Roblox to Let Creators Ship Games as Standalone Apps Under Roblox Everywhere
Roblox announced Roblox Everywhere at its Developers Conference in the United States on September 11, a plan to let creators distribute their games as standalone apps for mobile, PC, and consoles while still running on Roblox's engine and infrastructure.

Why it matters
Roblox has built its business on keeping players inside its own app, and Roblox Everywhere plus a browser player and offline play in 2027 points to a platform betting that creator games can travel outside it without losing the underlying engine and services.
The company says it will become available in the latter half of 2026.
The distribution plan sits alongside new monetization tools. Roblox says cumulative creator earnings through Developer Exchange, which began in 2013, have passed $5 billion, with about $1.7 billion of that in the most recent 12 months. A Roblox Wallet will let eligible creators receive earnings in real currency and transfer funds to external bank accounts, rolling out in the latter half of 2026 for creators aged 18 and older in the United States, with worldwide expansion planned for 2027. Roblox Card, which links to the wallet for payments, is planned for 2027.
