ESRB ratings are designed to give consumers information about game content, so they can make informed purchasing decisions. ESRB game ratings have two parts: rating symbols suggest what age group the game is best for, and content descriptors tell you about particular content elements that may be of interest or concern. The ESRB ratings are not meant to tell you what to buy or rent or to serve as the only basis for choosing a product. Rather, consumers should use the ESRB ratings in conjunction with their own tastes and standards when purchasing or renting a video game.
