The PEGI is a ratings system used in continental Europe, and was created in April 2003. It took over from ELSPA in the UK, and a number of other rating systems in other European countries, in total, 29 European countries now use it, although it has no legal effect (except in Finland). Ratings are sorted by age categories, with the mildest being 3+ (for ages 3 and up), and the strongest being 18+ (for ages 18 and up).
