Star Wars and Roblox join forces
To celebrate The Rise of Skywalker, Roblox has plenty of Star Wars content for players to enjoy.
You might not have expected the official Star Wars website to mention Roblox, but that's exactly what's just happened with the reveal of a collaboration between the two brands, seeing Star Wars content come into the sandbox title.
This is starting today and will be there for a limited time, letting players unlock characters and items like BB-8, Kylo Ren's helmet, and Rey's staff, celebrating the impending arrival of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
There's even a Galactic Speedway Creator Challenge, letting you explore a shipyard and assemble scrap parts to build your own racer, challenging your friends online.
You can check out the collaboration in the image below, and this follows on from Fortnite's own collaboration with Star Wars, except this was celebrating Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order rather than the new film.
Are you going to dive into Roblox for this?
