Rating Summary
Banner Saga 3 is rated T for Teen by the ESRB with Alcohol Reference, Blood, Mild Language, and Violence. This is a strategy role-playing game in which players lead a caravan of warriors to battle a dark force that is consuming the world. From a ¾-overhead perspective, players can position characters around a grid-based area to fight enemies in turn-based combat. Characters use swords, axes, arrows, and magic attacks to defeat enemies (e.g., human soldiers, rat-like dogs). Battles are highlighted by cries of pain, impact sounds, and blood-splatter effects. Game text includes references to mead and drunkenness (e.g., “Clear as a mug of mead! Do you drink?” and “Many hopeful passengers, desperate or drunk, unwillingly back down to the city guards.”). The words “b*tch,” “a*s,” and “bastard” appear in the game.
