GoreBox has been associated with real life incidents. The suspect of the 2025 Odintsovo school attack, Timofey Kulyamov was an active member of the GoreBox community, apparently playing and discussing maps designed as recreations of various mass shootings, including the 2019 Bærum mosque attack and has expressed his far-right views. In Singapore, a 14-year old boy reportedly got self-radicalized online by Islamic State (IS) extremist ideology and was issued a restriction order under the Internal Security Act in November 2025. He recreated IS attacks in GoreBox and Roblox in support of the group. The boy's right to travel was restricted after he expressed desires to go abroad and fight for the Islamic State. In Tacloban, Leyte, in the Philippines, two teenage boys, 14 and 15 years of age respectively committed a shooting at the San Jose National High School. The 14-year old was discovered to be an avid gamer of GoreBox leading to the temporary ban of the game in the country by the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center (CICC). Game developer Felix Filip has expressed condolences to the victims and vowed for coordination with authorities but has declined an invite to an inquiry in the Philippine Senate. On August 26, the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) issued a statement that the ban came after a mutual agreement with the developers and not a unilateral action by the government.
