All players that enter the hub can immediately unlock aReady Player Twoshirt, as well as a book to display. There are further achievements that are available, but take far longer and are much rarer than the shirt and book. For instance, the secondary achievement has only been won by a little over 220,000 players, a .4 percent success rate.
The amount of players entering the hub has been a surprise due to the low number of total players that can be online at the same time. As of right now, up to 50 Roblox players can enter the hub at any given time. An overall visitor log was posted by the book’s official Twitter page yesterday, demonstrating the sheer number of people interested in the happenings inside. However,otherRobloxgames have had even more successthanReady Player Two’s hub.
The hub was opened in conjunction with the novelReady Player Twoby Ernest Cline, the anticipated sequel to the 2011Ready Player One. Since then, the novel has beenadapted into a movie to mixed reactions.Ready Player Tworeturns to the virtual universe Cline created, albeit with more of a mixed reception from fans.
Since being created,Robloxhas been tremendously popularas a sandbox environment where anyone can develop nearly anything, andReady Player Two’s hub is a definite inspiration for that. Players continue to visit the hub in concert with the book to see what all the talk is about, and numbers will continue to grow.
