The map creation tool is the “Roblox Studio”, which the user can use in its browser version on the game’s website or download to use on the PC. Roblox Studio is a very powerful and intuitive software with the ability to generate large 3D terrains with one click and easily handle objects on the playing field. This example creates a base map for Roblox, but players can dig deeper into the tool and create even more elaborate and personalized experiences. How to create a map in Roblox Step 1.
