Yes. The undead villain rides a similarly undead horse. They both collapse after they loose the power keeping them alive.
The player's companion horse cannot die and will be automatically rescued if badly injured.

Wild animals are killable e:g crows and jackals
The game encourages capturing and saving the animals
The animal companions cannot die

Only if the player decides to.
The optional dog companion can also be trained to fight enemies, though this isn't portrayed as damaging or stressful for the dog. Enemies may also fight back if attacked by him.

Possibly.
There is mention of a cat which was presumably on motherbase when it was destroyed. A character with amnesia wonders aloud where the cat is, which may be upsetting.

Yes!

A character has something placed in their vaginal cavity, which must then be painfully removed.
Several male soldiers have their genitals mutilated by someone they are implied to have assaulted.

There's no breaking of any bones IIRC but some arms and legs are dislocated and are fixed soon after.

Yes, there are many disturbing torture scenes that are majorly relevant to the story. Though these cutscenes can be skipped.
There is no torture that the player must play through, unlike other games in the franchise.

Skip the cutscene if you don't want to see it on-screen.

Yes! Many times during one episode. While it actually happens offscreen it is heard and the aftermath is clearly visible. This is also during an already distressing gameplay segment.

Yes. Multiple people are shown graphically taking their own lives to save those immediately surrounding them. Either because they are infected with a deadly disease or have a bomb planted on them.

Another character is claimed to have died by suicide but this turns out to be false.

A nonverbal character is discriminated against and people attempt to force her to speak because they believe she's hiding something. A paralyzed man has his mobility aid disabled and used against him on seperate instances. Both of these incidents are treated as acts of caloussness.

Quiet's outfit is pretty suggestive. If you don't like that you can unlock a more realistic military uniform called Grey XOF after your bond with her reaches a certain point.

You get covered in blood as you get shot and there's plenty of gore in some of the cutscenes such as when the villain gets his limbs shot off so he can feel the same pain the protagonists felt.

No, but the plot revolves around the threat of nuclear weapons. If the subject matter gives you anxiety just avoid this series all together.
