Roblox said it is rolling out voice chat for those who are 13 and older on its user-generated content platform.

Having access to voice chat in Roblox can be a game-changer for many experiences on the platform.

Whether voice chat ever rolls out for younger users or not, Roblox seems well aware that keeping a virtual environment with voice chat feeling safe and friendly is a steep challenge.

Roblox already has dumb AI options with specific mini-games, and increased bot support could help create new innovative games. The games platform had over 43 million daily active users as of Q2 2021.
