The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB)

The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) is an independent, voluntary ratings system for computer and video games established by the Interactive Digital Software Association in September 1994.

Since its formation, the ESRB has rated more than 7,000 computer and video game titles.

ESRB is also counseled by an advisory board composed of experts in the fields of academia, consumer rights, children’s advocacy, and education. The board provides guidance and insight about the effectiveness of the system.

The ESRB has set up a toll-free number that has received more than 1.5 million calls for information on the ratings since they were established in 1994.

ESRB also operates a web site (www.esrb.org), offering millions of consumer’s instant access to information about ratings, including rating descriptors, news and information, a parents’ guideline and an overview of the ESRB.
