The World Health Organization has included “gaming disorder” in a draft of its 11th International Classification of Diseases, which will be published next year.

The WHO’s guidelines are used by member countries to classify and diagnose medical conditions. Many private and government organizations take the WHO’s guidelines into account when drawing up their health care budgets.
