The Office of Film and Literature Classification (OFLC) is the government agency in New Zealand that is responsible for the classification of all films, videos, publications, and some video games in the country. It is similar to the Australian agency of the same name, however it is a completely separate entity and often ratings in Australia are different than in New Zealand. Additionally, the ratings themselves vary slightly from the Australian ones.


Grand Theft Auto game ratings

Every game in the Grand Theft Auto series apart from GTA Advance has been rated R18 by the OFLC in New Zealand. It is worth pointing out that a rating for GTA Advance is not found in their database, so its actual rating is unknown. Another noteworthy point is that the 2nd version of GTA San Andreas maintained its R18 rating.

The following games are rated R18

The following games' ratings are unknown
