Roblox VP Jon Vlassopulos added: “We’re thrilled to host Royal Blood as we celebrate the talent of our creators with the greater Roblox community in this immersive, out-of-this-world Metaverse experience.”
Royal Blood’s third album, Typhoons, is due April 30 via Warner. Royal Blood’s first two albums, Royal Blood (2014) and How Did We Get So Dark (2017), both reached No. 1 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart. Both also cracked the top 30 on the Billboard 200.
The duo consists of Mike Kerr, 30 (vocals, bass) and Ben Thatcher, 33 (drums). Their eponymous debut album was nominated for the 2014 Mercury Prize. Royal Blood won as best British group at the 2015 Brit Awards, beating One Direction, Coldplay, alt-J and Clean Bandit. They were nominated again in that category in 2018 but lost to Gorillaz.
