$2,300 to $18,000
Platform average: about $9,000 a month ($9.01 per average player). A rough guide, not a quote.
How we work it out
Roblox's Q2 2026 results say it paid developers $363 million through DevEx while players spent 29 billion hours on the platform. That is about $0.0125 an hour. One player online for a whole month is 720 hours, so the platform average is about $9.01 per average player per month. We multiply that by your average players, then show 0.25x to 2x of it, because games differ widely.

Questions
How much does a Roblox game make with 1,000 players?
With 1,000 players online on average, a game earning at the platform average makes about $9,000 a month. A rough range is $2,300 to $18,000. Which end you land on depends on how much your game gives players to buy.
Where do these numbers come from?
Roblox's Q2 2026 results: $363 million paid to developers through DevEx over 29 billion hours played. That is about $0.0125 for each hour a player spends on Roblox, or about $9.01 per month for each player who is online around the clock on average. The range runs from 0.25x to 2x that figure.
Is this what my game will earn?
No. It is a platform average turned into a range. Roblox earnings are very uneven: Roblox said at its 2026 developer conference that the median creator who cashed out earned about $1,500 in a year, while the top 10 averaged tens of millions. Treat the range as a sanity check, not a forecast.
Is this before or after Roblox's cut?
After. The figure comes from what Roblox paid developers, so Roblox's 30% cut is already out. The result is already in US dollars, so there is nothing more to convert.
Does it count players or visits?
Average players online at the same moment, not total visits and not the daily peak. A game with a 5,000 peak that sits at 2,000 most of the day should use 2,000.
Why use cash-outs and not total sales?
Roblox only publishes what it paid out through DevEx. Some earnings sit uncashed, so real earnings can be higher than this method shows.
