Roblox is one of the biggest games of 2016 that you’re not playing
Roblox is ten years old. It runs on PC, VR systems, smart phones, tablets, and the Xbox One. It has 30 million active monthly players, with a regular 900,000 concurrent user count. It’s a Lego knock-off. It’s a game creation system. It’s a storefront for user-made in-game content. It’s a social sandbox playground. It’s a massively multiplayer juggernaut. It’s a gigantic hit and you’ve probably never even looked at it. Co-founder and CEO Dave Baszucki spoke with GamesBeat to reveal some surprising information about the game’s success.
Top creators are now pulling down $50,000 a month in revenue.
Baszucki is bullish on VR, predicting that gamers will embrace the social aspects of the technology. Roblox is free to play and available here.
