{{wp|PEGI}} had already confirmed that Detective Pikachu will be a 'PEGI 3'. The reasoning behind this was because it contains occasional, mild violence in a pixelated context but is suitable for all persons.
Additionally, a classification posted on {{wp|PEGI}}'s site has revealed that a video game under the title of "Detective Pikachu" will be rated PEGI 3. This likely refers to the video game {{bp|Great Detective Pikachu ~Birth of a New Duo~}}, which is currently exclusive to Japan and has not been announced for release anywhere else. Jake McKnight‏, who works in information security for {{bp|The Pokémon Company International}}, [https://twitter.com/usrbinpikachu/status/940825123065647104 confirmed] that this was a leak of a codename of an upcoming project.
