The game developers report that Apple prohibits the use of realistic weapon models in Vision Pro games. By the way, this applies to games with both security and augmented reality.
A Reddit user under the nickname AkDebuging said that Apple did not allow his new VR game for Vision Pro in the App Store, in which you need to kill zombies with weapons. The presence of weapons, in fact, was the problem.

A developer under the nickname Rodrigotakase had to replace realistic weapons in his AR game with fake models, otherwise the game would not pass moderation. He believes that Apple said this to prevent people from simulating killing other people and animals.

It looks like the gun restriction only applies to the Vision Pro. There are many games with realistic weapons and other military equipment on the App Store for iPhone and iPad.
One user noted that only independent developers face this problem. According to him, Apple offers curators to major game studios who can discuss various intricacies for months. Therefore, when such a game gets moderated in the App Store, it goes through quickly because it meets all the recommendations.
Most commentators believe that limiting realistic weapons in games kills the full gaming potential of the Vision Pro.
