==Forced arbitration==

Roblox's Terms of Use states that the only way to opt out of forced arbitration is to send written notice to Roblox with 30 days of signing up for the first time. Future changes to their Arbitration Agreement may only be opted out if an additional written opt-out notice is sent within 30 days after Roblox provides notice of such changes. The written notice must be sent by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (or international equivalent), as stated in section 13.b.ix of their Terms of Use.<ref>{{Cite web |date=30 Apr 2026 |title=Roblox Terms of Use |url=https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004647846-Roblox-Terms-of-Use |url-status=live |access-date=14 May 2026 |website=Roblox}}</ref>

Roblox is reassuring their playerbase that the groups do not use the proper channels that Roblox provides to report potential criminals.

=== Unrated Game Delisting ===

On August 25th, 2025, Matt Kaufman (Roblox's Chief Safety Officer) posted an announcement that unrated games would become unplayable on September 30th, 2025, if they did not fill out a Maturity & Compliance questionnaire.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kaufman |first=Matthew |date=2026-08-25 |title=Important Updates: Unrated Experiences and Changes to Experience Pages - Updates / Announcements - Developer Forum {{!}} Roblox |url=https://devforum.roblox.com/t/age-requirements-for-team-create-in-studio/4539725/202 |url-status=live}}</ref> On August 27th, 2025, Matt Kaufman posted that inactive games would get rated by Roblox if they reached 1,000 lifetime visits.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Kaufman |first=Matthew |date=2026-08-27 |title=Important Updates: Unrated Experiences and Changes to Experience Pages - Updates / Announcements - Developer Forum {{!}} Roblox |url=https://devforum.roblox.com/t/important-updates-unrated-experiences-and-changes-to-experience-pages/3899317/253 |url-status=live}}</ref> This did not impact active games or games with less than 1,000 lifetime visits, leading to games becoming unlisted. Refunds were not given for games that can no longer be accessed.

==== Uncopylocked Game Hiding ====

In late 2025, uncopylocked games that were private became inaccessible with 404 error pages. These files were able to be downloaded locally and opened in Roblox Studio. Since these games were private, they were otherwise unplayable. No staff response was ever given.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-12-27 |title=Uncopylocked games should not show the 404 error - Feature Requests / Website Features - Developer Forum {{!}} Roblox |url=https://devforum.roblox.com/t/uncopylocked-games-should-not-show-the-404-error/4190610/}}</ref>

On November, 2025, Roblox released an update that required users on Australia, the Netherlands, and New Zealand to be age verified in order to use chat by either facial estimation or ID verification, which caused outrage amongst users.

====Team Create Blocked in Vietnam====

On June 11th, 2026, Roblox rolled out requiring either facial estimation or ID verification to use Team Create in Roblox Studio for shared collaboration, which previously did not need age checks. Due to age checks not being available in Vietnam, Team Create was disabled, preventing access to Team Create game development for those in Vietnam. No timeline was posted for when this would be resolved.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2026-06-11 |title=Age Requirements for Team Create in Studio - Updates / Announcements - Developer Forum {{!}} Roblox |url=https://devforum.roblox.com/t/age-requirements-for-team-create-in-studio/4539725/202 |url-status=live}}</ref>

+On June 11th, 2026, Roblox rolled out requiring either facial estimation or ID verification to use Team Create in Roblox Studio for shared collaboration, which previously did not need age checks. Due to age checks not being available in Vietnam, Team Create was disabled, preventing access to Team Create game development for those in Vietnam.
