BLINKs, it looks like BLACKPINK has another treat for you! Following their trending collaboration with Starbucks, the K-Pop girl group has now joined hands with online game Roblox to launch “BLACKPINK The Palace” on Aug. 25.
The new game allows fans to host parties, decorate rooms, and interact with fellow BLINKs. Players will also have their own Hammerbong lightsticks, which they can upgrade by hitting crystals spread around caverns in the palace.
If you’re lucky enough, you can also get a chance to take some snaps and interact with the girls' avatars! You can also visit various themed rooms in the game, inspired by BLACKPINK’s songs and music videos.

That’s not all, because you can also channel your inner K-Pop idol by purchasing BLACKPINK’s signature outfits and emotes and putting them on your avatars!
“BLACKPINK The Palace” is developed by Karta, the company behind “Twice Square,” the immersive experience made for fans of popular South Korean girl group Twice.
"We look forward to welcoming fans from all over the world to a beautiful virtual palace where they can party, connect, and experience everything BLACKPINK beyond the constraints of time and space," said Hyo-jung Lee, head of IPX Division at YG PLUS, in a press statement.
More updates and information on the immersive experience will be rolled out soon. Check them out here.
