Popular game platform Roblox was previously blocked from launching on PlayStation consoles due to certain concerns.
It has been revealed that Roblox reportedly got blocked from getting released on PlayStation consoles because of certain concerns. It was concerned that the game’s popularity among the children will cause problems for PlayStation in the future.
This new piece of information comes from the 2022 document uncovered as part of the FTC vs Microsoft trial via Axios. PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan was discussing Roblox’s absence from the consoles. He has also admitted that the stance of the company from the game has now shifted.
“Historically, because of the large number of children that play on the PlayStation, we have been very careful with regards to opening them up to anything that could potentially exploit them,” Ryan said.
“Over the last couple of years, however, we have reviewed those policies and relaxed a little on this,” he continued. “We have been conservative for too long, and now we are currently engaging with people at Roblox. We hope that the situation will change.”
Roblox is currently available on PC, Xbox consoles, and mobile devices.
