Roblox Corporation has announced a suite of new tools designed to help creators “bring to life compelling content, scale their audience, increase their earning potential, and build successful businesses.”
The company announced the “new innovations” during its 11th annual Roblox Developers Conference (RDC) on September 5, 2025, revealing a number of AI updates that aim to “offer creators artistic freedom, enhanced functionality, and smarter development assistance.”
As part of these AI updates, Roblox Corporation is “advancing generative AI with 4D object creation.”
The company clarifies that, in this case, the fourth wall is interaction, with this new tool allowing for “interaction between objects, environments, and people, providing models with built-in functionality.”
This 4D Objects tool will have a limited release and is coming in Q4 2025.
The company is also building upon the AI-powered real-time text chat translation tool it released in February 2024.
Roblox Corporation plans to roll out real-time voice chat translation next year, which will allow those who speak English, Spanish, French, and German to voice chat, with the AI tool translating their words into the listener’s native language.
In addition, these updates will add text-to-speech and speech-to-text application programming interfaces (APIs) to the platform.
The text-to-speech API is currently in limited release and can convert text to audio from ten preset voices. The speech-to-text API, on the other hand, allows users to trigger actions with verbal commands, which Roblox said “powers a new level of immersion and accessibility.” A limited release of this tool will be rolled out “by the end of the year.”
These new AI capabilities also include assistant improvements. Assistant, which allows Roblox creators to use plain language to code, is “more agentic and context aware,” but it will also become compatible with the model context protocol (MCP) later this month.
“This is significant because in addition to operating as an MCP server, assistant will be able to act as a client and orchestrate work across popular third-party services like Figma and Blockade Labs,” Roblox said.
Alongside these AI-based tools, Roblox Corporation unveiled advancements to performance and fidelity “to expand into new genres and novel types of gameplay,” including avatar improvements, a new server authority mode, and enhanced engine performance.
The company also announced a new short-form video experience, Roblox Moments (beta), that aims to help creators grow and engage their audiences, and an increase to its Developer Exchange Program (DevEx) rate, which will see creators earning 8.5% more when they turn their earned Robux into cash.
According to Roblox Corporation, in the 12 months ending June 30, 2025, Roblox creators earned over $1 billion via DevEx and “are on track to exceed this in 2025.”
“Our goal is for developers to have the opportunity to transform their ideas into growing businesses,” said Nick Tornow, Roblox senior vice president of engineering.
“Time and again, we see that when we give our creators powerful tools and opportunities, they create things that inspire us by pushing the boundaries of creative possibility.
“At Roblox, better tools, including many with AI capabilities, will help creators get from idea to shared reality faster.”
