What is the age rating (UK) for Skyrim?

[Red Shift]

Unlike the MPAA, Pegi and BBFC are legally enforcable - a comparable offence to selling Alcohol.
Pegi changed from advisory to legal in 2012, replacing BBFC's authority on computer games, a year after Skyrim, but before DLC like Dragonborn.
Dragonborn was released as an 18, but as with Skyrim it has a 15 rating on the steam store page.

Looking at Amazon (co.uk) the 2011 base game that is available still has a 15 rating, but anything released later (such as Legendary edition & DLC) is 18.

Just seems strange to me - If I produced beer, for example, and they upped the minimum drinking age from 18 to 21, I wouldnt be allowed to sell my old stock to 18 year olds, would I?

You got any link to PEGI being a law?

Wikipedia says it's self-regulation, which a sector typically does to avoid a law.

edit: nvm, it seems to be legally enforced in some countries, but its not a EU law (yet)

For the UK and Australia it's supposed to be 18, but as we all know, there are 12 yr olds playing it on Steam.

Don't know where you got 18 for Aus from - it's MA15+ here.
