Generalizing earlier results on dust collapse in higher dimensions, we show here that cosmic censorship can be restored in gravitational collapse with tangential pressure present if we take the spacetime dimension to be $N\ge6$. This is under conditions to be motivated physically, such as the smoothness of initial data from which the collapse develops. The models considered here incorporating a non-zero tangential pressure include the Einstein cluster spacetime.
