At it's most extreme, players are able to massacre towns and be apart of an assassin death cult. Originally Answered: Why did Skyrim receive an 18 age rating Because of all the murder, blood and gore, theft, drug abuse, desecretation of the dead, trespassing, law-breaking, shouting, and lolly-gagging.In my opinion a 12 and above would be okay for the game. If you allow them to play games like Sims (Sims probably have more sexual content then this game) Gears Of War (A really bloody game) or DeadSpace your kid should be mature enough to handle the game. Thanks for reading.There's blood, murdering, implied sexual activity in some of the books (nothing on screen), drug use (potions; they're all made-up drugs, NPCs just know about them), and there's beer & wine drinking. All the religious or racial issues in the story are fictional and pretty far removed from our world.

Why is Skyrim 17+ : It has to be rated M17+ because of obvious legal reasons, but the actual content inside the game barely meets that rating, but when it does, it's extremely mild. I would honestly give it a Teen rating for violence and language. But otherwise, this game will be a lot of fun.

Is Skyrim ok for a 10 year old

Due to the relatively few sexual themes, I would recommend 11+ for most, but a very mature 9yr old could also play this game. Parents should still occasionally check in on the game to make sure their child is not engaging in weird activities. Minor swearing (“D—n You!”), so if you have an issue with that be mindful.

Is Skyrim a 16 : Skyrim is rated M for mature (17+) due to it's violence, yet ratings are arbitrary. The major game play elements are exploration and combat.

What age is Skyrim appropriate for The game is rated M for mature. This is because of the general violence that you encounter, the language that you can hear, the drug use and alcohol, and people can be seen walking around in their underwear or strips to their underwear when you loot their armor.

Now is Skyrim age-appropriate Not really. It's not as gory as most games, but still features decapitation, a bit of blood, and other light cases of video game violence. Again, it's not that bad and maybe your child can handle it, but I don't generally recommend it.

Is Skyrim too violent

Violence & Gore (13)

A very mild "M" rated game. Violence is prevalent and decapitations are rare (mostly just some blood). At the beginning of the game a prisoner is put on a block and executioner cuts his head off with an axe. Blood gushes from the neck briefly.
