Belgium’s Gaming Commission explains that loot boxes can contain game items obtained in an apparently random way, with or without payment. It says its 2018 report examined whether loot boxes should be considered gambling and points to a preliminary opinion from 14 September 2022 and a workshop report from January 2024.
The commission’s materials inform games suppliers assessing how loot boxes may be treated under gambling rules.
