Roblox is a gaming and a storefront platform that allows players to play games online, meaning it is not just a game; it's a platform where users may play games created by other users.
What is Roblox Spatial Voice?
Roblox Spatial Voice is a feature from the platform that allows users to have voice conversations within spatial voice experiences. The above feature is available to all users who have verified their age to be 13 or older.
By accessing their Settings page, 13+ age confirmed users can opt-in to use this service. They'll be able to use Spatial Voice Chat in any Roblox game that supports it after that.
Reminder: Accounts under the age of 13 can be authenticated, but they will not be able to use spatial voice chat.
Fun fact, according to Polygon, more than half of American children under the age of 16 played Roblox in 2020.
