This week, Roblox Corporation has unveiled Roblox Reality, an ambitious project that aims to deliver a DLSS 5-like AI powered model to level up the visuals available in the popular game creation platform. In the announcement blog post, Senior Vice President of Engineering Anupam Singh described Roblox Reality as a hybrid architecture that splits responsibilities between two components: the existing Roblox Game Engine (running on cloud servers), which handles all authoritative game logic like physics, collision, state synchronization, and player positions, while a new Video World Model (called "Super Upsampler") runs on edge infrastructure powered by H200/B200-class GPUs and handles the visual output, generating […]

We may be halfway into March 2026, but we're still in that time of the year when data firms and analysts are publishing their recaps of the previous year in the video game industry and reports for what's ahead. Global analytics firm Newzoo is the latest one to arrive and has published its PC and Console Gaming 2026 Report, which shows a few things we've seen before in other reports, as well as some new insights around some of the most popular genres in video games, like battle royales.

Roblox has existed for decades now, and while the online platform has always been popular, it’s seen a notable surge in players over the past couple years – with its total player counts matching that of entire consoles. Now, not only has Roblox surpassed the likes of Steam and PlayStation, but it's beaten out both platforms (and then some) combined.

As reported by PCGamer, industry analyst Matthew Ball published a study analysing the monthly hours spent in Roblox and compared it to the likes of Steam and PlayStation.

According to Ball, throughout 2025 Roblox saw an average of 10.25 billion hours spent in-game each month across over 150 million daily active users.

Putting this into context, the amount of monthly time spent in Roblox exceeded that of Steam (roughly 5 billion hours); PlayStation (around 4.3 billion hours) and Fortnite (a little under 1 billion) combined.

It is worth noting that the PlayStation numbers only account for those actually playing games, and does not include the console’s usage with regards to Netflix, YouTube and the like.

While there is no arguing that Roblox has become far more than just a game creation engine, its continued success and ever-increasing growth is still impressive to witness. It will be interesting to see whether Roblox will ever hit its ceiling.
