The PEGI rating system is used on games to classify them into different age groups that they are intended for. This is enforced by the law and anyone under the age of what is displayed playing or watching the game would be considered illegal and the parents will be taken accountable. There are different types of PEGI ratings starting from 3 to 18 (3,7,12,16,18). Here is a showcase of all of the images/icons you might find on a game :

The coloured boxes on the top are the typical things you might see and the boxes below are a couple or a single reason why it is quite high. Like you can see in the image, it could be bad language or gambling. All games will include a PEGI number but not all of them include a content descriptor. If we take GTA for example, GTA has all of these content descriptors in its game, making it for sure a PEGI 18 rating.

PEGI 3

PEGI 3 technically means that it is made for young children and has nothing inappropriate or any type of fear. It could include a very mild form of violence in the game in a comical context of childlike setting.

PEGI 7

Anything that is more frightening than a PEGI 3 would be here. It also includes a very mild form of violence as well but non-detailed and non-realistic.

PEGI 12

Games that show more violent and more graphic scenes towards fantasy characters or non-realistic human like characters would fall in this category. sexual posing can be present in the game as well. Non-realistic violence only though.

PEGI 16

PEGI 16 is real life violence or sexual activity with bad language. The games could also include drugs, alchohol and tobacco.

PEGI 18

Friends: What about that huge pile of of games and books and movies and stuff?
