Age Rating

Ananta has no ESRB or PEGI rating from a ratings board yet: as of Nov 1, 2026 its PlayStation Store page still reads "ESRB Rating Pending". What it does have are the automatic ratings each store gives from the publisher's own answers to a questionnaire, and they mostly put it at 12 or 13 and up: Teen on Google Play in the United States, PEGI 12 in the United Kingdom, 12+ on Apple's App Store. Steam's generated ratings are stricter, USK 16 in Germany and 18 in Brazil and Indonesia, and Google Play's Australian rating is M. The game is a free-to-play open-world action RPG with street fights, guns, cars and supernatural creatures, and the phone stores warn of paid random items. A board's rating may differ when one is published. What the game is about is on Ananta.

Quick facts

All read on Nov 1, 2026 from the App Store, Google Play in each country, and Steam.

What is Ananta rated?

On Google Play in the US it is Teen, for "Mild Violence, Suggestive Themes, Language", with the notes "Users Interact" and "In-Game Purchases (Includes Random Items)". Apple rates it 12+. These are self-reported ratings: Google Play's come from the International Age Rating Coalition questionnaire the publisher fills in, given in each country's own system, and Steam marks its ratings for Germany, Brazil and Indonesia as generated rather than reviewed by a board. When the ESRB or PEGI rates the PlayStation 5 version, the result may be higher or lower. Grand Theft Auto 6, for comparison, is rated M by the ESRB and PEGI 18 (Ananta vs GTA 6).

Why do the ratings differ by country?

Each country's system weighs things differently. The same questionnaire gives PEGI 12 in the UK for horror and mild swearing, USK 12 in Germany with "Increased Incentives to Buy" listed among the reasons, and M in Australia, where chance-based purchases are named. Steam's generated ratings are separate and stricter: USK 16 in Germany for "Fantasy-Gewalt" (fantasy violence), 18 in Brazil for fantasy violence and 18 in Indonesia for online interaction and violence (read Nov 1, 2026).

What does the App Store warn about?

Apple's listing rates Ananta 12+ with these advisories: "Frequent/Intense Cartoon or Fantasy Violence", "Infrequent/Mild Horror/Fear Themes", "Infrequent/Mild Mature/Suggestive Themes", "Infrequent/Mild Simulated Gambling", "Infrequent/Mild Contests" and "Loot Boxes" (Apple's store data, read Nov 1, 2026).

Does Ananta have loot boxes?

The stores say some paid items are random, and NetEase has not said which. The App Store lists "Loot Boxes", Google Play "In-Game Purchases (Includes Random Items)" and Steam "Chance based in-game purchases". Characters are not among them: NetEase's producers say every playable character joins through the story and play, with no character gacha, and that the main things sold are outfits, skins and vehicle customization (Monetization).

Is Ananta OK for kids?

That is for each parent, but the stores' own labels put it at 12 to 13 and up. The violence is mostly hand-to-hand street fighting, guns, car chases and fights with supernatural creatures called Chaos (Combat, Chaos); the game has online interaction, as the PlayStation Store's "Online play required" and the stores' "Users Interact" notes say; and it sells items, some of them random. Apple's Screen Time and Google Play's parental controls can restrict purchases on phones.
