Roblox Introduces Limiteds For Creators To Make, Sell Limited-Run Avatar Gear

Gaming platform Roblox has announced ‘Limiteds’ for its user-generated content programme so that creators can sell digital items that are only available in limited quantities. In addition to what creators currently earn from creating and selling, the company said the creators will also benefit from a 10 per cent original creator payout every time the item is resold. Moreover, the company said that to encourage a healthy marketplace where creators create high-quality items and are thoughtful about the quantity they publish, there will be an upfront payment due before Limited items are published. Meanwhile, Roblox has announced that it is working to roll out tests for its two new artificial intelligence tools in the coming weeks — generative AI materials from a text prompt and generative AI code completion — to help increase ‘development velocity’.
