Russia restored access to Roblox Corp.’s gaming platform after concluding the company had complied with local legal requirements, according to Interfax.
Roblox fully complied with Russian laws regarding user safety and the online gaming service is once again available throughout the country, the news service reported Wednesday, citing the Digital Ministry.
Russia banned Roblox in December for inappropriate content that communications watchdog Roskomnadzor said could “negatively impact the spiritual and moral development of children.”
Russian officials held consultations with the platform’s owners and Roblox agreed to implement “a comprehensive set of measures to further protect children,” the Digital Ministry said, according to Interfax. Roblox also committed to combating “the spread of inappropriate content on the platform.”
Earlier Wednesday the state-run Tass news service said that users already had access to Roblox. The Digital Ministry and Roskomnadzor had appealed the previous day to law enforcement agencies to lift the prohibition on the gaming platform.
