When will UK get PEGI symbols? No one knows yet

The question on everyone's lips. When will the new UK PEGI symbols turn up on British games? Try to calm yourself down: it hasn't been decided yet.

The Video Standards Council just told GI it hasn't even started talking to government yet as to when we'll see the guidelines appear at retail.

"We are going to start discussions as soon as possible with the government. It's a partnership approach, we're not waiting for them to act, but we do have a lot to discuss," said VSC boss Peter Darby.

"We're waiting for government legislation and we want to implement these changes as soon as possible to go forward with a final plan."

We've been told this morning that some developers are already adding the symbols to packs for year-end release, while at least one platform holder is completely in the dark as to when we'll see the new symbols in stores.
