Classification (Publications, Films and Computer Games) Amendment (Loot Boxes) 2022

# Loot Boxes in Video Games Get Stricter Ratings Video games with loot boxes (randomised reward systems you can buy) would have to be rated R 18+ or banned outright under this proposal. Games would also need to display a clear warning whenever loot boxes or similar gambling-like features are included. The change aims to protect younger players from spending money on unpredictable in-game purchases, which work similarly to gambling. Right now, games with these features can get lower age ratings, meaning kids can access them more easily.
