Roblox has announced its second Hunt event, featuring a $1,000,000 grand prize. The Hunt: Mega Edition is set to be the biggest event in Roblox history, offering a variety of rewards and culminating in a grand finale at the game's headquarters, which fans can watch live. However, the catch is that only ten lucky players will get the chance to compete for the million-dollar prize.
The Hunt: Mega Edition builds on the first edition, which ran from March 15 to March 30, 2024. The Hunt: First Edition faced harsh criticism from the community but was generally seen as a successful experiment, with players dedicating thousands of hours to completing its themed tasks. That event only rewarded participants with rare in-game items and cosmetics, not real money. The Mega Edition, however, raises the stakes significantly by offering a million-dollar prize to the competitors.
On February 27, Roblox's Twitter account teased the second edition of The Hunt event with a rather cryptic video. Soon after, the full teaser trailer was released, and the event's immersive hub went live. According to Roblox's official blog, The Hunt: Mega Edition will feature 25 experiences, including Rivals, SpongeBob Tower Defense, Basketball Legends, and IT GIRL—some of the most popular Roblox games of all time. Fans can join the event starting March 13 and will have until March 24 to climb the rankings.
Roblox Prepares to Launch Its Biggest Contest Ever
If all goes as planned, the top ten players of The Hunt: Mega Edition will be invited to Roblox headquarters in San Mateo, California, to compete for the $1,000,000 grand prize. The exact date of the finale has not been disclosed, but it will take place sometime in April. This final showdown will be live-streamed, giving fans a chance to witness the intense competition. It remains unclear whether Roblox will continue hosting similar contests in the future, but if it does, The Hunt could evolve into one of the biggest gaming tournaments in the world.
According to a report by Stock Analysis, Roblox closed 2024 with an impressive $3.60 billion in revenue, cementing its position among the most successful video game companies. With such massive earnings, the $1,000,000 grand prize for The Hunt: Mega Edition amounts to just 0.028% of its annual revenue, making it seem like a small giveback to the community. Regardless, Roblox fans seem to be eager to compete for the prize and are impatiently awaiting the event's immersive hub to start assigning tasks.
