Kyasia Watson made 2 cents the first time she sold clothes on Roblox, the online metaverse gaming platform — now, that same side hustle earns her over $100,000 a year. Watson, 22, began playing Roblox games in 2011 when she was 8 years old after seeing an ad for it on Google. At its core, Roblox is an app where you can play games designed by other users or create your own games, virtual experiences, avatar clothing and more through Roblox Studio. Unimpressed with the limited clothing catalog offered for Roblox avatars, Watson taught herself how to create digital fashion designs in Photoshop. On Roblox, clothing and accessories can sell for as little as 2 Robux to as much as 2 million.
