The Hunt Awaits

The Hunt: First Edition (commonly called The Hunt) was an official event which involved 100 partnered experiences. It took place from 10am PT on March 15, 2024 to 12pm PT on March 30, 2024.

The event's focus was known as The Infinite Vault. The Infinite Vault served as a hub for the event, with 100 different portals sending players to different games. In every game, players would be required to complete tasks, which would give players a badge for completing the task. After earning enough badges to reach a certain milestone, participants could redeem various accesories at the event's hub. Some of these items include The Vault Holo Compass, the Staff of the Vault Explorer, the Vault Explorer's Wings, the Vault Explorer's Cowl, the Vault Explorer's Crown, and The Infinite Egg. There are even more unlockable items in this event, however not all of them require badges.

Prior to the event's release, Roblox released the Korblox Deathwalker bundle onto the Marketplace for 29,000 Robux as a teaser for the event. Shortly after, the Roblox account on X (formerly Twitter) would release teasers for the event's release date, the event's inclusion of developer-made experiences, and the event's prizes.

History

The first ever teaser for The Hunt.

On February 29, the Roblox X (formerly Twitter) account posted a vague picture, with the caption "From the icy depths, his march begins. Tomorrow." One day later, another tweet was posted, announcing a new bundle called the Korblox Deathwalker. It was followed with another caption stating "Hunting for other news? Follow along... more to come soon." 3 days later, the first official teaser for The Hunt was announced, showing the official release date, alongside the experience portal. On March 6, a video was released of the experience portals in a circle, People in the community thought it was an egg.

As The Hunt

On the same day, Roblox releases another video, which included the event's name "The Hunt: First Edition". March 11 would lead to the announcement of 3 experiences as part of The Hunt. These include Sonic Speed Simulator, Royale High, and World // Zero. The Sonic Speed Simulator tweet confirmed there were "Tons of experiences, a ridiculous stockpile of items". The next day announced that the Korblox Deathwalker can be used in the event. On March 13, they released the event page for it with a countdown. A day later, they opened up the lobby with just a countdown, and RB Battles as part of the hunt. They also updated the site with a FAQ on the bottom. It confirmed a snippet of the lobby, the items tab, and a limited item exclusive to Roblox cards bought in Walmart. For 24 hours before the event's release, the ability to run both User and Immersive Advertisements was temporarily disabled, as they were being used to advertise the event. On 1:00 pm EST, The Hunt was officially released to the platform.

On March 20, the account posted a video, with a date, stating it will release on March 22. The hub was also updated, showing a hexagonal shape with a timer on top. March 22 would announce that a spaceship has landed with a reward, containing The Infinite Egg. The egg originally required all 100 badges, but this was quickly changed to 95 following feedback from the community.

On March 30 12pm PT, The Hunt officially ended, with the website for it now displaying the message "The Hunt has ended. But the adventure continues…" The description for the hub was also updated, stating that to "Be on the lookout for more adventures to come."

Roblox also liked a number of posts on X from March 11 - 15 (before release) of developers announcing their participation of The Hunt. The following include: Pet Simulator 99, SCP: Roleplay, Tsunami Game, Driving Empire, PLS DONATE, Toilet Tower Defense, Mega Hide and Seek, Greenville, Pull a Sword, Livetopia, and Tower Defense Simulator.

Hub

The event's hub, named 'The Hunt: First Edition' after the event itself, was an important part of the event. It allows participants to see how many badges they've collected and the time it took them since the event's launch to get their current badge count. It also allows them to claim rewards for those badges, and get quick access to the 100 participating experiences. Each day, a different limited-time item was displayed on the right side of the screen, which costs Robux. The hub was opened to the public less than 24 hours before the event released.

Participating experiences

One of the badges from a game encountered an issue while attempting to obtain it. As a result, the badge was automatically awarded to all players.

There are 100 experiences with a badge that contributes progress to the event, with 69 experiences rated as All Ages, 27 experiences as Ages 9+, and 4 experiences as Ages 13+. Some experiences also gave out free UGC items for completing optional challenges. Despite some experiences deciding to add Egg hunt-like elements, The Hunt itself is not an Egg Hunt.

Roblox automatically gave all players the badge for The Strongest Battlegrounds due to technical issues.

There were a few experiences that were planned to be part of the hunt, but were left out.

• asimo3089 was approached to have Jailbreak to partake in The Hunt, but he declined the offer due to him being on a holiday.
• Barbie Dreamhouse Tycoon, Easy Obby, and Murder Mystery 2 were shown in the trailer, but didn't appear to be in the event once it launched. The reason why is currently unknown.
