Roblox Is Reducing Premium Benefits

Roblox is removing important benefits for Premium subscribers, making the subscription less attractive than before. As of June 20, discounts on items in the catalog and the exclusivity of certain items for Premium players will be eliminated. This change raises questions about the value of the subscription, especially for those who use it primarily to obtain these benefits.

What's Changing?

• Removal of DiscountsPreviously, Premium subscribers had access to discounts on specific items in the catalog. For example, an item that cost 150 Robux could be purchased for 75 Robux if the player had Premium. With the new update, these discounts will be removed, and all items will have the same price for all players.

• End of Premium Exclusive ItemsIn addition to the discounts, Roblox is also removing the exclusivity of certain items in the catalog that were only available to Premium subscribers. These items will now be available to all players, or will be completely removed from the catalog.

History of Premium at Roblox

Premium wasn't always what it is today. Formerly known as Builders Club (BC), Turbo Builders Club (TBC) and Outrageous Builders Club (OBC), Premium offered a number of advantages, including exclusive hats and other cosmetic items that were granted depending on the player's subscription level. Over time, these benefits were reduced or removed, and many of the exclusive items became available to all players, or were transformed into limited items.

Is it still worth subscribing to Premium?

Given the cut in benefits, many players may wonder whether it still makes sense to continue with the Premium subscription. The main reasons for remaining a subscriber are:

1. Creating CGU Items Creators who sell personalized items in the Roblox catalog still need Premium to put their products on sale.
2. TradingPlayers involved in trading valuable items can continue to benefit from the Premium subscription.
3. Robux MonthlyPremium also offers a monthly amount of Robux, which can be useful for players who make regular purchases on the platform.

However, with the removal of discounts and exclusive items, players should evaluate whether these remaining benefits still justify the cost of the subscription. If not, Premium may no longer be a necessity, unless Roblox introduces new benefits or adjusts the current ones to make them more attractive.

What's Next?

With the end of the aforementioned benefits, it is speculated that Roblox may remove or change other aspects of the Premium subscription. Players who rely on Premium to carry out trades or create and sell UGC items should be wary of future changes. In addition, if Roblox decides to remove the need for Premium for these activities, it could result in a significant drop in the number of subscribers.

In addition to these changes, Roblox has also undergone several updates, including modifying the site's interface and fixing bugs that were affecting the players' experience. These changes aim to improve the platform's usability, but also bring uncertainty about the future of certain features.

Final considerations

Roblox is clearly in the process of reviewing and updating its policies and functionalities, which includes reducing the benefits offered by Premium. If you're a Premium subscriber, it's important to consider what these changes mean for you and whether the subscription is still worthwhile. If not, it may be time to reconsider the subscription and look for alternatives within the platform.

However, it's worth keeping an eye on future updates, as Roblox may introduce new benefits that make the Premium subscription attractive again for its players. Until then, it's essential to stay informed about the changes and assess how they impact your experience on the platform.

If you're not already a Premium subscriber, now might be a good time to reconsider subscribing, as the current range of benefits is limited and may not justify the investment.
