Netflix just announced Nextworld, a digital theme park powered by Roblox. The latter is one of the most popular games available thanks to its almost infinite creation possibilities. There are a ton of games and experiences created on Roblox by the community. Now, the most popular streaming service in the world joins the party.
Nextworld is currently in early access. It is a Roblox-based world themed around some of Netflix’s most popular content. People will have access to areas, games, and experiences related to their favorite shows.
Nextworld is a Roblox-powered theme park for fans of Netflix shows
As reported by Engadget, Nextworld currently has games and activities based on Stranger Things, One Piece, Cobra Kai, Jurassic World: Chaos Theory and Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon saga. All activities are presented in the form of a theme park to explore. It also seems that there will be many Easter eggs to discover.
The games initially available are of different genres and seem elaborate enough not to get boring quickly. For example, Stranger Things: Escape from Hawkins High is focused on survival with horror overtones. Then, One Piece: East Blue Brawls is a fighting simulator that fans of the live-action adaptation of the popular manga/anime will love.
Each player will have a personal space called Fan Pod, which is customizable. You can obtain collectible items and accessories to personalize Fan Pod as you play, overcoming challenges, finding Easter eggs, etc.
Nextworld will have a social component with events and more
The social factor will also be important, allowing you to interact with other users. This includes watching content on Netflix together through the space called “Streamship.” In fact, the company is preparing “premieres and viewing parties” that will take place at Nextworld through Streamship.
You can access the Netflix and Roblox theme park from any platform where the latter is available. This includes consoles, PCs, and even mobile devices.
