Tencent Gaming has launched a specialized "2026 Summer Minors Protection Campaign." This initiative goes beyond the existing weekly playtime restrictions for minors mandated by national regulations, introducing an upgraded "AI Dual-Engine Anti-Addiction" model.

The newly deployed "AI Patrol" feature within the health system significantly strengthens supervision. An in-game "AI Guard" will dynamically assess player risk levels based on real-time behavior analysis.

Building upon traditional facial recognition checks, the system now incorporates AI-powered multi-modal verification, including voiceprint detection, age estimation, and detection of proxy play characteristics. This creates a full-chain intervention process from early warning to graded verification, substantially raising the barrier for account misuse or bypass attempts.

The Tencent Guardian Platform has been upgraded to an AI dialogue version, integrating the company's Hunyuan and DeepSeek large language models. This allows parents to manage all aspects through conversational interaction.

Whether querying a child's gaming account, analyzing accounts under the parent's name, setting restricted play periods, or initiating facial recognition checks, the AI intelligently interprets the parent's intent. It guides them step-by-step through the process and proactively offers actionable suggestions when potential issues are identified.

Concurrently, Tencent is providing adolescents with more opportunities for interest development beyond gaming through initiatives like Future Classrooms, Future Music Workshops, and the fun fitness app "Goose Buddy Sports."
