What is Roblox?

Roblox is an online gaming platform that lets visitors jump into a world of games created by its thriving user community. It’s free to play and allows in-game purchases with its Robux virtual currency. Roblox is known for its massive game library, featuring popular titles like Brookhaven RP, Adopt Me!, and Blox Fruits.

Beyond gaming, Roblox offers extensive character customization, helping users personalize avatars and display names to match their distinct styles. It’s also a social hub where members can interact and connect with friends while exploring their favorite games.

Roblox hosts over 40 million games and has more than 216 million monthly active users.

Why do you need a VPN for Roblox?

A Roblox VPN (Virtual Private Network) can enhance your gaming experience by helping you:

Boost your online security

Roblox’s social features and in-game transactions can expose gamers to potential privacy risks. A VPN encrypts your internet traffic and hides your IP (Internet Protocol) address, making it much harder to track or access your data and keeping your personal information safe while you play your favorite games.

Reduce bandwidth throttling

If your Roblox games are lagging, it could be because your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is throttling your connection speed based on traffic type. To overcome these limitations and maximize your chances for smoother, throttle-free gameplay, get a VPN service for your online gaming.

Defend against DDoS attacks

Cyber harassment and DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks can ruin the best online game. A VPN shields your connection by hiding your IP address, making it significantly harder for attackers to target you. This added layer of protection helps you play worry-free in the face of malicious attempts to disrupt your gaming session.

Stay safe on public Wi-Fi

When using public Wi-Fi, Roblox users need to watch out for hackers, fake hotspots, and evil twin attacks. It’s all too easy to unwillingly reveal your info or login credentials to malicious actors over untrusted networks. With a robust VPN, you can protect your data and play with greater privacy and peace of mind.

Play Roblox anywhere

Your phone or laptop can run Roblox like any other app, but school or work network restrictions may block it. A VPN changes your IP address, helping you dive into Roblox from more locations and join your gaming server of choice. Access the platform through a VPN connection to enjoy your games on the go with an uninterrupted experience.

Advanced Surfshark VPN features for Roblox

Take your gaming to the next level with Surfshark’s enhanced features:

Split tunneling

Split tunneling lets you choose which traffic gets routed through your VPN and which stays on your regular internet connection. With Bypasser, Surfshark’s split tunneling tool, you can opt to only protect your gaming traffic, lessening the load on your VPN and helping you get an optimized gaming experience.

Rotating IP

Worried someone may have found your VPN connection’s IP address? Never fear — Surfshark’s Rotating IP keeps you private by periodically changing your IP address without disconnecting you from your VPN. If you think you might be the target of a DDoS attack, our Rotating IP makes you even more difficult to track.

Ad-free gaming

Surfshark’s CleanWeb ad blocker offers smoother, uninterrupted gameplay on the Roblox platform. Play as you please without worrying about ads, trackers, or links to malicious sites. Since CleanWeb prevents ads from loading in the first place, it can unlock more gaming by keeping you under any bandwidth limits.

Unlimited simultaneous connections

With a single Surfshark subscription, you can have our VPN app active on multiple devices at the same time. No matter where you access your Roblox account, you can game with greater security on your computers, tablets, smartphones, and more.

A vast server network

With 3,200+ VPN servers in 100 countries, Surfshark makes it easier for gamers to connect to their preferred server location without compromising internet speed. If one server is experiencing network congestion or increased online traffic, just switch to another — you’ve got plenty to choose from.

VPN obfuscation

Our Camouflage Mode hides the fact that you’re using a VPN, making your connection look like regular browsing traffic. Apart from added privacy, this gives gamers another tool to combat ISP throttling and access Roblox on restricted networks that might otherwise block VPNs or gaming sites.

Can I use a free VPN for Roblox?

Using a free VPN for Roblox isn’t recommended for the following reasons:

Security concerns: free VPNs usually offer few security features and might not encrypt your data effectively. Many track and log user data, putting your privacy at risk;
Speed and bandwidth limitations: free tools often come with bandwidth caps and overcrowded servers that hamper connection speed;
Unreliable connections: many free VPNs may have unstable connections, leading to lag and frequent gaming disruptions.

Even the best free VPN can’t compete with a paid tool like Surfshark, which offers the best value for the price.

Frequently asked questions

How do I change my display name in Roblox with a VPN?

You no longer need a VPN to change your display name in Roblox. To do it on PC:

Open the Roblox website and log in to your account.
Click the gear icon in the upper-right corner and select Settings.
Go to Account Settings.
Find the Display Name section and click the Edit button.
Enter your new display name and click Save.

Note that this is not the same as your username. You’ll still need to pay 1000 Robux — with or without a VPN — to change your username.

Which games can I play with a VPN instead of Roblox?

You can play nearly any online game with a VPN. Popular games that can benefit from a VPN include Fortnite, League of Legends, and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG).

Is it legal to use a VPN in Roblox?

Yes, it is legal to use a VPN with Roblox. A VPN can help you increase online safety, but you can’t use a VPN to violate Roblox’s terms of service or engage in any illegal activities on the platform. Always ensure your actions comply with Roblox’s rules and regulations.

Disclaimer: Please note that using Surfshark services for any illegal activities is strictly forbidden and violates our Terms of Service. Make sure that any use of Surfshark services for your particular activities conforms to all relevant laws and regulations, including those of any service providers and websites you access using Surfshark.

Will I get banned if I use a VPN on Roblox?

No, using a VPN on Roblox doesn’t automatically result in a ban. However, using a VPN to do anything that violates Roblox’s terms of service can lead to a ban or suspension.

Does a VPN affect Roblox ping?

While a VPN can offer increased online safety, there is a chance that it can lead to higher ping. Choosing a reliable VPN with high-speed servers — like Surfshark — can help minimize any added ping.
