According to CTOnews.com news on July 4, the out-of-the-box / draw-out mechanism can be said to be the main way to make money for most free games, such as the card bag of "hearthstone Legend" and the supply box of "Watchman Vanguard".

According to game researcher Leon Y. Xiao, the Dutch government is planning to improve regulations on internal purchase of video games, one of which is to ban "booty boxes" in games.

In response, Leon Y. Xiao wrote an email asking a spokesman for the Dutch Foreign Ministry on June 30 and received an official email response on July 3, making it clear that the Netherlands was planning to ban "booty boxes" in the game.

On June 29, Dutch Consumer Affairs Minister Adriaansens publicly called for a ban on "booty boxes" in the Netherlands, corresponding legislation, and extended to the entire European Union, so that consumers will always be well protected.

The Dutch consumer affairs minister called the "booty box" a virtual treasure box in the game, and users paid for it but didn't know what kind of reward they would receive after buying it.

He wants the EU to impose restrictions on App in-house and in-game purchase rules, especially if children pay to play a game or unlock more options in an app.

He stressed: as far as the cabinet is concerned, "booty boxes" will be banned in any case. These are virtual treasure boxes in the game, and users have no idea what reward they will receive after purchase.

To the best of CTOnews.com 's knowledge, several European countries have announced such legislation or ideas, which is why Blizzard's previous Diablo: immortality has not been sold in Belgium or the Netherlands, nor has it been on the shelves of Belgian and Dutch App Store or Google Play stores.
