Company Report

Roblox Continues to Expand Its Player Base Globally

Roblox operates an online video game platform that lets gamers create, develop, and monetize games for other players. The firm offers developers a hybrid of a game engine, publishing platform, online hosting and services, marketplace with payment processing, and social network. There is no entry cost to try out Roblox or the vast majority of user-developed games. Thus, to drive booking growth and keep the Roblox model churning along, the new user must purchase and spend Robux, the platform’s tender.

Bulls

Company Profile

Roblox operates an online video game platform that lets young gamers create, develop, and monetize games (or “experiences”) for other players. The firm effectively offers its developers a hybrid of a game engine, publishing platform, online hosting and services, marketplace with payment processing, and social network. The platform is a closed garden that Roblox controls, earning revenue in multiple places while benefiting from outsourced game development. Unlike traditional video game publishers, Roblox is more focused on the creation of new tools and monetization techniques for its developers then creating new games or franchises.
