Roblox and BMG to develop new opportunities for artists and songwriters Hello friends, and welcome to Week in Review.Last week, I talked a bit about NFTs and their impact on artists. If you're inundated with NFT talk just take one quick look at this story I wrote this week about the $69 million sale of Beeple's photo collage. This hype cycle is probably all the result of crypto folks talking each other up and buying each other's stuff, but that doesn't mean there won't be lasting impacts. That said, I would imagine we're pretty close to the peak of this wave, with a larger one down the road after things cool off a bit. I've been wrong before though...This week, I'm interested in a quick look at what your kids have been talking about all these years. Yes, Roblox.If you’re reading this on the TechCrunch site, you can get this in your inbox from the newsletter page, and follow my tweets @lucasmtny.David Baszucki, founder and CEO of Roblox - Roblox Developer Conference 2019(Photo by Ian Tuttle/Getty Images for Roblox)The big thingRoblox went public on the New York Stock Exchange this week, scoring a $38 billion market cap after its first couple days of trading.Investors rallied around the idea that Roblox is one of the most valuable gaming companies in existence. More than Unity, Zynga, Take-Two, even gaming giant Electronic Arts. It's still got a ways to go to take down Microsoft, Sony or Apple though... The now-public company is so freaking huge because investors believe the company has tapped into something that none of the others have, a true interconnected creative marketplace where gamers can evolve alongside an evolving library of experiences that all share the same DNA (and in-game currency).The gaming industry has entered a very democratic stride as cross-play tears down some of the walls of gaming's platform dynamics. Each hardware platform that operates an app store of their own still has the keys to a kingdom, but it's a shifting world with uncertainty ahead. While massive publishers have tapped cloud gaming as the trend that will string their blockbuster franchises together, they all wish they were in Roblox's position. The gaming industry has seen plenty of Goliath's in its day, but for every major MMO to strike it rich, it's still just another winner in a field of disparate hits with no connective tissue.Roblox is different, and while many of us still have the aged vision of the image above: a bunch of rudimentary Minecraft/Playmobile-looking mini-games, Roblox's game creation tools are advancing quickly and developers are building photorealistic games that are wider in ambition and scope than before. As the company levels-up the age range it appeals to -- both by holding its grasp on aging gamers on its platform and using souped-up titles to appeal to a new-generation -- there's a wholly unique platform opportunity here: the chance to have the longevity of an app store but with the social base layer that today's cacophony of titles have never shared.Whether or not Roblox is the "metaverse" that folks in the gaming world have been hyping, it certainly looks more like it than any other modern gaming company does.SHENYANG, CHINA - MARCH 08: Customers try out iPhone 12 smartphones at an Apple store on March 8, 2021 in Shenyang, Liaoning Province of China.

This week, Apple released some critical updates for its devices, fixing a Safari vulnerability that could allow attackers to run malicious code on a user's unpatched devices. Update your stuff, y'all.TikTok gets proactive on online bullying New social media platforms have had the benefit of seeing the easy L's that Facebook teed itself up for. For TikTok, its China connection means that there's less room for error when it comes to easily avoidable losses. The team announced some new anti-bullying features aimed at cutting down on toxicity in comment feeds.Dropbox buys DocSend Cloud storage giants are probably in need of a little reinvention, the enterprise software boom of the pandemic has seemed to create mind-blowing amounts of value for every SaaS company except these players. This week, Dropbox made a relatively big bet on document sharing startup DocSend. It's seemingly a pretty natural fit for them, but can they turn in into a bigger opportunity?Epic Games buys photogrammetry studio As graphics cards and consoles have hit new levels of power, games have had to satisfy desired for more details and complexity. It takes a wild amount of time to create 3D assets with that complexity so plenty of game developers have leaned on photogrammetry which turns a series of photos or scans of a real world object or environment into a 3D model. This week, Epic Games bought one of the better known software makers in this space, called Capturing Reality, with the aim of integrating the tech into future versions of their game engine.Twitter Spaces launches publicly next month I've spent some more time with Twitter Spaces this week and am growing convinced that it has a substantial chance to kneecap Clubhouse's growth. Twitter is notoriously slow to roll out products, but it seems they've been hitting the gas on Spaces, announcing this week that it will be available widely by next month.Seth Rogen starts a weed company There's a lot of money in startups, there's really never been a better time to get capital for a project... if you know the right people and have the right kind of expertise.

Raising one’s range and then pricing above it only to see the public markets take the new equity higher is somewhat par for the course when it comes to the most successful recent debuts, to which we can add Coupang."

Updated March 10, 2021 9:31 am ET / Original March 9, 2021 3:04 pm ET Order Reprints Print Article Leon Neal/Getty Images The New York Stock Exchange said late Tuesday that the reference price for Roblox, which is going public tomorrow, is $45 a share. With about 652 million shares outstanding, the reference price indicates that Roblox’s market capitalization could be as much as $29.3 billion. Roblox will trade Wednesday on the NYSE under the symbol RBLX. Existing stockholders have registered about 199 million shares for sale, but 388.2 million shares could potentially be sold. Unlike in a traditional IPO, the company isn’t raising new capital via the offering. Instead, holders will sell stock they already own. The $45 reference price doesn’t mean that is where Roblox shares will begin trading. Rather, it is meant to be a guide that informs the public of recent private trading activity, according to a person familiar with the situation. On Wednesday morning, the NYSE will collect buy and sell orders from broker-dealers. A designated market maker will then determine Roblox’s opening price after consulting with the company’s financial advisors. Direct listings aren’t new but have gained attention of late. Roblox will be the fifth company to go public using this method. Palantir Technologies (ticker: PLTR), Asana (ASAN), Slack Technologies (WORK), and Spotify Technology (SPOT) all used direct listings to make their public equity-market debuts. Companies typically don’t raise capital via direct listings, although in December, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved a rule change proposed by the NYSE that allows a company to do so. Roblox won’t receive any proceeds from shareholders who sell their stock. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Bank of America are advising Roblox on the deal. When Spotify went public on the NYSE in 2018, its reference price was the level of the last private secondary trades. In Slack’s 2019 listing, the reference point was closely informed by the volume-weighted average price of the recent secondary trading activity, but it wasn’t the exact average, the person said. Unlike the price range set by the underwriters of a traditional IPO—usually a reasonable indicator of the offer price—the reference price isn’t particularly useful as a gauge of where a directly listed stock will trade. Both Palantir and Asana went public in September using direct listings. Palantir’s reference price was $7.25, but the stock opened on Sept. 30 at $10, hit a high of $11.42, and closed at $9.50. While Asana’s reference price was $21, it opened at $27, peaked at $29.96, and ended at $28.80. Founded in 2004, Roblox hosts child-friendly games focused on digital characters resembling Lego blocks. An average of 37.1 million people come to Roblox daily to play games. Roblox is not profitable. Losses widened to $253.3 million for 2020, compared with $71 million in 2019. Revenue rose nearly 82%, to $923.9 million. David Baszucki, Roblox’s co-founder, president, and CEO, has 70.1% of the total voting power, the prospectus said.

Thank you This article has been sent to The long-lasting impact of Roblox is rooted in its thousands of creations made by small development studios (and sometimes just one or two people). In its most basic format, Roblox is a free platform that is home to user-created content, all made using its creation tools. Because of its ease of use, more than 50 million monthly players come to Roblox to play, create, and share. The experiences run the gamut, including action adventures, simulations, social hangouts, and even shooters to enjoy. But with so many games to choose from — many of which are admittedly amateur in terms of design and fun — it can be easy to miss some of the best games. Not to worry, as we’ve compiled a list of some of the very best Roblox games, many of which are varied in genre and theme. Keep in mind, there are countless games that are worth your time, but this list will cover some of our favorites. Further reading Hide and Seek Extreme The beauty of Hide and Seek Extreme is that it’s easy to jump in and play. Practically everyone knows how to play Hide and Seek, and the same rules apply here. In it, you play with other people online as part of two groups. Either you’re hiding or you’re seeking. If you’re seeking, it means you’re “It” and are tasked with searching the map for other players. If you’re hiding, you get a few minutes at the beginning of the round to find the best hiding spot you can. It’s a lot of fun, especially if the person who’s It walks right past you as you take cover in your hiding spot. Currently this game has over 1.1 billion visits, making it one of the most popular creations in Roblox. Counter Blox Maybe you need a little bit more action in your games. If so, Counter Blox might be something to try. This Counter Strike-inspired 5v5 competitive shooter sends players battling it out on a variety of maps and game modes. This feels just like Counter Strike, even down to the movement, visuals, and shooting. It’s impressive how close it is to the source material, and it’s constantly updated with new content like maps and gear. This is an example of a game that handles in-game purchases correctly, allowing players to buy cosmetic items that don’t give an unfair advantage. Work at a Pizza Place If you’ve played Roblox, you’ve likely seen or heard of Work at a Pizza Place. It’s a cooking game that effectively throws you into the role of an employee at a pizza restaurant. Your goal is to fulfill customers’ orders correctly, without making any mistakes. As you take orders, you make money, which can be used to expand the shop. Think Overcooked! but with a twist. There are lots of different roles you can take on, from delivery driver to cashier. You must coordinate with your team to feed the hungry people without messing up the order. At over 2.5 billion visits, this is certainly up there in terms of Roblox popularity. Theme Park Tycoon 2 Ever wanted to build your own theme park? If so, you’d probably like Roblox’s Theme Park Tycoon 2. It’s been a while since the last mainline RollerCoaster Tycoon game, but Theme Park Tycoon 2 is a great park sim to fill that void. It features a massive creation suite that allows you to make the wackiest parks and rides. It’s an incredibly elaborate game, giving you the ability to put together massive roller coasters to torture the theme park attendees with. There’s something satisfying and kind of morbid about sending your riders across death-defying loops and heights, but it’s all in good fun, right? Jailbreak What started as a simple idea of “what if we made a game about breaking out of jail?” quickly turned into one of the most robust Roblox offerings. At over 3.8 billion views, Jailbreak is an incredibly popular experience that not only tests your skills as a criminal, but does so in a huge open world. Escaping from jail and avoiding the police isn’t your only goal though. You’ll be tasked with collecting cash throughout the city, leveling up your character, and driving vehicles to meet your goals. With it being one of the most played Roblox games, you’ll find constant content updates and bug fixes to keep players coming back. MeepCity Playing action-packed adventures can get tiresome, which is where relaxing games like MeepCity come into play. It’s described as “a social hangout/role-play game,” wherein you play on large servers with other players. MeepCity shares similarities with Club Penguin and Disney’s Toontown Online, and you can see clear inspirations drawn in its features. In it, you’ll be hanging out with friends virtually, selling flowers, fishing, and collecting furniture for your home much like Nintendo’s own Animal Crossing: New Horizons. If you’re looking for a chill game, this is one to check out. Murder Mystery 2 If you’ve played modern competitive shooters, you’re likely familiar with versions of the Infected game mode. Murder Mystery 2 plays similarly but adds in a bit of sleuthing to make things interesting. You spawn as one of three roles: The sheriff, murderer, or innocents. Depending on your role, your job will change. The murderer must — well — murder, while the innocents are tasked with witnessing the murderer and telling the sheriff so they can apprehend the crime doer. It’s a surprisingly complex multiplayer game, but at 2.8 billion visits, it doesn’t seem to be steering people away with its complexities. RooM Out of all the games on this list, RooM is the creation that looks and plays the most like the game it’s inspired by. In case you couldn’t tell, RooM is a reimagining of the classic DOOM games, and the two look indistinguishable. You’ll do all the things you’d expect, like slaying demons, collecting powerups, and jamming to a kickin’ metal soundtrack. This game faced some copyright issues in the past for obvious reasons, but is currently still available to play on Roblox. Welcome to Bloxburg Welcome to Bloxburg is similar to The Sims in that you simulate a life for yourself, complete with a house and career. The play-to-pay premium game has been around since 2014, but it feels like a full game even though it’s still in beta mode. Before you can launch construction on your house, you need to get funds by doing one of the 12 available jobs. You could be a woodcutter, a cashier, a hairdresser, or something else. After you’re a pro at your job, you’ll get the money you need to build your house, buy cars, and add other extras to improve your game life. The game is very popular and has 2.8 billion visits online, so you know you’ll always be gaming with others. Adopt Me! Nothing goes viral faster than animal content, so it should come as no surprise that Adopt Me! is one of the most viral games on the platform. The game, which has racked up over 8.5 billion visits, is a role-playing game where you adopt and care for animals. And we mean any kind of animal, from puppies to monkeys to unicorns. Caretaking includes interior decorating, house building, and more. Like similar roleplaying games, you are responsible for keeping your pets alive, and you have to feed them, clean them, and play with them like you would a real pet. Unlike with your real pet, though, good care can earn you cash rewards. According to the game’s developers, one of the ultimately goals is to encourage real- life adoptions for animals who need a home. Editors' Recommendations
