The following is a report. It can be seen that it should be July 4, 2017.
After nearly a month of debugging and internal testing, Tencent will launch "The King" on July 4. "Glory" as a pilot project, and took the lead in launching the "Three Pillars" of a healthy game anti-addiction system. That is, three measures, including limiting the daily login time of minors, upgrading the growth protection platform, and strengthening the real-name authentication system, provide a better environment for ensuring the healthy growth of minors.
"Honor of Kings" will launch the most stringent anti-addiction policy
The first step: limiting the daily login time for minors
This is the most stringent policy in the history of the Chinese gaming industry. Among the strict anti-addiction measures, "Honor of Kings" will carry out corresponding reminders, offline and other operations for players based on the cumulative game time or single time duration to achieve the purpose of preventing game addiction.
Among them, minors under 12 years old (including 12 years old) are limited to playing for 1 hour a day, and it is planned to launch a feature that prohibits logging in after 9 pm; minors over 12 years old are limited to playing for 2 hours a day. Players who exceed the time limit will be forced offline from the game.
In addition, "Honor of Kings" will gradually add the "Consumption Limit for Minors" function, working together with the existing growth protection platform to limit the irrational consumption of minors.
“Honor of Kings has been welcomed by the majority of users since its launch. At the same time, we are also concerned that if young people lack sufficient self-control and unreasonably allocate game time, it will also affect their "Study and life," said a person in charge of the "Honor of Kings" development team. "The game itself brings happiness, but excessive gaming will not bring happiness to ourselves or our parents, so we hope to adopt more stringent measures." ”
In fact, as early as 2007, the State Administration of Press and Publication issued the “Notice on the Implementation of an Anti-Addiction System for Online Games to Protect the Physical and Physical Health of Minors”, targeting computer-based client games. and web games, which stipulate that players should be guided to self-control through the control of game income. The specific rules are: 3 hours is a "healthy" game time for minors, and a total of more than 5 hours is an "unhealthy" game time, and the player's income is reduced to 0.
“Although there are currently no clear regulations on anti-addiction in mobile games in China, we decided to take the lead in making some efforts and attempts, hoping to dispel parents’ worries by setting clear play time limits and forced offline settings. ," the person in charge said.
The second step: Binding hardware devices to achieve one-click banning
The Growth Guardian platform will be upgraded again. In February this year, Tencent took the lead in launching the platform to assist parents in monitoring the healthy behaviors of their minor children’s game accounts.
The relevant person in charge of Tencent said that the upgraded Growth Guardian platform will significantly lower the operating threshold. Parents can complete the binding in simple steps and grasp the login and recharge status of their children's games.
At the same time, the platform will add hardware device binding functions to prevent minors from bypassing parental supervision by logging in with multiple accounts. This allows parents to ban play on designated children’s devices with one click.
It is reported that the platform currently covers more than 200 game products from Tencent, including "Honor of Kings". As of now, there are nearly 700,000 effectively bound accounts on the platform.
The third step: strengthening the real-name authentication system
As early as May this year, Tencent has begun to implement real-name authentication in its mobile games. Accounts that have not completed the real-name registration process on the Tencent platform will not be able to enter the "Honor of Kings" game.
The development team of "Honor of Kings" stated that further strengthening measures will be implemented for the real-name authentication system in the future.
“Healthy Internet access for minors is Tencent’s long-term and key system project. We will continue to explore and work with all sectors of society to create a healthy online environment for teenagers.” The relevant person in charge of Tencent emphasized, “We also call for Parents spend more time with their children so that they can feel the warmth of growing up. ”
