The need to verify age, which is gradually reaching several countries of the world, including the United Kingdom, France and the United States, cannot be stopped in pornographic sites and social networks.
Thanks to the files found by the players and transmitted on social networks, we can see that Rockstar, the study behind the saga Grand Theft AutoPrepare such an option for online mode, GTA online.
A mandatory scan to access certain functions
Filtration specialist on the series, the Tez2 user has shared a series of images that show an option for age verification. A week earlier, he explained that Rockstar had that option in his boxes, that the study would be deployed in several regions of the world little by little.
The page that is supposed to allow this verification is not active at the moment. However, other images show that it will be possible to “scan your face” or “scan your identity document.”
In addition, during scanning, it is indicated that the operation is necessary “to comply with the law in jurisdiction (SA)”. Unless the last minute change, the kick, therefore, should affect the United Kingdom, which has imposed this verification for a few weeks, sometimes with some problems. The Discord social platform has markedly complied with it.
This would allow the study to limit the content visible by its minor users. GTA online It allows you to customize many elements of the sets and, therefore, do the visible things that may not adapt to the youngest.
It is important to keep in mind that this should only worry GTA onlineThe online mode of Grand Theft Auto. Even if the entire game “is not recommended for children under 18”, it is not prohibited for a minor to play it. It seems likely GTA 6 worry in the same way as GTA 5 (which includes this mode online today). The new episode of the series is expected for May 2026 in Xbox Series and PlayStation 5.
