Roblox Corporation plans to integrate facial age estimation technology for all users engaging with its communication systems. This new technology will work in tandem with verified IDs and parental consent to enhance the accuracy of age verification. The aim is to provide a safer environment by restricting interactions between adults and minors unless they have met in real life.

According to Roblox, these enhancements are designed to deliver developmentally appropriate features and content to users. The company has stated that it aspires to set a benchmark that other gaming and social media platforms might follow. Previously criticized for its safety measures, Roblox hopes these updates will mitigate concerns raised by authorities and help ensure user safety in its expansive gaming environment.
