Developers are holding back game features due to online safety laws

In this week’s edition of The Game Business, we tackle the legislation that is forcing developers to introduce age verification and other measures into its games, and how that is impacting studios. To help us understand all that, we’ve enlisted the help of media, tech and IP legal veteran Isabel Davies (currently plying her trade at Wiggin), who joins us as this week’s Guest Host. Davies and Chris also chat about ‘dark patterns’, Capcom’s console concerns, the blockbuster success of Hollow Knight: Silksong, and a whole lot more. Including the news that we are doing another live show, this time in London. This is a public episode.
