Roblox is an American company founded in 2004 that operates a platform where users build and publish their own three-dimensional games and social experiences for other users to play. Its economy runs on a virtual currency called Robux, which players buy and spend inside experiences, and a share of which is paid out to the creators who make them, so the company earns from the platform rather than from producing games itself. Headquartered in San Mateo and listed on the New York Stock Exchange since 2021, it reports tens of millions of daily active users, skewed heavily toward younger age groups.
