Aquaman: Home is Calling will put players in the Roblox role of Aquaman, and using his superpowers of strength, swimming ability and control over sea life set out to find the Lost Trident of Atlan and reclaim the Atlantean throne from his half brother, King Orm. Should Aquaman fail then a terrible war will devastate both the surface world and the oceans.
Players will progress through three areas of Atlantis, completing missions and earning new customisations, however, the combined effort of the whole Roblox community will be required to unlock certain chambers, complete trials and earn exclusive digital rewards.
“The Roblox platform lets players enjoy deeply immersive experiences with their friends,” said Craig Donato, Chief Business Officer at Roblox. “We’re excited to work with Warner Bros. Pictures again to spark the imagination of millions of players as they collaboratively explore this new underwater world on the Roblox platform ahead of the movie’s release this December.”
“We are always looking for new and innovative ways to engage and delight moviegoers,” said Andrew Hotz, Executive Vice President of Worldwide Digital Marketing, Warner Bros. Pictures. “Following the success we had working with Roblox this year to immerse their users in the ‘80s nostalgia of the Oasis in Ready Player One and a mysterious and haunting 1920s Paris in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, we couldn’t be more thrilled for audiences and Roblox players to experience the epic world of Atlantis in Aquaman.”
