Roblox Confirms Launch Date For PS4 and PS5, Coming This October
On the site known as Roblox, gamers and game developers may have fun. It is a platform where independent and individual developers can develop their own game and other can play it. Events, games, and activities are just a few of the many diverse things you may do on Roblox. According to the company’s official statistics, the platform has more than 65.5 million users at this time. The annual Roblox Developers Conference (RDC) 2023 event was held on Friday by Roblox.
At the annual event, David Baszucki, the CEO of Roblox, made announcements about new features coming to the game, such as voice calling and dating. Along with that, Baszucki provided a much awaited response to the query, “Will Roblox be playable on PS4 and PS5?” Find out now!
When Is Roblox Coming on PS4 and PS5?
Back in 2006, Roblox made its Windows debut. Since then, it has spread to a number of additional platforms. On Android, iOS, and Xbox One, Roblox is already accessible. Jobs posted by Roblox in 2022 gave some indication that the company was aiming to fill positions relating to the PlayStation. According to the job description, the PlayStation software engineer will be responsible for developing and maintaining the Roblox game engine for PlayStation gaming devices.
Additionally, Baszucki stated on the August earnings call that Roblox intends to explore more platforms and be accessible to people worldwide. Baszucki responded to a press inquiry on Roblox’s compatibility with the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation systems. Naturally, we are keeping an eye on those platforms and will keep you updated.
Baszucki didn’t provide a definitive response, but there is a reason behind that. Roblox will debut on PS4 and PS5 in October 2023, the business formally announced at RDC 2023 in September. We still don’t know the exact day that Roblox will be available on the PlayStation, but at least we know when it will.

Users of the PS5 and PS4 will be able to “access the full catalog of Roblox experiences” on their systems after the official release. This implies that you may sign in whenever Roblox is accessible on PlayStation systems and begin enjoying your preferred games, such as Blox Fruits or Bad Business.
Is Roblox Coming to Nintendo Switch?
However, Roblox, which was initially released as a “public beta” earlier this year, has reached a million downloads on the Meta Quest VR headset. Later this month, in September, it will be formally accessible on Meta Quest. The Nintendo Switch, however, is another story.
Speaking of a possible Nintendo Switch release, a Roblox representative stated (via The Verge) that no “imminent plans” exist to make their well-known social and gaming app available on Nintendo Switch. The representative did, however, clarify that they want Roblox to be accessible on all platforms, so a later release is not ruled out. Baszucki mentioned the same idea on stage at RDC 2023, adding to keep an eye out as Roblox expands to new locations.
