🎮 The gaming industry is once again in the spotlight, and this time the main star is Roblox (RBLX). August, typically considered a “quiet” month for entertainment, turned into an explosion of activity for the company: the number of players tripled year-over-year. New platform hits like Grow a Garden, Steal a Brainrot, and 99 Nights in the Forest are driving this surge.
The market reacted instantly: Roblox shares closed at $132.96, even above the $130 target set by most analysts. While this could point to overheated valuations, investor interest shows no signs of fading. On the contrary, both players and shareholders see Roblox as a source of fresh opportunities.
In 2025, Roblox stock has already gained 107%, with market capitalization surpassing $80 billion. A year ago, the company reported a $31 million loss, but now it shows positive EBITDA — a far more important signal to the market than flashy press releases.
A key milestone was the July launch of a new licensing platform designed to connect content creators with intellectual property owners. Netflix and Lionsgate were among the first partners, signaling Roblox’s transformation from a simple gaming hub into a full-fledged entertainment ecosystem.
Meanwhile, the company’s stock remains at the center of debate. Some expect a correction, while others anticipate new highs if user growth continues and the licensing strategy delivers results.
The sector’s second big player is Electronic Arts (EA). On October 10, Battlefield 6 will launch, already generating strong buzz.
Madden NFL 26, released in August, is also performing well. Unlike Roblox’s explosive rally, EA’s shares remain relatively stable — but successful fall releases could shift the picture quickly.
⚡ Overall, we are looking at two different scenarios. Roblox impresses with record-breaking momentum and high-profile partnerships, but its shares may be too “expensive” for a new buyer right now. Electronic Arts, on the other hand, offers a story with a delayed effect, where the decisive factor will be the success of this fall’s releases.
