Roblox is now allowing users to create experiences with a 17+ age rating, which may include 'violence, blood or crude humour'. Players will have to verify their age with a government-issued ID before they can access 17+ content.
Until now, the game platform has grouped experiences into three age categories – All Ages, 9+ and 13+., it’s been announced that a new 17+ category will soon be added.
“The fastest-growing age group on Roblox is 17-to-24-year-olds and in 2022, 38% of our daily active users were 17 and over,” the statement reads. “As a natural evolution, we’re now allowing creators to make content specifically for this audience.” “Now, creators will be able to offer experiences for those 17 and older that feature more mature themes and storylines like in TV shows or stand-up comedy. These experiences may contain more violence, blood, or crude humor.”Players will not be able to access 17+ content unless they verify their age, by both uploading a photo of government-issued ID and taking a selfie .
