  1. Chat restrictions rolled out to Australia, NZ and Netherlands

    10/12/2025

    Chat restrictions rolled out to Australia, NZ and Netherlands

    This past week saw the rollout of chat restrictions requiring age checks in Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands creating some very quiet servers for those players. Will their sacrifice shape facial age estimation for the rest of the platform? We also saw a suite of improvements to Roblox Communities making them more suitable for paid work, Product Intelligence APIs just in time to make the most of the holiday spending, and better dashboards and tools for developers to create. It's nearly Christmas and we're taking off a few weeks for the holidays. We'll be back 14 January 2026 with a look ahead at what Roblox has promised next year, so turn on notifications or join our Discord server (https://discord.lastlevel.co.uk) to know as soon as it's released.
