Roblox's creators want to make sure the sexual content in its game is kept away from its younger players' eyes and ears. It's an essential addition to the title, given that over half of its daily users are under 13 years of age. Remy Malan, Roblox Corporation's trust and safety vice president, told the Wall Street Journal that the company planned to develop content ratings on Roblox so parents can limit the games their kids can play on the platform.

Malan didn't mention when the rating system will appear but added that these parental controls will be easy to find and use. That's important to make sure it gets used and protects those who need the protection.
