Roblox Kids and Roblox Select
Roblox have been making some big changes recently, and that now includes ‘age-gating’ so that children and young people get the experience according to their age. This means that there are now 3 types of Roblox accounts:
- Roblox Kids – for children 5-8 years.
- Roblox Select – for children 9-15 years.
- Roblox – for anyone 16+.
For any users that have not completed an age check, they will be put into the youngest users category and parents can update or correct a child’s age through a linked account. The link below will take you to a simplified breakdown of the different accounts.
