On April 13, 2021, Hasbro announced its collaboration with Roblox in an official press release. Roblox version of Monopoly board game is already available for pre-order from Hasbro’s online store.

“We are excited to bring the NERF community and the Roblox community together for the first time with an amazing array of explosives,” said Adam Kleinman, vice president of global marketing for NERF, in Hasbros’ official press release. According to Adam Kleinman, the design team did an “exceptional job” and was able to capture the creativity of Roblox developers and innovative Roblox games in the form of a NERF cannon. NERF is an American brand owned by toy manufacturer Hasbro. The NERF blaster is a child-safe, toy-shaped foam weapon.

The online gaming platform Roblox is comparable to a collection of games and is lived by the help and development of Roblox players. The content available on the platform usually comes from the players themselves, and the company only provides the platform and game creation toolkit free for players. However, the games themselves are developed by users. It can then be accessed by the entire community and can be played again alone or with friends.

The NERF Roblox guns are scheduled to hit US shelves this fall. The Roblox version of the Monopoly board game can already be pre-ordered from the Hasbro online store for $ 19.99. Each board game should be equipped with a single code that players can redeem on the Roblox online platform and thus equip their characters with a virtual amplifier, according to the press release.
