Roblox’s AI assistant gets new agentic tools to plan, build, and test games

Roblox is introducing new agentic features to help developers plan, build, and test games on its platform, the company told TechCrunch exclusively. Roblox is revamping Roblox Assistant, its plain-language AI tool for game development, to help creators throughout the entire development process. The company says that AI tools that take in a prompt and output a solution in one step can often fail to truly capture a creator’s original intent. That’s why it’s introducing an enhanced “Planning Mode” that transforms Assistant into a collaborative partner that can analyze a game’s code and data model, ask clarifying questions, and translate prompts into editable action plans.
