Millions of Gen Alpha and Gen Z players log into Roblox daily and Differin kicked off 2025 with the Level Up Lobby, effectively introducing itself as the first acne-care brand to establish a presence on the wildly popular metaverse platform.
The Level Up Lobby is an interactive space where players benefit from acne care mini-games that are educational, entertaining, and rewarding. In Foam Blaster, players clean faces with Differin’s 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Maximum Strength Foaming Cleanser. In Power Patch Splatter, players thwart pimples by launching Power Patches. And in Zit Zapper, players tap into the power of the 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Spot Treatment Zapper.
After completing the mini-games, players' avatars are lit up by a sparkling aura representing the glow and confidence boost the right acne care products provide.
