Previously available on PC, Xbox, Meta Quest VR headsets and mobile devices, the creative multiplayer titleRobloxis one of the most popular video game properties on the planet.
According toBussinessofApps.com,Robloxmade an eye-watering $2.2 billion in 2022, so you can bet your bottom dollar that Sony and PlayStation fans have been eagerly awaiting its arrival on the blue brand. That being said, we’re sure the parents of the10-year-old who spent £2,500on the game or the parent’s of the child who splashed anentire family’s Christmas budgetweren’t quite as excited as some.

“Robloxon PlayStation… it’s so bad,”warnedRedditor Professional-Paper75 sparking discussion on the thread. “The entire experience is horrible. They’ve put zero effort into localising this to PlayStation. The menus are gross to navigate and often glitch out being unable to leave a conversation and the movement is hypersensitive”
The Redditor continued: “The UI is basically an identical copy and paste fromPC, complete withXboxbutton indicators. The avatar customise/purchase screens don’t load items, don’t appear to be able to quickly equip purchased items and are just not fun to navigate. I’ll admit I’ve never played muchRobloxin the past, but goddam - how do people enjoy this so much?”

Robloxhas been soaked in controversy with strong allegations of its practice of encouraging children to make its content with accusations of low payments to creators.
“Welcome to tomorrow!Robloxoutsources all of its development costs to you! The player! It’s video game socialism! Except these are kids making the content! Nothing like no-cost child labour for profit! JoinRobloxtoday, the no-cost, all-loss video game! Make those billionaires even more rich!” exclaimed IxoraRains. “I watched a really eye-opening YouTube video (fromPeople Make Games) about that last year. I’d completely forgotten how bad a practice it is until reading your comment,” Andyman286 responded.
