Yes! Creators are now eligible to exchange their tokens for REAL MONEY. In fact, we’ve just cashed out several creators prior to publishing this article. Our creators have had such a tremendous impact on Rec Room that we wanted to enable them to turn their tokens into real money. Now, we’re introducing that system to you here.
2020 Rec Room Wrap Up
Rec Room on Xbox!
We’ve teased it, we’ve talked about it in AMAs…
Today Rec Room is launching on Xbox! Please join us in welcoming a whole new group of players, family, and friends to the Rec Room universe 🌌 We’ve got a few events and surprises that should make the launch even more exciting:
When you invite an Xbox player to try out Rec Room using your Friend Code you’ll both earn a free bottle of bubbly at the end of the event!
We also built an awesome ^WelcomeXbox room where everyone (all platforms) can visit to meet all of the new players and earn a new limited time gift drop - the Space Soldier Helmet! Xbox players can also earn the gift drop by visiting the Rec Center. Be sure to visit the room before December 17th to grab the limited time gift drop!
Bringing Rec Room to Xbox has been a ton of hard work and we couldn’t be prouder of the folks that made this happen. For us, Rec Room has always been about creating a fun and welcoming community for as many people as possible. That means making Rec Room the best place for you and your friends to hang out, regardless of location or device.
Please help us welcome all of the new Xbox players in whatever way best suits your personality. If you’re a quest fanatic, party up with some Xbox players and show them the ropes on your favorite quest. If you’re a paintball fan show them your favorite map. If you’ve got a favorite batch of custom rooms, give them a tour!
If you see players hitting any issues or having questions about Rec Room remember to let them know about our HappyFox support site. From there they can browse the knowledgebase or get in touch with the support team via a new ticket. We also have a very helpful and active player community on our discord for any quick questions.
New players can also find a lot of How To videos on our YouTube Channel or answered questions on our subreddit. You can find links to both of those and all of our other social channels and tutorials here.
And a reminder for all players that your Rec Room account allows you to log into Rec Room across ALL supported devices! Your login works across everything: iPhone, iPad, PS4, PS5, Xbox, Steam, and Oculus. Every time we launch on a new platform we see a big wave of excitement hit the community as more people are able to have their first Rec Room experience. The community has been awesome at welcoming new players in each time this happens and we just want to say a huge thank you to everyone for that in the past and for all of that help going forward. Cheers!

Social Expression on Screen Devices
When we launched Rec Room in 2016, it was a VR-only experience. And one of the coolest things about VR was - and still is - the feeling of social presence that you get. As Rec Room has grown over the years, we’ve welcomed many players on non-VR devices as well - players on consoles, phones, and PCs are playing, creating, and hanging out.
Creator Roadmap
And we’re back! Our second edition of the developer blog gives you a sneak peak at our roadmap for creator-facing features. We have some powerful new tools for creators in the pipeline, and we’re excited to share a little bit of our plan. Creator tools aren’t the only thing we have cooking, it’s just our focus for today. Other plans will have to wait for their own time to shine [|=)]
