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

In addition to confirming ages for individual accounts, Roblox also said it plans to adopt new systems that will limit communication between adults and minors unless they already know each other offline.

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.
