Synopsis
A ROBLOXxian named Jake (Chris Pratt) is a citizen who has no friends and always been alone. Until one day when 1x1x1x1 (Jack Black) starts attacking Planet Builder, Jake teams up with ROBLOXians Melvin (Chris Evans), Jesse (Jessica Chastain), Omar (Seth Rogen), Chad (Bryce Johnson), Sean (Bill Hader), Laith (Ben Schwartz), and Donny (Steve Carell) (who later betrayed the gang) must go on top of their universe to find Builderman (Will Arnett) to help and save Planet Builder from 1x1x1x1 from trying to destroy the planet.

Plot
Planet Builder is a peaceful planet full of ROBLOXians (citizens that live in Planet Builder). ROBLOXians love making and playing games across different realms. Builderman (Will Arnett), ROBLOX (Jason Sudeikis), and 1x1x1x1 (Jack Black) were the gods of the ROBLOX Universe and they always made sure that the universe is doing fine. However, 1x1x1x1 became jealous because Builderman and ROBLOX were focusing more on blocks than metal. As a result, 1x1x1x1 killed ROBLOX, causing Builderman to kick him out of Planet Builder. Many years later, a 15-year-old ROBLOXian named Jake (Chris Pratt), was always alone, and didn't have any friend. Jake wished that people would just respect him one day. There was also another planet called Planet Hacker, which was home to all of the hackers in the ROBLOX Universe. 1x1x1x1 was the leader and god of that planet, and he plans to release all hackers and villains to attack Planet Builder one day. Jake then figures out and then he tells every ROBLOXian in Planet Builder, but nobody trusts him. But when Melvin (Chris Evans), Jesse (Jessica Chastain), Omar (Seth Rogen), Chad (Bryce Johnson), and Donny (Steve Carell) hear him, they came up to him and started trusting him.

They knew it wouldn't be easy, so they went across the ROBLOX Universe to find Builderman to learn more about hackers and 1x1x1x1. He then agreed to help them take the villains out and take out 1x1x1x1 from trying to destroy the planet. Then 1x1x1x1 is seen again flying, and then tries to take the others, but instead he took Donny. So then, they jumped into one of Builderman's portals to find Donny, they went to Ultimate Driving, Jailbreak, etc. Then, when they get back to a portal, they accidently get send to 1x1x1x1's liar in Planet Hacker. 1x1x1x1 then traps the gang, and Donny is seen again doing a evil grin at Jake and the gang, telling them that he will betray them. 1x1x1x1 also wants to mind control Jake and the gang. When 1x1x1x1 mind controls someone, their accounts (soul) get taken and their outfit transfers into a energy that 1x1x1x1 needs and in return, the energy his body doesn't needs comes back but it comes back as a Noob outfit (despite that he has a lot of minions). Jake and the gang then try to escape the cage, but then Donny appears and captures Chad, Laith, and Omar. While Jake and the others who are still remaining escaped and traveled back to ROBLOXIA.

1x1x1x1 and Donny are then seen again with a giant robot that is made for destruction. The attack starts start in Planet Builder when the robot starts destroying buildings, then many Noobs back up for them. Sean then brings Chad, Laith, Omar, and Daniel back to normal. But after they defeat the some of the Noobs and Donny, 1x1x1x1 comes to fight them. So they work together. But then after 1x1x1x1 got defeated, a massive earthquake occurred and then 1x1x1x1 got turned to "Powerful Mode" which is used when he gets 1,000,000 energy. Then, Jake and his friends start shooting him with guns, making 1x1x1x1 lose health. But then, he gets more powerful while at low health, so then, he shoots a massive fire ball at Jake and his friends, but then Builderman shot it back to 1x1x1x1, then 1x1x1x1 gets defeated. Then the giant robot explodes.

After 1x1x1x1 and Donny get defeated, all the people that were mind controlled came back to normal, then Builderman can be seen trying to ban 1x1x1x1 and Donny but he didn't have enough power and started to die. Then all of the sudden, Shedletsky (Kevin Hart) appeared and then helped Builderman ban 1x1x1x1 and Donny. He also notices that Builderman was dead, so then he took his account (soul) and put it in a empty player's outfit and Builderman was back but in a different name. He was now called David and he was still a god of the ROBLOX Universe. Now 1x1x1x1 and Donny are now banned for good. Jake now has made friends with the people who helped him (expect Donny), he then became a legendary adventurer and a hero of the entire Roblox Multiverse.

Secret Scene
A secret scene then plays after the first scene of the closing credits. It first starts with 1x1x1x1 and Donny in "Ban Prison" (a prison where all the people get banned whenever its from one day to termination), then the prisoners noticed that 1x1x1x1 and Donny was here, they then knew about the battle their were doing before they got banned, then all the prisoners started to get closer, and were blocking 1x1x1x1 and Donny's way in a circle, they wanted to attack 1x1x1x1 and Donny due to their plan for the battle they were doing, then a prisoner crashed a wall hard, making 1x1x1x1 and Donny being lost in space and then they start to run out of air, then they start to become frozen, then they started to float away from the universe, and they were never seen again.

Development
In late November 2020, ROBLOX sent a twitter message just a image with no text with it, people were confused what it was, but then YouTubers decided to make a video on it. The image was mostly black, but there was a player dressed up as a noob in the image. People wanted to see it more, so they brighten it up, and it showed 2 movie cameras and a noob but with a scared face. The bottom of the image then said "We're Powering Imagination to Theaters now!". After people saw this investigation, the whole ROBLOX community started to freak out, and were excited for it.

2 weeks after that, ROBLOX then made a blog post saying that their making a movie, they only said that to people who don't know what's going on. Then they said that they will team up with DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures, to make the film. They also said that they plan for the release date to be around Winter 2019, but then it got delayed due to Frozen 2 being in its release date, so they decided to make it around Summer 2024 which is the current release date for the film. On February 24, 2021, it was announced that Shovelware Animation joined to produce the film and other films in the franchise.

Writing
Writing on the film began on Early May 2021. However, the script is still in-progress. It has also been announced that it will be written by Robert Smigel.

Filming
The Avatars of roblox become Avatar Rthro but they don't have faces like in the video games, they have eyes like the characters of Sherk, How to train a dragon, Trolls, Baby Boss etc... Avatars that have bodies Noob there have a big belly and a small leg like pixies. And Jake's parents are the avatars of Roblox on Xbox Claire Jake's mom, and Casey Jake's father, that obviously makes a reference.

Animation
The film will be recorded at DreamWorks Studios at Glendale, CA for the US and Internationally. It will be using 3D animation and CGI animation on actual ROBLOX Characters. They will also use the same engine ROBLOX uses for the ROBLOX characters.

They helped with the CEO of Roblox then it's been 3 years since they did it but because of the Covid-19 they couldn't work so quickly during the summer of 2020 they then didn't help VideoColor to make a very good animation
