DJs throwing virtual concerts is nothing new, but have you ever explored a whole virtual world dedicated to a Grammy-nominated artist?
The EDM super-trio Swedish House Mafia is about to launch itself into the wild frontier of the metaverse with an interactive, multi-layered, playable and explorable Roblox region. It’s called DJs World: Swedish House Mafia, and a virtual concert is just the tip of the iceberg.

Designed in partnership with Play Pal Studios, DJs World: Swedish House Mafia launches Friday, Dec. 1, at 6 p.m. ET, and invites fans and Roblox players around the world to enjoy 3D games based around the band’s music, collectible digital fashion items, an in-world scavenger hunt, photo opportunities, and of course, a huge virtual performance of the chart-topping trio’s biggest hits.
In an attempt to make something a bit more exciting than the usual virtual performance, DJs World: Swedish House Mafia centers mainly around the interactive games that take inspiration from SHM hits “One,” “Ray of Solar,” “Heaven Takes You Home,” “Moth To A Flame” featuring The Weeknd and more.
A trailer for the explorable space shows a variety of environments, from lit-up nightclub dance floors to vibrant fantasy scapes. We can’t say exactly how the songs will be transformed into playable games, but the trailer does showcase a Roblox avatar shooting a giant gun and riding a giant moth, among other exciting moments.
Fans can now access the DJs World: Swedish House Mafia waiting room, where they can get even more previews of the gameplay to come, as well as catch a sneak peek of the collectible digital merch that will only be available during the game’s first 72 hours online.
