Video game changes: paid loot boxes banned for minors.
The new regulations classify paid, randomized boxes in video games (loot boxes) as a form of gambling. This change aims to protect children and teenagers from addiction and uncontrolled spending. From now on, access to such virtual draws will be restricted to adults only.
Key points
A ban on purchasing randomized boxes with virtual items (loot boxes) for individuals under 18 years of age.
Game developers will need to obtain a special permit to offer such mechanisms and verify players' ages.
Parents will gain more control over their children's in-game spending, reducing the risk of hidden costs and addiction.
