Have you ever tried to check out a new game onRobloxonly to find that you’re unable to access it because the experience is unrated? If so, you may be curious to know exactly why that is, and what, if anything, you can do to fix the problem.
Thankfully, there is a way that players can get around the “This experience is not accessible because it is unrated"Robloxerror, and the process for doing so is relatively straightforward. This guide will explain what’s required and how the platform’s rating system works.
How to Fix “This Experience is Not Accessible Because it is Unrated” Roblox Error
To fix the “This experience is not accessible because it is unrated” error,Robloxplayers will need to verify that they’re aged 13 or above. To do this, they should head tothe Account Info section of the Settings menuand fill in their birthday. Sadly, those who have already done so using a date that would make them under 13 will need to provide ID in order to change it, or have their parent change it for them if they have parent privileges enabled. If neither of these is an option, they may need to create a newRobloxaccount using their correct date of birth.
Why Can’t I Access an Unrated Roblox Experience?
The reasonRobloxwon’t allow players who are under the age of 13 to play unrated experiences is thatunrated games may contain mature content that’s inappropriate for younger players. Most of the time, this isn’t actually the case, but without confirming this for themselves,theRobloxteam would rather not take any chances. Once the game has been rated, players will be free to access it, assuming they’re old enough to do so.
Roblox Content Maturity Labels
Robloxhas four Content Maturity labelsto help players and their parents get an idea of the kind of material that each game contains. Those aged thirteen or over will be able to play the vast majority ofexperiences on the platform, including unrated ones, although there are a handful that even they won’t be able to access. Restricted experiences contain mature content and can only be played by those who have provided some form of identification to verify that they’re aged 17 or above.
