As the juggernauts of gaming and entertainment continue to forge new partnerships, Disney has made it clear that they are currently steering clear of any collaborations with the smash-hit online sandbox game Roblox, amid concerns for child safety. Roblox has rolled out a number of new security features that aim to protect all of its players, but many remain weary about the repeated lawsuits filed against the video game company that accuse Roblox of failing to remove predatory users and ensure the youngest fans have a safe space to play in.
Some of the newest safety features implemented by Roblox in light of recent litigation include a new facial age estimation program that prevents children from interacting with adults and an updated game rating system that removed any "unrated" experiences on the platform.

Gamers aren't happy about Roblox's new chat and age verification update, expressing multiple problems with the process and overall concept.
