The Computer Entertainment Rating Organization (CERO), a non-profit organization that had suspended all operations since Wednesday, April 8, 2020, following the declaration of a state of emergency by the Japanese government, announced that it will resume operations on May 7, 2020.
After the resumption of operations, CERO will use shortened business hours and telework to cope with the situation.
The hours of operation will be shortened to 10:00 to 16:00 for the time being.
It was also announced that preparations are underway to introduce teleworking.
The declaration of a state of emergency has been postponed until May 31.
While many companies are closed due to the state of emergency declaration, the postponement of the state of emergency declaration was officially announced.
【#新型コロナウイルス】本日（5月4日）、下記の通り緊急事態宣言の期間延長を決定しました。
期間：令和2年4月16日～5月31日
区域：全都道府県
国民の皆様におかれては、引き続きのご協力をお願いいたします。— 首相官邸(災害・危機管理情報) (@Kantei_Saigai) May 4, 2020
Although game companies are now working from home or staying at home due to the emergency declaration, there were concerns that the schedule for new game releases would be postponed rapidly because the new games could not be reviewed until CERO, the review organization, resumes its operations.
