Video game publishers have been urged by the UK’s online safety regulator to improve protections for children playing popular titles like Fortnite and Minecraft. The regulator highlighted concerns over in-game chat features, which it says expose young players to harmful content and interactions. Companies were given clear instructions to implement stronger safeguards, including default restrictions on direct messaging and better moderation tools. Failure to comply could result in further regulatory action, signaling a push for greater accountability in the gaming industry.
Fortnite and Minecraft also told to 'lift their game' by online safety regulator.
