Overview
- Roblox, which launched natively on PS5 Tuesday, promises up to 30% faster load times, smoother frame rates, and improved visuals.
- DualSense features are supported, and creators are being urged to use the controller’s haptics to deepen immersion in their games.
- Developers are tailoring experiences for console play, including a camera-lock system in Dueling Grounds and sticker-based chat in Dandy’s World to replace fast typing.
- Studios say PS5 power lets them push visuals and add more content, with teams behind NFL Universe Football and Scary Shawarma Kiosk citing clearer graphics and richer detail.
- The release lands as Roblox faces scrutiny over child safety, with reports of grooming and criticism of an age-estimation parental tool that can misjudge a child’s age.
