The bare minimum. Apple & Google have forced game developers to do this for awhile now & if anything, China was the country that forced this action with there own loot box regulation.

So yes Nintendo, Xbox & Sony are finally catching up. No applause. https://t.co/uX5RnzNvV9

Games with gambling mechanics (i.e. loot boxes) disclosing x% chance to get an epic drop doesn't fix the core problem.

After all knowing the jackpot rate of a slot machine doesn't stop it from being gambling nor does it stop gamblers from playing. https://t.co/QGsdStiNEs

Great, but you might agree that the use of the word "odds" reinforces how this is gambling which should be kept from children under 21 and regulated by gaming (gambling) commissions.

Measures like publishing odds and providing tools to help consumers manage random item purchasing is a great step. I also don't see these measures meaningfully changing the forecast and overall outlook for such purchases. https://t.co/VCrgvDhg5G
