Roblox has announced the hiring of two new top executives, Rick Silvestrini and Andrew Chmyz, to the positions of chief marketing officer and chief financial officer respectively. The two sat down for an interview with Games Industry to discuss their plans for the future of Roblox, including increasing staff count by over 30%.

You can follow the link below for the full interview, but for now here is a small comment by Silvestrini about Roblox’s competition.

We are part of a media revolution as entertainment becomes more participatory and is driven by individual creativity. So I like to think of competition as any passive entertainment form that doesn’t encourage to kids to explore, to create, and to connect.
