Bad updates, 2024 to 2026, Mandatory Global Facial Age Estimation (January 2026), 
Divided "Versions" of Roblox (June 2026): The platform will be split into "Roblox Kids" (under 9), "Roblox Select" (9–15), and standard Roblox (16+). Unverified users are restricted to 9+ games only, effectively locking them out of a majority of the platform, Age-Based Social Silos: Chat was restricted so players could only communicate within specific age brackets (e.g., 9–12 year olds only with other 9–12 year olds), Social Hangout Restrictions: Games classified as "social hangouts" were restricted to players aged 13+, DM Blocks for Minors: Parental controls were updated to automatically block direct messages for all users under 13. :/
