ESRB and PEGI Working Remotely Amid Coronavirus Outbreak, No Delays Anticipated



Last week, Japanese ratings board CERO announced its plan to cease operations until May 6th to abide by newly implemented, coronavirus-related guidelines. The ESRB and PEGI, rating agencies in North America and Europe, respectively, are not similarly halting their operations. Both have instead begun working remotely. As such, the ESRB is expecting no delays with regards to its schedule. PEGI is only experiencing ?minimal impact.?
The two governing bodies confirmed their respective working conditions in statements to IGN. The ESRB reached out first, revealing that thanks to ?advanced planning,? remote work has been ongoing since March 16th due to coronavirus. A spokesperson told IGN, ?We have seen no delay in assigning ratings. We will continue to assign ratings remotely for as long as required.?
