  • It is a creator tournament, not a player tournament. You cannot enter, and the prize money goes to the eight competing creators, not to viewers.
What the Creator Showdown Actually Is

Roblox runs a live, in-person tournament series under the name Creator Showdown. Eight creators split into four teams of two, and points stack up round by round as they play a lineup of popular competitive experiences. The last team standing takes the largest share of the pool.

The first one happened on December 4, 2025 in Los Angeles. Roblox called it the first Creator Showdown and put USD 50,000 on the table across five rounds, each round built around a different genre, from arena shooters to obstacle courses and survival games.

The second one landed in Las Vegas on April 24, 2026 with a live audience. Defending champions Caylus and Foltyn returned against six new challengers, and the event ran 1v1, 2v2 and 4v4 events across five rounds.

Sao Paulo is the third annual edition and the first one Roblox has held outside the United States. That is the detail most coverage misses. This is not a rerun of the Vegas format with a new badge on it. It is the first time the series has been run internationally, and the first time the prize is denominated in Brazilian reais.

Sao Paulo Prize Pool, Broken Down

The Brazil payout is in reais, not dollars. Roblox spells out each position in its announcement:
PlacingPrize
First placeR$ 50,000
Second placeR$ 25,000
Third placeR$ 15,000
Fourth placeR$ 10,000
Total paid outR$ 100,000
Every team takes something home. That is a different shape from the USD 50,000 pool of the first two events, where Roblox described the money as a prize pool for the teams to share rather than publishing a per-place breakdown. Do not assume the Brazil numbers convert straight across to the earlier dollar figures. Roblox never published a dollar value for this one.

The Four Teams and the Five Games

Roblox listed all eight competitors and all five games in the announcement. Here is the field as published:
TeamCreators
1Lucas Clash ON and Canal Clash War
2Nayu and iBugou
3Teodoro and Godenot
4NatashaPanda and Vick Barbosa
1. Showdown: Anime FPS Jutsu Shooter. SuperGaming's anime first-person shooter with precision gunplay and jutsu abilities. Teams fight in an esports arena built into the game's Shibuya-inspired hub. The same studio put the Showdown Cup tournament into the game in September 2026 as its first in-game event.
2. Clean Crew. A multiplayer roguelite survival horror where two players clean abandoned apartments while enemies and bosses spawn unexpectedly.
3. FIFA Super Soccer. The official FIFA-partnered soccer experience, with fast-paced play and customization. Roblox calls for advanced dribbling and passing to win rounds here.
4. Beat Battles. A music creation and remix battle. Players build original tracks on a custom piano roll or remix audio loops, and the stage vote decides the round.
5. Killstreak Battle Royale. An arcade battle royale with fluid movement, tactical gunplay and consecutive elimination rewards. Teams parachute in, locate gear and survive a shrinking zone.

How to Watch and What Time It Starts

The English livestream runs at 1 pm PDT on Roblox's official YouTube, Twitch and TikTok channels. The Brazilian Portuguese stream runs at 5 pm BRT on the Roblox BR YouTube and TikTok channels.

Those two times are the same moment, so pick whichever audio track you want and you will see the same bracket.

For English speakers Roblox named two co-hosts: Febatista, a Brazilian YouTube streamer, and WaffleTrades, who covers Roblox events, avatar items and giveaways. The Portuguese stream is co-hosted by LimaMosca, MoonyCaroll and Ana Xisde. LimaMosca has hosted and cast Roblox events across Latin America for several years, MoonyCaroll cast at Gamescom in 2025, and Ana Xisde is described by Roblox as an award-winning professional in the gaming industry.

What Viewers Can Actually Do

The Sao Paulo announcement does not describe any in-experience viewing option. That is a change worth flagging, because the two US events both leaned on The Block, Roblox's immersive event experience. At the Vegas edition, players inside The Block voted on which game the teams played in the wildcard round, unlocked power-ups in the featured games before the show started, and picked up exclusive UGC for trivia answers. The wildcard round moved up to Round 3 in that edition.

Roblox has not said whether Brazil gets a The Block equivalent, so treat any "watch inside Roblox" claim for Sao Paulo as unconfirmed until they publish it.

The interactive layer mattered more than it sounds. At the first Showdown, viewers inside The Block voted Volleyball Legends into the final wildcard round, and Roblox credits that vote with sealing the Red Team's win for Caylus and Foltyn. The audience was not watching the ending get decided. The audience decided it. If Brazil drops that mechanic, the show loses the part viewers had agency in, and you are left with a stream rather than an event.

Viewer rewards followed the same pattern. The December announcement promised exclusive avatar items for the most correct votes inside The Block, and fans could glow in their team's color in dedicated fan zones. Neither is mentioned for Brazil.

Why Roblox Keeps Picking These Games

Look at what the series has used across its three editions and a pattern shows up. December 2025 ran Rivals, Tower of Hell, Blue Lock: Rivals and Ink Game. Vegas ran Rivals again, plus Chained, Racket Rivals and Knockout. Sao Paulo runs Showdown, Clean Crew, FIFA Super Soccer, Beat Battles and Killstreak Battle Royale.

Rivals is the only title to appear in three straight editions, and it won Best Shooter at the 2026 Roblox Innovation Awards on September 12, 2026, with its studio Nosniy Games taking Best Studio the same night. That is the clearest signal of how Roblox weighs competitive credibility against raw player count when it builds a bracket.

The other consistent thread is genre spread. Every edition has covered a shooter, an obstacle or movement challenge, a sports title and something with a social or survival twist. Roblox said as much about the December lineup, describing five rounds that each spotlight a different genre, and the Vegas announcement used the same framing. The Brazil list follows it: a precision shooter, a co-op horror roguelite, a licensed sports game, a music creation battle and a battle royale.

Two of the Sao Paulo games have recent award or tournament pedigree of their own. FIFA Super Soccer won Best Sports Game at the 2026 Innovation Awards, and Showdown's developer SuperGaming ran its own in-game Showdown Cup in September 2026 as the game's first tournament.

How This Compares to the Earlier Events
  1. [b>Prize currency.[/b] December 2025 and April 2026 were USD 50,000 pools. October 2026 is R$ 100,000 across four published placements.
  2. [b>Location.[/b] Los Angeles, then Las Vegas, now Sao Paulo. The first two were in-person US events. Sao Paulo is the first international edition.
  3. Team count. Four teams of two in all three editions. Eight creators each time.
  4. Game count. Five rounds in December, five games in Vegas, five games in Sao Paulo. The series format has stayed stable even as the lineup rotates.
  5. Hosting. Bundun and Mimi "aEvilCat" Wermcrantz hosted in December. Vegas brought back aEvilCat alongside ProjectSupreme and Anthony "RussoPlays" Russo, with Bundun competing instead of co-hosting. Sao Paulo moves hosting to a Brazilian lineup.
