This is a new, innovative way for me to express my love for music, fashion and the boundless creativity that comes from both,” said John. The British singer entered into a partnership with the Roblox playground back in November 2022. As part of the collaboration, Elton John's themed virtual world appeared on the site, as well as the exclusive film “Beyond the Yellow Brick Road”. Roblox players could receive exclusive in-game items such as British Composer glasses, avatar packs, costumes and more during the event.. The singer claims that the choice fell on Roblox due to the fact that there are “no restrictions” on the site.. According to the singer, the virtual world allows digital creators to be completely themselves. “You can be as flashy or down to earth as you want. It's very similar to how I chose to live my life and express myself on stage and through my music,” he said. However, the financial details of Elton John's partnership with Roblox have not been disclosed.. Meanwhile, things at the playground itself leave much to be desired.
