Roblox will launch facial age checks as a requirement for all users who want to access communication features beginning next month. The gaming platform has also implemented age-based chats to limit communication between minors and adults.
Starting Tuesday, the process will be available as a voluntary feature across Roblox. Beginning the first week of December, Roblox will start to enforce the age-check requirement in select markets, including Australia, the Netherlands and New Zealand. The requirements are set to expand to the U.S. and other remaining markets where Roblox’s chat rooms are available by early January 2026.
Specific dates for the rollout have not yet been specified.
