In this episode of Brands In Play, Nic Hill and Albane Prioux are joined by Harry Bienenstock, Head of Growth at Voldex, the powerhouse behind some of Roblox’s top games including Driving Empire, NFL Universe, and most recently, Brookhaven, one of the most played games in Roblox history.

We unpack Voldex’s unique strategy of acquiring and scaling games rather than building from scratch, and what it means to operate at the center of user-generated content (UGC), cultural relevance, and brand partnerships. From NASCAR to Lamborghini, from NFL activations to the nuances of performance marketing in gaming, Harry shares a masterclass in how to do brand integration right.

Learn why authenticity isn’t just a buzzword but the backbone of successful in-game activations.

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲:

• Why Voldex acquired Brookhaven (and what comes next)
• How Roblox audiences are aging up — and what brands are still getting wrong
• The secret to integrating brands without player backlash
• Performance marketing metrics in immersive gaming
• What makes a brand actually welcome in a UGC environment
