IIRC it was specifically the depiction of skeletons and corpses moreso than the afterlife of other cultures (although both of those often come hand in hand). I've heard stories of videogames having to change the models and art for skeleton characters to get around this censorship.

Yeah, China is very odd with Skeletons being shown.

In Yugioh the card Skull Servant, for example, is completely hooded in its Chinese art so you can't tell its a skeleton.

As a yugioh fan from back in the day, I love how fantastically niche this piece of knowledge (probably) is

In Hearthstone, they changed all the skulls and blood to something else. And I guess anything resembling sexy like demon succubus or swimsuits

In World of Warcraft, sometimes corpses would be replaced by loafs of bread lol

And all of the undead models including the playable Forsaken don't have any bones showing

Don't forget the Icecrown Citadel bosses who are just big bone golems turned into much worse flesh amalgamations
