Roblox is a creative phenomenon for the young and young-at-heart, where players can create and share their own immersive 3D experiences or try out the near-limitless library of those crafted by others. With more than 65 million daily active users, it will undoubtedly become one of the biggest games on the platform when it hits PS5 and PS4 on 10th October.
A free-to-play title, Roblox players on PlayStation platforms will have access to the full catalogue of experiences, meaning there will be plenty to see and do from day one. Those looking to flex their creative muscle, however, might be disappointed to note that the use of Roblox Studio, the proprietary engine on which these creations are crafted, will require the use of a PC. This is how Roblox functions on Xbox, after all, and so perhaps we shouldn't be surprised, with many using the platform for the social side of things alone.

This comment may be a bit controversial, but I think Roblox is a great platform. When the company isn't being stupid.
There are some really high quality games made on Roblox from small teams, and Roblox's graphics are looking better day by day, although I still appreciate the classic graphics and games. I also think the addition of 17+ games and embracement of virtual reality is great.
That being said, there are some of course some business decisions that I believe hurt Roblox's playerbase and developers, because remember, there are people making a living off of this platform. I do hope that as Roblox expands to other platforms, the company will be able to listen to their community more.
So are we free to downlaod and play all creations? Or is there limits as where does the MTX come in to play since its a free to play game.
I hope they add DualSense support when making a Roblox game for PS5.
While I admit that the creative aspects of Roblox are good — it’s never bad to get people interested in making games — Roblox has turned into a platform that exploits children and drains their parent’s bank accounts.
Like what needs to be done to other game economies — ones that use loot boxes, excessive microtransactions, etc. — this needs to be monitored and regulated to make it safer for children to play.
