Roblox Unveils New Age-Tailored Accounts for Safer Play
Roblox introduces 'Kids' and 'Select' accounts to provide age-appropriate access to games and chat, ensuring a safer online experience for young users.
Roblox, the popular online gaming platform, is taking a significant step forward in ensuring the safety and well-being of its young users. The company has announced the introduction of two new account types - 'Roblox Kids' and 'Roblox Select' - that will provide age-appropriate access to games and chat features.
The 'Roblox Kids' account is designed for users aged five to nine, offering a more curated and restricted experience. These accounts will have access to a select set of games and features that are deemed suitable for the younger demographic, with heightened safety measures and content moderation to protect them from potentially harmful or inappropriate content.
On the other hand, the 'Roblox Select' account is tailored for users aged nine to 15. This account type will provide a wider range of games and features, while still maintaining a level of age-appropriate oversight and content filtering. The goal is to strike a balance between giving older users more freedom and autonomy while ensuring their safety remains a top priority.
