New EU rules could shake up game monetization 🎮

RoastedGames reports that the European Commission has proposed the Digital Fairness Act, targeting loot boxes, pay-to-win mechanics, and confusing virtual currencies. If passed, companies would have to clearly show real-world costs and odds for items, and these features would be disabled for minors by default. Fines and consumer compensation would be possible for violations.

The article notes the proposal still needs debate before becoming law. Do you think this will lead to fairer games, or will companies find workarounds?
