(Reuters) -Roblox beat quarterly bookings estimates as in-game spending jumped and summer break drove more users to its online gaming platform for titles including "Adopt Me!" and "Murder Mystery 2", sending its shares over 17% higher on Wednesday.
The results are the latest sign that spending was holding up well on videogames in an uncertain economy, after Electronic Arts raised its annual forecast last week.
