Meta is expanding what type of content is allowed in the virtual worlds that people make for Horizon Worlds, its platform that lets people create VR spaces for shared experiences. The company has added an 18 and up tag for user-created worlds and updated its policy<\/a> to allow creators to include \u201cmature\u201d content that was previously banned altogether. According to UploadVR<\/em><\/a>, creators who have published worlds received an email saying they have to manually mark whether their world is mature or safe for all audiences \u2014 if they don\u2019t, it will be restricted to 18 and up by default.<\/p>\n

Based on a Wayback Machine archive<\/a> of Meta\u2019s Horizon Mature Worlds Policy page<\/a> from April, this means Meta is now allowing content that was previously banned. The page used to say that sexually suggestive content, depictions of \u201cregulated goods or activities\u201d like weed and alcohol, and graphically violent content were completely off-limits in Horizon Worlds. Now, you may be able to include those types of things in your world, as long as you mark it as mature.<\/p>\n
