Games rated PEGI 12 can include violence in a fantasy environment or non-realistic violence towards human-like characters, whereas games rated PEGI 16 or 18 have increasingly more realistic-looking violence. In games rated PEGI 7 this can only be non-realistic or non-detailed violence. The game contains depictions of violence. The glamorisation of the use of illegal drugs and of the simulation of gambling, and explicit sexual activity should also fall into this age category. The adult classification is applied when the level of violence reaches a stage where it becomes a depiction of gross violence, apparently motiveless killing, or violence towards defenceless characters.

The use of bad language in games with a PEGI 16 rating can be more extreme, while the use of tobacco, alcohol or illegal drugs can also be present. This rating is applied once the depiction of violence (or sexual activity) reaches a stage that looks the same as would be expected in real life. Sexual innuendo or sexual posturing can be present, while any bad language in this category must be mild. Video games that show violence of a slightly more graphic nature towards fantasy characters or non-realistic violence towards human-like characters would fall in this age category. Very mild forms of violence (implied, non-detailed, or non-realistic violence) are acceptable for a game with a PEGI 7 rating.

Game content with scenes or sounds that can possibly be frightening to younger children should fall in this category. A very mild form of violence (in a comical context or a childlike setting) is acceptable. No bad language should be heard. The game should not contain any sounds or pictures that are likely to frighten young children. The content of games with a PEGI 3 rating is considered suitable for all age groups.
