Would you allow kids under the age of 13 years to play battle royale games? Well, I think kids should not be allowed to play battle royal games especially if the game is too violent. Studies have shown that violent games have detrimental effects on kids. Instead of shooting and fighting games, they should be encouraged to play sandbox games where they can explore their creativity.

The game doesn't give kids the resources to actually commit acts of violence. That is up to the parent. There are plenty of people out there that follow the classic meme:
And just because being creative is a good thing, doesn't make it beneficial for their future. Have you seen the fanfictions on the internet nowadays that you could also call "creative". It's like the way you worded it suggests there are somehow two polar opposites. I'd let any kid who doesn't destroy controllers play Super Smash Bros. Melee as I played it at a rating younger than I was supposed to. I think it's how they are raised, and it's outside the realm of the games they play.

I would check the ESRB rating for games, and avoid letting kids play games which are not rated for their age group. I don't want to get in trouble by the kid's parent's or school if a kid decide to attack someone or something after playing a game like Fortnite, Pubg Battleground, and other battle royale game which have more violent themes.

Depends on the game, so long as it isn't mindless.
Epic games with their Fortnite games says hello. Kids are so much into the game that it earned them millions of dollars in 2019.

I really hate how shareholders of the company are from China. Like some no-name games like Fortnite is only free because that's the way China wants their games too. I'd like to see how many Chinese kids are violent because of it. We may never know but at least if you pay for a game it might be yourself liable.

When it comes to Battle Royale games, I believe some games are more for younger ages whereas others are for more mature ages. For example, Fortnite by Epic Games isn't too violent at all. Of course, your shooting at other players, but it's not bloody or gory like Warzone and some other games. With that being said, I believe it is up to the parent as to what they allow their child to play.

And then you wonder after they play Fortnite would they be more likely to watch a show related to the game like Rick and Morty.
Anyone that is not above 14 years shouldn't be playing this game. I don't even see a point in that as long as they are still younger, they should play some other games.
