When did Roblox come back online?
The popular site came back online on 9pm EST.
The Roblox investigation team was made aware of the situation which was affecting millions of players around the world.
However they did not give a time frame on when the servers will be back online.
The official Roblox account apologised for the delay.
How did the Roblox team respond?
A Twitter message from an unofficial Roblox Status account said: “Looks like #Roblox is currently experiencing issues!
“We’ll update you if we receive any further information. Services impacted: Games & Account Information.”
Downdetector had also been reporting issues with the site.
A tweet from the official Roblox account said: “We know you’re having issues using Roblox right now.
“We’re sorry and working hard to get things back to normal.”
It later added: “Still making progress on today’s outage. We’ll continue to keep you updated.
“Once again, we apologize for the delay.”
There are many reasons why Roblox could have been experiencing technical difficulties, most likely due to maintenance or bug fixes.
But Roblox confirmed on Twitter that it was “not related to any specific experiences or partnerships on the platform”.
According to Downdetector, there were tens of thousands of Roblox outage reports.
These related to accessing the website, logging in and the server connection.
