With Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe today declaring a month-long state of emergency in various parts of the country, the Computer Entertainment Rating Organization (CERO) today announced a temporary halt to the ratings process.
The state of emergency includes requests for people to stay at home and nonessential businesses to close in Tokyo -- where CERO's offices are located -- and six other prefectures.
"Since reviewers visit our office to conduct review, it is not possible for our staff and reviewer to work from home," the group said. "For this reason, all operations, including review (including those under review), will be suspended from today until May 6."
