The Australian Government has announced changes to the way video games are classified in Australia. Starting from September 22nd, 2024, two new rules will apply to games that include “in-game purchases with an element of chance,” such as loot boxes [now M], and games that feature “simulated gambling,” like casino games [now R18+].
This comes into effect pretty soon. I expect a few titles will get caught in the transition.
God I hope so, its a cancerous scheme and encourages using a phone while driving.
