Roblox now available on PlayStation
PlayStation has just announced that the world's most popular game, Roblox, is now available on both PS4 and PS5 through backwards compatibility. So, no matter which PlayStation console you own, you can join in on the fun.
Download and play for free
Starting today (October 10), you can download and play Roblox on your PlayStation. The exact launch time is still uncertain, but it's expected that the store will refresh at around 6pm UK time. To get started, simply visit the store page via the PlayStation Store on your console and download Roblox.
A metaverse of endless games
Roblox is a metaverse where players can create and share mini-games with others. Its open nature has made it incredibly popular, especially among children, who enjoy the vast array of games available on the platform.
Exercise caution
While Roblox offers plenty of entertainment, parents should exercise caution when allowing their children to play. Due to the platform's lack of regulation, there is some questionable content that can be found on Roblox, including simulators and violent games. The platform has a recommended age of 13+, but statistics indicate that over half of its user base is below this age.
Unregulated gambling and potential dangers
It's worth noting that Roblox is not affiliated with any gambling websites; however, there are some sites that encourage users to gamble their in-game items. Additionally, the company has announced plans to introduce a dating app to the Roblox platform in the next five years, which raises concerns given the age of its users.
Protect your children online
If you allow your children to use Roblox, it's important to ensure they do not have an age-verified account. Having an age-verified account exposes them to potential risks, as strangers can message them through the platform. Several parents have reported instances of grooming via Roblox, so keeping a close eye on your children's online activity is crucial.
