Roblox's daily users continue to drop as age-checks slow growth

"Roblox's daily active users continued to slip last quarter due in part to its rollout of age checks on its platform, currently at 132 million globally."

"The rollout of age-check features slowed new user acquisition, with 51 percent of global daily active users having gotten their age checked."

"Roblox's revenue still grew to $1.4 billion, despite the drop in daily active users, indicating a strong financial performance amid challenges."

"The company will implement additional improvements designed to facilitate age-appropriate access to content and product features over the next few quarters."

Roblox's daily active users fell to 132 million, down from 144 million, influenced by age checks and a ban in Russia. Revenue increased to $1.4 billion. The rollout of age-check features slowed new user acquisition, with 51% of global users age-checked. In the US, 65% of users have completed age checks. Roblox is expanding age restrictions on game access and plans to enhance age-appropriate content. The company anticipates lower growth expectations for 2026 due to its safety initiatives and is increasing the Developer Exchange rate for users over 18.
