Chinese authorities have limited the time for computer games for minors - a limit of 3 hours a week

Chinese authorities limit the time teenagers can spend playing computer games to 3 hours a week. Bloomberg reports.

Earlier in China, there were already restrictions on the pastime of minors in computer games: in 2019, Chinese teenagers under the age of 16 could play for 1.5 hours a day. Now this period has been reduced to 1 hour on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and holidays and only from 20:00 to 21:00 local time.

All of these restrictions are part of the local adolescent gambling program. What consequences this will entail for the gaming industry in the country is not yet clear.
