Currently the new ratings will only apply to games released after June. “Without applying the rules to current games the policy will do little to protect the children who are already playing them,” Tofield said.
Overall I think the changes are positive but I think they definitely should apply to all and not just new releases.
Games lacking any way for users to report or block players online will receive a PEGI 18 rating.
Also this is interesting. I’m not sure how common it is to have no controls for this in a game but it should certainly make devs/publishers think seriously about it.

Don’t worry… they’ll figure out how this somehow applies to Balatro.
I can see how it becomes difficult to implement for already-released games that already have boxed copies in stores.
I wonder if this loophole will make all games currently out MUCH more valuable to investors.
