Until now, one thing common in online games was missing from Roblox: voice chat. Players communicated with each other entirely through text messages, or using pre-set actions and sound bites.

Roblox will translate messages and chat conversations between users in real-time.

The AI system has detected and reported 1,200 cases to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children this year.

Roblox is breaking language barriers today as it launches AI-powered real-time chat translation in 16 languages.
