Belgian Gaming Commission gives opinion on loot boxes

After just a week of investigation (see previous reports) the Belgian Gaming Commission has issued its opinion that the use of loot boxes constitutes gambling, finding:

“The mixing of money and addiction is gambling.”

Belgium’s Minister of Justice, Koen Geens has also weighed in, saying, “Mixing gambling and gaming, especially at a young age, is dangerous for the mental health of the child.”
