Jucătorii vor trebui să-și dovedească vârsta, conform EU Kids Act: Ce se schimbă în gamingul online? • Newsweek România

The EU Kids Act introduces significant changes to online gaming in Europe, requiring age verification for players. This legislation aims to enhance the safety of minors in digital environments by enforcing strict access conditions for game publishers and developers. Players must now prove their age before creating accounts or downloading games, moving away from simple self-reporting methods. The act also establishes a special regime for users under 15, necessitating parental consent for account access. Companies failing to comply may face substantial fines, prompting major gaming platforms to update their authentication systems.
