COD is a great game for teens and young teens alike, and is so popular between the ages of 12-17. Many parents may be skeptical about letting their child play this game, but lots of the features that make COD seem bad can be turned off in settings.

The Video Standards Council (VSC) rated this game PEGI 18 only suitable for those 18 and over. This rating has been given due to violence against vulnerable and defenceless characters, the motiveless killing of innocent characters, graphic violence and the use of strong language.
