Indonesian Game Rating System

What Indonesian Game Rating System does

Indonesian Game Rating System (IGRS), also known by its Indonesian name Klasifikasi Permainan Interaktif Elektronik (KPIE), is the official government-mandated classification platform for electronic interactive games distributed in Indonesia. Operated under the Directorate General of Digital Ecosystem of the Ministry of Communication and Digital of the Republic of Indonesia and headquartered in Central Jakarta, IGRS was established pursuant to Ministerial Regulation of Communications and Informatics Number 2 of 2024. The platform assigns age-based ratings across five tiers (3+, 7+, 13+, 15+, 18+) against eight regulated content categories including Horror, Online Interactions, Character Appearance, Violence, Sexuality/Pornography, Drugs, Blood, Language, and Gambling.

The platform's core product is a web-based classification portal hosted at igrs.id, which maintains a public registry of classified titles and their publishers. The technology stack is web-based with image assets stored on AWS S3, and the service is delivered as a self-service registration flow for game publishers and developers. Two adjacent products extend the platform: an Independent Game Registration portal that lowers onboarding friction for smaller developers, and a separate Addiction Consultation service hosted at adiksi.igrs.id that addresses gaming addiction support as a public-interest extension of the classification mandate.

IGRS operates as a regulatory service rather than a commercial business. There is no publicly disclosed pricing, fee schedule, or licensing revenue; operations are funded through government budgetary allocations. The platform serves two segments: Indonesian game publishers and developers (primary) who must register titles to legally distribute in Indonesia, and Indonesian gamers and parents (secondary) who consult ratings for purchase decisions. As of the website's current state, the registry contains 5,223 classified games from 3,118 publishers. A public notice dated 18 June 2026 indicates an evaluation and temporary suspension of classification services, and BSRE (Badan Siber dan Sandi Negara) provides supporting cybersecurity infrastructure.

Core offering

IGRS is a government-operated web platform that classifies electronic interactive games (video games) for the Indonesian market by assigning age-based ratings (3+, 7+, 13+, 15+, 18+) and tagging content across eight categories (Horror, Online Interactions, Character Appearance, Violence, Sexuality/Pornography, Drugs, Blood, Language, Gambling). Game publishers and developers submit their games through a self-service portal at igrs.id to obtain mandatory classification under Ministerial Regulation Number 2 of 2024, while parents and gamers consult the public registry to inform purchase and play decisions. A companion addiction consultation portal (adiksi.igrs.id) extends the platform's social responsibility scope.

Direct peers

• Pan European Game Information (PEGI): European age-rating system for video games, used across most EU markets. Directly comparable to IGRS in scope (age labels plus content descriptors) and role (gatekeeping for game distribution).
• Australian Classification Board (ACB): Australian government body that classifies films and games, including age ratings and consumer advice. Operates a comparable regulatory classification mandate to IGRS for digital games.
• Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC): South Korea's official game rating body under the Korea Communications Standards Commission. Closely mirrors IGRS as a government-backed/recognized classification authority for electronic games.
• Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB): North American video game content rating body that assigns age and content descriptors to games. Direct functional equivalent to IGRS, operating a parallel self-regulatory/regulatory classification framework for game publishers.
• Unterhaltungssoftware Selbstkontrolle (USK): Germany's voluntary game rating body, recognized by the state for youth protection. Provides age and content ratings for games distributed in Germany, functionally analogous to IGRS.
• Computer Entertainment Rating Organization (CERO): Japan's self-regulatory video game rating organization providing age classifications and content descriptors. Operates a near-identical model to IGRS for the Japanese market.

Regional players

• Russian Age Rating System (RARS): National age rating label in Russia for games, movies, and other media. Provides a regionally comparable regulated age-classification framework akin to IGRS.
• Departamento de Justiça, Classificação, Títulos e Qualificação (DJCTQ): Brazil's government classification authority that assigns age ratings to games and other media. Comparable as a Latin American state-led equivalent to IGRS but operating in a different geography.

Broad incumbents

• International Age Rating Coalition (IARC): Cross-jurisdiction rating tool used by multiple national authorities (including ESRB, PEGI, GRAC, USK) to assign age ratings. Relevant as a broader incumbent in the same rating-as-a-service category IGRS operates in.
