Roblox is introducing age verification for users in order to protect younger players and keep them safe while using in-game communication features.

Roblox will require age verification for all users who use chat features by year end, using facial recognition, ID checks, and parental consent.

Gaming platform Roblox announced a goal Wednesday to expand its new age estimation technology to all of its users by the end of the year. The move comes amid recent lawsuits filed against Roblox regarding its child safety regulations and accusations of grooming behavior experienced on the platform.
