US senators propose bill to legislate loot boxes and “pay-to-win” microtransactions
Three US senators have introduced a bill seeking to regulate “pay-to-win microtransactions and sales of loot boxes in video games” which are aimed at, or known to be played by, people under 18. Should it pass, it would bar games from selling randomised rewards, things that boost the natural pace of progression, or items that give an unfair advantage in competitive games. Even if this doesn’t become law, it’s interesting to see what such legislation might look like in the USA. The most important part is that they say “video games,” so if this bill passed it would surely become ILLEGAL to spell the word as “videogames.”
