[Update: Aug. 30] Roblox app & website down or not working? You're not alone

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on June 4, 2021) follows:

Roblox is an online gaming platform as well as a game creation space developed by Roblox Corporation. It gives players the liberty to program their own games and play games created by other users.

The platform is complex and therefore, has had a terrible reputation when it comes to its operations. The Roblox app and website go down and stops working quite often.

There appears to be a similar outage as we speak where users are getting a hard time accessing the application.

And in case you’re trying to get your head around why the Roblox app and website aren’t working for you, find solace in the fact that you aren’t the only one facing issues lately.

A quick look at the micro-blogging site Twitter conveys there are many others affected by the same issue.

As per reports, while some say the service isn’t working or broken for them, others aren’t getting the icons, images, and thumbnails loaded.

For a quick glance, here’s how some of the complainants word the problem:

#robloxdown Is it just me or things on the site (images, clothing) aren’t loading

Down detector – a popular service that gives information about live outages – also conveys that Roblox is indeed going through a glitch and the sharp spike can be seen in the image below:

Any official word on the matter? Negative, as yet. We’re yet to locate a word from the official service channels or their social media handles.

In fact, the official status says it is still operational. This means that the company is yet to notice the reports.

Rest assured, we’re keeping tabs on all related developments, and will update this page with relevant info as and when we come across any.

So, in case you’re encountering the problem discussed here, stay hooked for updates.

Many users have taken to platforms such as Twitter to report that they aren’t able to play the game on multiple platforms.

Roblox has also confirmed that there’s “degraded performance” issues affecting all platforms on its official status page.

Roblox is down and not working according to a flood of reports on various social platforms such as Twitter and Reddit.

The official status page also indicates that the service is facing some disruption and the team is working on a fix. The current status indicates that it’s only a partial disruption.

New reports now indicate that Roblox is once again facing an outage. This, as reported by a flurry of new reports on social media. Similarly, Downdetector is reporting a massive spike in number of new reports.
