Roblox has extended its mandatory age verification requirement to users in India. Users must now verify their age to access chat and other communication features on the platform. The company states this initiative enhances child safety and ensures age-appropriate interactions.

This expansion follows the initial announcement of a phased global rollout in November 2025. Wider implementation began in January 2026 in regions including the U.S. Roblox aims for this system to set a new benchmark for online safety in the gaming industry.

Roblox positions this as a critical step in its comprehensive safety strategy. This strategy features proactive content moderation and robust parental controls. The company indicated that over half of its global active users completed the verification process before the India launch.
