Ownership expands Strategic Properties initiative, adding another cash-generating asset and unique inventory to expand brand partnership revenue
SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Super League, an audience intelligence and media activation company trusted by global brands to reach and engage people who play video games across the digital advertising landscape, today announced it has acquired an ownership interest in My Avatar!, a Top 25 shopping experience on Roblox (source: Rotrends).
The investment advances Super League’s Strategic Properties initiative, expanding its portfolio of equity ownership positions in high-performing Roblox experiences that generate both direct cash flow and differentiated inventory for playable advertising and interactive content programs delivered on behalf of global brand partners.
This move builds on the Company’s recently announced definitive agreement to acquire the Misfits Ads Division from Misfits Gaming Group, with closing subject to stockholder approval, as well as the associated Preferred Commercial Brand Partnership between Super League and Misfits. Together, these initiatives expand Super League’s ability to reach one of the largest, most influential, and under-monetized consumer segments in modern media and culture, positioning the Company to capture a greater share of advertising spend directed toward this audience.
With My Avatar! and Hide or Die! alongside the Misfits portfolio, Super League is assembling a uniquely broad set of opportunities for brands to connect with players through owned inventory, creator-driven experiences, and scalable media solutions, including on Roblox—the world’s largest immersive gaming and creation platform.
Matt Edelman, Chief Executive Officer of Super League, commented:
“Our strength is helping brands engage the most relevant audiences of gamers across the most vibrant gaming and digital media platforms. My Avatar! offers a distinctive player experience that is particularly well-suited for brand integrations. We’re grateful to THINK DIFFERENT for the partnership and excited to continue building our Strategic Properties initiative by backing proven, revenue-generating experiences that expand our inventory and contribute to long-term value creation for shareholders.”
My Avatar! is an avatar shopping and self-expression experience on Roblox, developed and operated by THINK DIFFERENT. The experience centers on browsing and acquiring a dynamic catalog of virtual avatar items, enabling players to express identity and personal style through a highly repeatable engagement loop. The game currently maintains over 800,000 daily active users, reflecting a loyal and consistently engaged player base.
The experience also features an integrated loyalty system, allowing players to earn points on in-game purchases that can be redeemed for rewards, including avatar items added directly to their Roblox inventory. This structure reinforces repeat engagement and creates a strong foundation for branded integrations and virtual goods activations.
THINK DIFFERENT, creator of My Avatar!, commented “My Avatar! is all about self-expression and giving players a space to explore their style and identity. Working with Super League opens up new possibilities to expand the experience in ways that feel natural to our players while introducing brands in a way that adds to, rather than interrupts, the fun.”
Roblox's cultural significance continues to grow. In the 2025 Roblox Replay, as detailed in a December 2025 Roblox investor relations release, Roblox reported that users conduct more than 50 million searches and update their avatars an average of 274 million times per day.
