China Proposes New Draft Rules to Limit Minors’ Video Game Time
China's Ministry of Culture and Tourism announced new draft regulations on April 2, 2026, that aim to curb video game addiction among minors by restricting their gaming time and strengthening identification measures. Under the proposed rules, minors will be allowed to play video games for only one hour on designated days, specifically Fridays, weekends, and public holidays. The draft also calls for game operators to implement enhanced verification systems such as facial recognition and real-name registration to enforce these restrictions effectively. These regulatory efforts are consistent with China’s ongoing strategy to address concerns about excessive gaming among youth and to promote healthier digital habits. The ministry has invited public feedback on the draft rules as part of the formulation process.
