Blackpink is what video chat sex calledcoming to Roblox in style. Starting Aug. 25, the multi-national K-pop girl group will have their own Roblox experience, "Blackpink the Palace," which will be updated with new content year-round.
Players will have the chance to explore a grand pastel palace home to interactive scenes from Blackpink's iconic music videos. The "DDU-DU DDU-DU" room, for example, holds Jennie's giant chess board and black tank and Lisa's bank vault.
Below the palace are caverns where players can mine in-game currency from sparkling crystals. Their hammer? A replica of Blackpink's light stick. The more crystals players smash, the more currency they gain to decorate and host Blackpink-themed parties for their friends (think pink and black balloons, chairs, tables, and more).
