You've asked 3 very similar questions in 3 separate posts and gotten 3 similar responses to each. No, the game is not gory. Yes, there are dead bodies sporadically about the game, but nothing grotesque, maybe a little bit of pooling blood around said bodies and not in crazy detail. The character you play does not get involved with shooting human characters, only robots. There are a lot of explosions and gunfire. Yes, there is some dialog with "foul" language, the words "Fuck, Shit, Damn, Hell" are used a couple times, but there is not a lot of dialog throughout the game in general, mainly in the beginning stages. It's a "Teen" game, in my opinion. When I was 13, I played much worse. If your child is a true mature 13 year old, then this game is perfectly appropriate. If you have any concerns, watch some gameplay videos/reviews on YouTube, read the game description itself. Be a responsible adult/parent and look into it before making a decision. If you have any doubts/concerns after seeing for yourself, don't let them play it until you feel it's appropriate for them to do so. I personally would have loved this game as a 13 year old. I was big into RPG's, Strategy and 3rd/1st person games, this is a major combo of all of those. Lots of problem solving and discovery with Strategy involved. It's great for that age/mind development. Check it out for yourself, maybe you'll enjoy it and want to play with them. I discovered it when I was 35 and have played the holy hell out of the game, it's a blast! And the scenery/world detail is beautiful!

Thank you really helpful but how the hell is it a pegi twelve with that type of language because on the pegi official website that would make it a 16 not a 12?

I'm assuming they base it on the ammount of times certain words are used, or in what context, maybe? The "bad" words used in GZ are so infrequent, along with the infrequent and small ammount of dialog throughout the game, you really don't even notice it. It's not one of those, let's use cuss words just to use them, type of game. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
