Kids and younger teens might soon be unable to play Genshin Impact's gachas. The developer behind the game has agreed to block players under 16 years old from making in-game purchases without parental consent in order to settle a complaint from the Federal Trade Commission.

The Federal Trade Commission announced on Friday that Genshin Impact developer Cognosphere has agreed to a $20 million settlement and several restrictions on how it sells its loot boxes and manages children’s personal data.

Cognosphere, the publisher of anime-style fantasy video game "Genshin Impact," has agreed to pay $20 million to settle U.S. Federal Trade Commission allegations that the company violated a children's privacy law.

The allegation that Genshin Impact misleads children about the odds of winning "Five-Star Prizes" in part relates to the Event Banners and "influencer campaigns", which the FTC says "give players the impression that they will have better odds of obtaining the five-star prize being promoted than they have in reality."

The company will pay, and make changes to its disclosures

Mixing Genshin Impact's team-based combat and open world with survival game style base building, the Arknights Endfield beta is now open.

The FTC's complaint alleges that Singapore-based Cognosphere deceived children and other users about the real costs of in-game transactions and the odds of obtaining rare prizes.
