Roblox 20 “The Hunt”: limited UGC items and Roblox Plus exclusives (September 17–28)

Published:

Roblox marked its 20th anniversary with The Hunt: Roblox 20, a platform-wide event that ran from September 17 to 28, 2026.

What’s new

  • Players moved through 20 years of Roblox history, one quest per year, starting in “Year Zero”; finishing all 20 unlocked “Year Infinity” with 20 more games.
  • Quests awarded UGC items, and limited-release UGC items were available during the event.
  • Roblox Plus subscribers received three exclusive virtual items and keep the Classic app theme, classic avatar background and profile frame after the event.
  • The Classic app theme was free for everyone while the event ran.

What it means for account value

Items that could only be earned during an event are one of the things an appraisal looks at. Roblox did not name the items in its announcement, so this site does not price them until real listings exist.

RDC 2026: Roblox creators earned about $1.7 billion in a year; Roblox Wallet announced

Published:

At its developer conference RDC 2026 (announcement of September 11, 2026), Roblox shared creator-earnings figures and new payout tools.

What’s new

  • Creators have earned over $5 billion since DevEx launched in 2013, and about $1.7 billion in the 12 months to June 30, 2026.
  • Roblox Plus incentives produced over 300 million Robux in creator earnings in their first four months (to August 17, 2026).
  • Roblox Wallet, a payments account run with Airwallex US, will offer daily payouts in real currency — first for eligible U.S. independent creators aged 18+ later in 2026, internationally in 2027.
  • A Roblox Card linked to the Wallet is planned from 2027.

What it means for account value

These changes concern creator payouts, not player accounts: the announcement did not change Robux prices, limited items or trading. Robux balance and limited items remain what our Roblox calculator weighs.

Roblox Fall Games Preview: 10 experiences arriving in September and October

Published:

Roblox published its Fall Games Preview on September 2, 2026, listing ten experiences due in September and October.

What’s new

  • September: Showdown: The Showdown Cup, Monster in the Mansion, GOAT Football League, Nemesis, Fossil Force and Caramel.
  • October: Prime Heroes (early access in September with 6 heroes), Octane, Starforged and Scrapbook Saga.
  • Several titles come from Roblox’s Jumpstart and Incubator creator programmes.
  • Genres range from shooters and racing to survival horror and farming.

What it means for account value

New experiences do not change existing accounts. Roblox account value in our research comes from Robux, limited items and items inside long-running experiences; a new game only matters once its items trade.
