Apple generates appropriate age ratings based on your answers to the age rating questionnaire in App Store Connect. In compliance with local regulatory requirements, apps in the Games and Entertainment categories distributed on the App Store in Korea receive a region-specific age rating based on these answers. We’re making two changes to age ratings in the Republic of Korea: one taking effect today and the other later this year.

First, starting today, if your app has received an official rating from the Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC), you can now override your app’s existing age rating for the App Store in Korea to any of the region-specific ratings (All, 12+, 15+, or 19+) by providing your GRAC Rating Classification Number (RCN) with your app’s next version submission.

Second, starting in October 2026, two content descriptors will move from an age rating of All to 12+ for the App Store in Korea:

• Infrequent profanity and crude humor
• Infrequent mature or suggestive themes
