What are the "Games" ?

• Under "the Game Industry Promotion Act", the definition of Game material includes programs, video clips, machinery and devices which are used for leisure, learning and exercise.

Are all games required to have a rating?

• Every game material (PC packages, PC online, Mobile, Arcade, Video-Console, Downloaded, Embedded games, etc.) has to be presented and rated by GRB. Under "the Game Industry Promotion Act", every game developer and distributor must have their games rated prior to a game being released to the public. (Exceptions: * game materials for exhibitions or tournaments recommended by an administrative authority.

* game materials commissioned by a Presidential degree for educational, religious, or public interests purposes.)

How can I find and use the ratings to determine if a game is appropriate for my family?

• The Age Ratings and Content Descriptors were developed to serve as a guide to help consumers make informed decisions about which games might be appropriate for their children and family. Clearly displayed on the front of every arcade game machine, computer and video game box, on the upper right side of online game screens, the starting screen of mobile games sold in Korea, you will find an Age Rating Symbol and Content Descriptors that suggest age appropriateness for the game. Please check Age ratings and content descriptors before enjoying your game.
