If you're wondering what's going on with the global split boards now that CERO in Japan is temporarily closed, it's business as usual.
An update from IGN reveals ESRB in America has been working at home in recent weeks. So far, there are no problems moving the measurements remotely. Here is the official statement:
Thanks to the good planning ahead, as of March 16 the ESRB has been working remotely because of the COVID-19 outbreak. We did not see any delay in allocating ratings. We will continue to allocate estimates far beyond the need.
Over in Europe, European sports rating agency PeGI is also working remotely. The impact of the outgoing measures was very small:
In short: yes, we are currently working remotely with little impact on our performance. When this situation began to occur across Europe a few weeks ago, we quickly found a way to continue our daily activities by working remotely. Given that PEGI (Brussels) works with two independent managers located in The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, and working with publishers worldwide that we don't have to meet personally, collaboration has long been a part of our daily routine. But now it happens in homes instead of separate offices.
We have notified companies using the PEGI system that, until local authorities announce a change to the existing measures, we will work in this way. But so far, the impact of the epidemic and the resulting measures have been minimal.
Unless something major or problem occurs to the publisher or development end, games in these regions will continue to be rated.
