The Roblox Corporation, a pioneer in user-generated content platforms, has announced an exciting update to the UGC Program: the introduction of avatar bodies and standalone heads. This change will allow creators on the platform to design and sell their unique avatar bodies and heads, adding a new dimension to the user experience.

UGC PROGRAM EXPANSION

This expansion to the UGC (User-Generated Content) Program empowers creators to add an extra layer of personalization, extending the range of customization possibilities. In alignment with this update, Roblox has also published a comprehensive set of guidelines to ensure the new content adheres to the platform’s policies.

David Baszucki, CEO of Roblox Corporation, expressed his enthusiasm for this initiative.

“We are excited to give our creators another avenue to showcase their talent and contribute to the rich diversity of our platform. This step not only enables creators to earn more but also makes the Roblox universe more inclusive and creative.”

The guidelines, outlined on the Roblox Developer Forum, include several important points that creators should keep in mind:

1. All avatar bodies and heads should follow the Roblox Community Rules, ensuring content remains safe and inclusive for all users.
