Roblox says its paid experiences will launch on personal computers later this year, with plans to expand to all other devices in the future.

Roblox will roll out paid videogames on its platform and allow developers to sell physical merchandise through their created games, the company said on Friday.

Roblox players appear unhappy with the platform's decision to sell items for real money instead of Robux, sparking discussions on social media.

A new Roblox initiative will allow some creators to get paid for fan games based on Like a Dragon, Stranger Things, and more popular IPs.

Like YouTube, Roblox started as an online stage for young creators. As the company grows toward 100 million active daily users, contributors are making big money selling games.
