United States of America: Texas Attorney General filed a lawsuit against Roblox Corporation over alleged deceptive practices and child endangerment (State of Texas v Roblox Corporation)

On 7 November 2025, the State of Texas, through its Attorney General, filed a lawsuit against Roblox Corporation in the District Court of King County, Texas, under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA). The petition alleges that Roblox Corporation engaged in deceptive trade practices by marketing its online gaming platform as safe and family-friendly while failing to implement adequate protections to prevent the exposure of minors to sexual exploitation, grooming, and inappropriate content. The filing cites failures to implement adequate safeguards, to verify user identities, and to prevent adult predators from interacting with minors. It further claims Roblox misrepresented its safety features and failed to warn parents of ongoing risks. The State seeks injunctive relief, civil penalties of USD 10'000 for each violation of the DTPA, restitution, and legal costs.
