Roblox is a user-generated online gaming and creation platform operated by Roblox Corporation. It is not a single traditional game; instead, it hosts a large collection of experiences created by users and independent developers. Roblox provides tools for creating, testing, publishing, and monetizing these experiences through Roblox Studio.
Players can access experiences covering many different genres and gameplay styles, including role-playing, simulation, racing, adventure, social experiences, and competitive games. Because the individual experiences are created by different developers, gameplay, features, graphics, and system requirements can vary substantially from one experience to another.
Roblox supports cross-platform play between supported desktop, mobile, Xbox, PlayStation, and Meta Quest devices. On consoles, Roblox is available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S.
The platform was launched in 2006 and has developed into a large ecosystem combining gaming, creation, social interaction, and a creator economy. Roblox Corporation describes its platform as consisting of the Roblox Client, Roblox Studio, and Roblox Cloud.
