NetEase Games, a major player in the gaming industry, has announced a significant update across its entire product line with the introduction of an "Underage Mode." This initiative builds upon the existing anti-addiction systems, marking a substantial step in safeguarding younger players.

The new Underage Mode provides several protective features, including a one-click option for content filtering and access to the "NetEase Parental Care Platform." This platform enables efficient management and supervision of game content, aiming to shield minors from inappropriate material and potential cyberbullying.

Already implemented in 34 pilot products, this mode reflects NetEase's commitment to creating a safer gaming environment for underage users. As concerns about online safety and gaming addiction continue to grow, NetEase's proactive approach highlights the industry's increasing responsibility towards protecting younger audiences. The new mode is expected to set a precedent for other gaming companies, emphasizing the importance of integrating child safety measures into digital entertainment platforms.
