Roblox makes unrated games inaccessible starting next month, has a plan for old favorites 'to ensure these cherished classics are not lost'

Four Roblox player avatars jumping toward the screen, all in various art styles to show user avatar options.

Roblox is in the midst of expanding and implementing new systems and policies around age verification and user safety, including setting a date for when it plans to restrict unrated Roblox experiences for all users. Starting on September 30, 2025, (most) unrated games will not be playable or discoverable by anyone.

When the new rules roll out next month, unrated games won't be deleted entirely, but instead locked to a developer-only view limited to "people actively working on the experience." That's good news for developers who may need more time to comply with the short notice, but the decision raised concerns about rendering unrated, abandoned games entirely inaccessible.
