Korea calls on Apple and Google App Store to end P2E games

The government began banning the distribution of P2E games on December 29 and asked it to remove existing P2E games from Google Play and Apple's App Store. Yesterday, the Sports Council (GMC) of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism called on a large telecommunications industry to "decide which games require in-app purchases before gaming." To prevent the spread of what is seen as a financial need, it is nearly impossible for GMC to display the work of P2E game developers in popular mobile stores. In South Korea, it was understood that the game's proceeds could not exceed 10,000 wins (approximately US $ 8.42). The government's attempt to get straight into the App Store and restrict the development of P2E games is a new experience, but in reality home game developers are facing legal issues selling P2E games in stores. at home since last April. The main problem is that some gaming apps are not getting the age required by the App Store. (Co-manager)
