Roblox Debuts TikTok-like Video Feed for Users 13 and Older

Roblox, an online gaming platform, has introduced a new short-form video experience called Roblox Moments. The feature is designed to help users discover experiences through video clips of other users' gameplay. The beta launch is for users aged 13 and older, and the feature aims to provide a TikTok-like experience within the platform.

Roblox, the popular online gaming platform, has introduced a new feature called "Roblox Moments." This short-form video experience is designed to help users discover and engage with other players' gameplay experiences. The feature, which is currently in beta for users aged 13 and older, aims to provide a TikTok-like experience within the platform.

Roblox Moments allows users to capture, edit, and share clips of their gameplay, with the option to trim clips to up to 30 seconds, add music, and write a description before sharing. Users can also scroll through a feed of gameplay moments shared by the Roblox community, react to the clips using emojis, and jump into an experience right from a video. This new feature is set to enhance the social interaction and discovery aspects of the platform [1][2].

In addition to the new video experience, Roblox has also announced increased earnings for creators. The company is increasing the DevEx (Developer Exchange) rate, allowing creators to earn 8.5% more when they convert their earned Robux into cash. Now, 100,000 earned Robux will equal $380, rather than $350 when converted to cash [1][2]. This move is part of Roblox's ongoing efforts to foster a thriving economy for creators on the platform.

Roblox is also introducing new AI tools to boost creators' abilities. These tools will enable creators to generate fully functional objects, such as vehicles and weapons, based on textual prompts. Additionally, the platform will offer real-time voice chat translation, text-to-speech, and speech-to-text APIs to enhance the immersive and interactive nature of experiences [1][2].

The updates announced by Roblox come amid ongoing lawsuits over child safety concerns. The company has recently expanded its age-estimation technology and partnered with the International Age Rating Coalition (IARC) to introduce age and content ratings for games and apps on the platform [1][2].

The gradual rollout of Roblox Moments will allow the company to test and refine moderation to ensure all content is age-appropriate. All content is subject to moderation before posting, and users can report inappropriate videos [1][2].
