Is Roblox in the metaverse?

Roblox is not part of Mark Zuckerberg’s Metaverse, which includes apps and platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. However, it is part of a broader “metaverse” in a generic sense, which refers to a new age of the internet often linked to virtual reality. Roblox was founded on the idea of the “human co-experience: people doing things together in synchronous 3D spaces.” This closely aligns with the original conception of a “metaverse.”
