You might be here to find out, though, if\u00a0<em>Minecraft Legends\u00a0<\/em>is suitable for kids, even with all the battling.<\/p> <p>The short answer is that\u00a0<strong>yes<\/strong>, you should be fine letting kids play\u00a0<em>Minecraft Legends<\/em>.\u00a0<em>Minecraft<\/em> is marketed towards all age groups, and Mojang does a good job of ensuring that it can appeal to the whole family. There&#8217;s some light fantasy fighting, but it&#8217;s definitely crafted in a manner that&#8217;s absolutely safe for kids to play. If you need more of a breakdown, though, we&#8217;ve got that.<\/p> <h2 id=\"minecraft-legends-esrb-rating\"><em>Minecraft Legends\u00a0<\/em>ESRB rating<\/h2> <p>The Entertainment Software Rating Board, or ESRB, rating for\u00a0<em>Minecraft Legends\u00a0<\/em>is Everyone 10+. Also known as E10+, this is an in-between step from the &#8220;E for Everyone&#8221; and &#8220;T for Teen&#8221; ratings. Essentially a PG, as compared to G or PG-13 in movie ratings.<\/p> <p>The E10+ rating only cites one factor for the rating, &#8220;Fantasy Violence.&#8221; It also notes that &#8220;Users Interact,&#8221; meaning there is multiplayer, and &#8220;In-Game Purchases,&#8221; indicating there are items sold for real money in-game.<\/p> <p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/reviews\/minecraft-legends-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our own experience<\/a> playing\u00a0<em>Minecraft Legends<\/em>, there is fantasy fighting, but much tamer than you&#8217;d see in even superhero flicks. Skeleton archers shoot arrows and golems punch things, but it&#8217;s often comical bumps on the noggin. When units fall in battle, they just do a little &#8220;ugh&#8221; and then poof into thin air. It&#8217;s cartoon violence.<\/p> <p>If you need a comparison point for this rating, look no further than\u00a0<em>Super Mario Odyssey<\/em>, another family friendly title that <a href=\"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/super-mario-odyssey-gets-the-highest-esrb-rating-in-series-history\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">garnered an E10+ rating<\/a>. It also had fantasy violence, mostly in the form of Mario bouncing on a Koopa&#8217;s head.<\/p> <p>It&#8217;s every parent&#8217;s own decision, but\u00a0<em>Minecraft Legends\u00a0<\/em>is\u2014in our experience\u2014a pretty kid-friendly game. It&#8217;s Helm&#8217;s Deep by way of <em>Looney Tunes<\/em>, so you&#8217;ll not run into anything too excessive here.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":808,"featured_media":373320,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"article_type":"","gamurs_wordpress_blocks_hide_tags":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_is_hidden":false,"apple_news_is_paid":false,"apple_news_is_preview":false,"apple_news_is_sponsored":false,"apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":"\"\"","apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"footnotes":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false},"categories":[21983],"tags":[232,21956,22196],"internal-label":[],"invoiceable_action":[],"article_type":[],"coauthors":[{"id":808,"display_name":"Eric Van Allen","user_login":"EricVanAllen","user_nicename":"ericvanallen"}],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n<title>Is Minecraft Legends safe for kids?
