About The Webinar
Gaming Genres
What are video game genres?
Much like movies, music and countless other mediums of entertainment, video games are categorised into genres.
A genre is just a type of game; it might be a shooting, sports, driving, or adventure game.
Some genres tend to have safer content than others but knowing the key differences will provide a good basis for understanding what games might contain.
For more information on the associated risks and online safety tips for parents and carers, watch our explainer video, available to those with a National Online Safety membership.
