This month we are sharing parent/carer guides from National Online Safety, that once again focus on gaming and provide useful insight into two platforms. FIFA 23, like its many predecessors, is a massively popular football simulator featuring lifelike recreations of thousands of real-world players, drawn from teams around the globe. In the guide, you'll find tips on a number of potential risks such as age-inappropriate chat, scammers and addiction. A long-awaited sequel to 2016’s massively successful Overwatch, Overwatch 2 is a futuristic shooting game with a focus on teamwork and strategy which gives it an extra dimension to the majority of titles in the genre. In the guide, you'll find tips on a number of potential risks such as violent gameplay, in-game purchases and voice chat.
