Roblox has been around for a long time now, and the community has just grown stronger over the years. There are numerous Roblox games out there, each offering a unique gameplay experience, and some of them are insanely popular with over 500k players playing the game on a regular basis.

As with many other free-to-play games, Roblox also contains a microtransaction system. The in-game Roblox currency is known as Robux and it can be obtained using real money. Robux can be used for a variety of things, for buying cosmetics, and many other things.

Roblox's microtransaction system has quite a number of flaws, with the inability to refund being a major drawback. In fact, the developers were even facing a legal suit against it. Players who have been playing the game before 2016, might be aware of another currency that existed in the game back then, Tix. If you are wondering what it is, here is all you need to know about it.

What is Tix and why was it removed?

Tix, also known as Tickets was a currency that was present almost since its launch. Tix didn't cost money, and players could earn by it logging in daily, visiting their Place, and a number of other ways. Tix could also be converted into Robux which is something players used to do a lot. Considering that it was just a free way to earn Robux, people started creating alternate accounts to get more Robux, and it almost entirely killed the point of Robux.

In 2016, it was discontinued because the developers thought that it was leading to a lot of confusion in the community.

Is It Coming Back in 2021?

Recently, a number of rumors have surfaced which have been suggesting that Tix is probably making its way back into the game. A Roblox Twitter account, Roblox Predictions V2, has stated that Roblox will try to bring back a feature that was removed from the game. This has led many players to believe that Tix might be coming back to the game.

However, it is quite less likely that Tix will be coming back. The same Twitter account has stated earlier that Roblox might try to implement another non-premium currency but it will have more restrictions than Tix.

Considering that Tix was exploited so badly back in 2016, things could go even worse in 2021 with the exposure the game has right now. The implementation of Tix could hurt Roblox Corps. revenue significantly, so the probability of that happening is very less.
