The regulation, introduced by China in 2016, requires mobile game makers wishing to have in-app purchases or charge for their content, to get a license from a unit of the country's censors. The approval number needs to be provided to Apple by June 30.
"Accordingly, please provide this number to us by June 30, 2020 for any paid games or games offering in-app purchases that you intend to distribute in China mainland. You can enter your game's approval number and date below. To learn more, view the full text of the regulation. If you have questions, contact us."
But it could make it harder for smaller independent games makers to get games published.
