Washington state sues Valve over loot boxes, calling them illegal gambling that exploits minors.
A Washington state class-action lawsuit accuses Valve of operating an illegal gambling system through loot boxes in games like Counter-Strike and Dota 2, alleging the design mimics casinos with addictive mechanics and profits from real-money transactions.
Filed by Hagens Berman, the suit claims Valve failed to implement age verification or parental consent, exposing minors to exploitative systems.
It follows similar actions by New York’s attorney general and international regulatory scrutiny, raising broader concerns about in-game monetization.
Valve has not responded.
