Dive changes the game for Roblox developers
For the first time, Roblox game developers can analyse their data with customised cross-platform connections and LiveOps support through the Dive platform. Gaining this kind of deep insight into the metaverse is a unique proposition that Dive is currently the first analytics platform to deliver, proving invaluable for the performance of Roblox games and pioneering for the rest of the analytics market. Having the unique ability to determine data pain points and value will take Roblox games to the next level and with Dive’s custom analytics, innovative game developers can invest in their future.
Data analytics within games provides the backbone of longevity. Data helps to elevate games, keeping them relevant and modern, ensuring the audience is continuously playing and iterating, making micro-changes to refresh and re-engage. This, alongside the innate ability to optimise for seasonal trends and events, is what will now extend Roblox games’ anticipated shelf life. Analysing data points, and reiterating the game based on the results, is crucial to longevity and success, and the demand for customised and deep insight amongst the Roblox developer community is high.
Recent figures show that the Roblox platform now nets over 40 million daily active users, with many playing over two hours a day. With such a high DAU database, it’s imperative that developers can and do optimise their data. For developers, Roblox as a platform opens the doors to an active, unique audience that is hungry for innovation and new methods to engage. This provides the perfect opportunity for highly specific game analytics, more so than ever before. At the heart of this, understanding your player base, retaining and growing your audience and truly setting your game above the rest is down to analysing what you have, and making it better.
For Roblox developers, custom analytics through Dive will provide invaluable insight into their games and help them lead the charge into developing the metaverse. Roblox’s platform offers unrivalled engagement and appetite for innovation, and its mission focuses on supporting players and encouraging them to imagine and create.
Elad Levy, the CEO of Dive says “The demand for data analytics and insight in games is high and even higher within Roblox games. As the metaverse develops, games will live and die based on the depths of their insight and own knowledge of how their players engage. Dive is uniquely positioned to provide specific, custom and tailored insight into games not previously serviced by any form of bespoke analytics. It’s no longer two dimensional – games must look inward in order to serve their players best.”
Dive is a unique analytics platform, combining an expert bespoke data team with a practical hands-on approach, offering limitless tailored and customisation possibilities. Traditional platforms like PC and Mobile are supported, however, Dive also provides support to more innovative platforms like Roblox, Minecraft and NFT games, with the same high level of unique bespoke data analysis and customisation. LiveOps features like segmentation and A/B testing are also available for all platforms that Dive works across, including the Roblox platform. The elite Dive platform, coupled with the expert data teams and custom analytics all combine to support and encourage data-driven games.
Dive, recently integrated with Roblox games, is the first analytics platform in the industry to provide deep metaverse insight, pioneering data analytics for the future. Dive allows developers to focus on what they do best: creating games and furthering their mission to grow and reiterate for success. Dive is available now for use across Roblox and all other innovative platforms.
Stats Perform, the global leader in sports AI, data and technology, has announced an official data partnership with the Northern Super League (NSL). The partnership will allow world-leading Opta data to be collected live from every NSL league game for the next three years.
Beginning this month, the Northern Super League (NSL) establishes a new era in Canadian sport as the country’s first professional domestic women’s soccer league — an ambitious and transformative initiative co-founded by former Canadian international and Olympic medallist Diana Matheson. Its inaugural season kicks off on April 16 and will feature six teams who have assembled multinational player rosters with extensive club and international experience, including 100-cap Canadian internationals Desiree Scott and Quinn.
Once the action begins, detailed data from every on-ball event, including advanced AI-powered Opta Analytics metrics such as Expected Goals (xG) and Expected Assists (xA), will be captured and distributed via feeds and Stats Perform products, including OptaAI Studio. This will enable various broadcasters, publishers and rights holders to generate stories and insights throughout the NSL season and provide them straight to the league’s fans in real time.
As part of the agreement, the NSL’s League Office and every NSL club will also have access to Opta Search, part of OptaAI Studio. This will allow their content creators to leverage all Opta data collected during the NSL season in the creation of data-led stories on the stand-out performers, and will help them generate key talking points for publication on official league and club platforms. Opta Search will also empower the NSL’s media team to create a range of data visualizations, including player shot maps and touch maps, to visually illustrate the impact of different players’ on-field performances.
Christina Litz, NSL President, said: “We are thrilled to have Stats Perform on board as our official data partner. When we talk about detailed performance data in soccer, Opta is the gold standard, so we are delighted to have it powering each of our official digital channels. As the season progresses, we want to put the spotlight on all the on-field heroes who emerge and having access to world-class data will help us tell their stories and inspire a new generation of Canadian soccer fans.”
Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at Stats Perform, said: “Stats Perform has been a huge supporter of expansion leagues around the world, so we are very pleased to be partnering with NSL in the lead-up to their first domestic campaign. Seeing a fully professional women’s soccer league launch in Canada is an incredibly exciting development for the sport in North America and we see considerable potential in working proactively with the League’s Head Office to help the competition grow, using the power of AI and data-led storytelling to build fan communities across the continent.”
