At first I thought it was only Java edition but now it seems that all platforms will have it. We have to upload things like Digital ID or other methods to Yoti, a third party company, to verify our age if we want to use social features such as the chat. This means if we don't even in single player the chat will be removed. Then we can't even use coords or commands in Java single player. As of now it is unclear how and when exactly they will add this but they said on their website it is next month sometime. Not sure if it will be online only and if it will be a certain update or all updates. I doubt mods will be able to get around this. Mojang will probably tell them to be removed.

I can't find any reliable information about this. I have the email which they sent to my second account (which I let my son use while supervised)

The email I got was about restricting communication on the Xbox app such as unknown players, discord, steaming, etc. but I don't have any email specifying what changes will be in Minecraft itself. It said games will function as normal but the restrictions are specifically on Xbox.

The articles I find online seem to be quoting parts of the Xbox email. If anybody can find an article refeerencing a solid source please do share.

Someone did link it in one of the first comments I think. Maybe they took it down? I looked on the website but I couldn't find it either.

Oh yes I've just found that. The article seems consistent with the Xbox email I received. I'm guessing the article is weirdly spinning this from a Minecraft perspective when it's probably it's Minecraft and every other game on Xbox.

Other than being required to have an Xbox account I don't use it. I'm happy not verifying if it's only Xbox which is limited.
