## AI overview

Roblox plans to let developers release games as standalone apps on external platforms such as Steam, the App Store, and Google Play, while initially preserving the Roblox app's revenue-share economics. The company also announced browser-based play, offline modes, new 2D engine capabilities, and expanded access to its Build genAI development tool.

## Source excerpt

Roblox will soon let developers bring games to other platforms, though they'll still 'benefit from the same revenue-share economics' of the Roblox app.
