Age Recommendations

ℹ️Ages 3-5

Not recommended for most children aged 3–5. The game is fast-paced, involves shooting and online chat exposure.

ℹ️Ages 6-8

Generally not recommended. While graphics are non-graphic/pixelated, real-time online matches and open chat make it unsuitable without close supervision and chat disabled.

ℹ️Ages 9-12

Caution advised. Ages 9–12 can play with parental controls: disable chat, limit session length, and turn off purchasing or require parental approval for buys. Emphasize not trading account info.

ℹ️Ages 13-15

Generally appropriate for most teens with guidance. Encourage disabling public chat if concerned and discuss safe online behavior and spending. Monitor any account purchases (Battle Pass, skins).

ℹ️Ages 16-18

Appropriate with normal online-safety guidance. Players should be aware of in-game purchases, trading scams, and potential toxic chat; use reporting tools and account protection features.
