After looking into 10 different popular titles, the Dutch gaming authority found four breached its Betting and Gaming Act. The commission said the content of these loot boxes was determined by chance and, crucially, the prizes and the associated accounts could be traded outside of the game and thus have a market value.

The Belgian Gaming Commission has similarly ruled that some loot boxes systems used in video games can be considered illegal. They have reached out to the developers of FIFA 18, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Overwatch to explain the consequences if they don't comply with a removal or modification of their loot box systems.

There is also the potential fine of 800,000 Euros ($974,000) and a five-year-long prison sentence. IF any minors being involved in a potential case, the sentence and fine could be doubled.
