Advice for consumers
This game has received a PEGI 12 because it features depictions of non-realistic looking violence towards human-like characters. Not suitable for persons under 12 years of age.
Brief outline of the game
Open-world action RPG, set in the fantasy world of Teyvat, in which players take on the role of the 'Traveler', who sets off on a journey to find a lost sibling.
Content specific issues
This game contains frequent depictions of non-realistic looking violence towards human-like characters. Impacts result in the appearance of bright lights and magical effects, with numbers showing the amount of damage that has been inflicted. Characters occasionally let out pained cries and stumble backwards, although no visible injuries are shown. When a character has been defeated, they stagger backwards and then dissolve away into flecks of blue light.
Other issues
This game offers players the opportunity to purchase in-game items in the form of in-game currency, which some parents or carers may want to be aware of. Parents, carers or other responsible adults should check to see what is being offered before making any purchase on behalf of a child. It should be noted that the game can still be played without the need to purchase such items.
