Roblox recently announced at its RDC 2023 developers forum that it is finally bringing the hit online game platform to the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
Since its founding in 2006, Roblox has become one of the most popular virtual playgrounds on the Internet.
The platform not only allows users to play 3D virtual games but also design their own and offer them to others through the Roblox Studio.
This strategy has allowed the game base to grow and expand organically and has attracted millions of fans.
Roblox hosts over 63 million users daily who spend on average 2 1/2 hours in the virtual world
The company makes millions through a combination of in-game purchases, Premium member subscriptions, and in-game advertisements.
It is hard to go through any checkout line without seeing a Roblox gift card for sale.
The social aspect is arguably one of the biggest draws as user-created avatars can play games and interact with each other and with developers.
While Roblox is enormously popular with young players, the platform has come under criticism for a lack of parental controls which allow younger users to access more adult content.
The platform is available on Windows, MacOS, iOS, Android and Xbox but until now has not been launched through PlayStation.
That will change in October and will allow users to use their PlayStation 4 or 5 to enter and play on the Roblox account.
