What it is

RIVALS is a first-person shooter on Roblox where players face off in 1v1 up to 5v5 duels, with the first team to five wins taking the match. Made by Nosniy Games, it has passed 17 billion visits and runs seasonal events and updates.

What they actually see

The screen shows a first-person view with a weapon in hand as players sprint around compact arenas eliminating opponents, who vanish in a puff rather than anything graphic. Between rounds players pick loadouts and show off skins, and challenges are issued by walking up to another player.

  • Competitive
  • Cartoon violence
  • In-game purchases
  • Chat with strangers

Why kids love it

Matches are quick, skill-based and endlessly rematchable, so there is always one more round to prove yourself.

Worth knowing

It is a genuine competitive shooter with voice and text chat and a skin economy, so it fits older kids better than younger ones and can get heated.
