Rating issues

This game features moderate violence. Magic and weapons, such as swords, can be used against a variety of human and fantasy characters. Bright lights and magical effects appear when characters are hit, with numbers showing the amount of damage inflicted. When enemies are defeated, they fall to the floor and their bodies quickly disappear. When the player’s character is killed, they are able to respawn. No injuries are shown and reactions to violence are non-realistic, with little to no reaction.

There is use of bad language such as ‘arse’ and ‘bastard’.

Other issues

This game offers players the opportunity to purchase in-game items, in the form of a currency (gems) which can be acquired via real-money transactions, or via exchange of the in-game currency (gold). These gems can be used to purchase cosmetic and aesthetic customizations, permanent convenience improvements (eg inventory extensions), temporary convenience improvements (eg boosters, one-time use level boosts), and a randomized reward box (the Black Lion Chest), which some parents or carers may want to be aware of. Parents, carers, or other responsible adults should check to see what is being offered before making any purchase on behalf of a child. It should be noted that the game can still be played without the need to purchase such items.
