Popular social game platform Roblox has begun its voluntary age checks for players using in-game chat features. The change brings age-based communications to the platform, allowing players to communicate only with users within their age group.

Roblox is now requiring selfies, verified either with a government ID or through an AI review, to use its chat functions.

Roblox is getting ready to roll out its latest safety feature at a time when it is confronting a growing number of lawsuits from states and families that claim the popular gaming app falsely advertised itself as safe for children.
