Video Game Classification
Video game classification is a system used to categorize video games based on their content, themes, and intended audience. Organizations like the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) and Pan European Game Information (PEGI) assign ratings that help consumers understand the suitability of a game for different age groups. These ratings consider factors such as violence, language, and sexual content.
The classification process involves reviewing the game's content and gameplay mechanics. Each rating typically includes a brief description of the reasons behind it, guiding parents and players in making informed choices. This system aims to promote responsible gaming and ensure a safe experience for all users.
