What is the ESRB Rating System?
The ESRB rating system is unique because it is designed to give consumers information about both age-appropriateness and content elements for computer and video games that may be of interest or concern. The ratings and content descriptors are designed to help parents and consumers exercise control over the computer and video games their children play. Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) has called the ESRB rating system the “most comprehensive system of any entertainment medium in this country.” What to Look For… Rating Symbols. The ESRB rating symbol tells consumers what age groups the product is appropriate for.
