Roblox is a kids game that was launched on September 1, 2006 and is still one of the most popular games ever around the world.

Censorship[]

Roblox is banned in Jordan probably due to bad language and violence.

Roblox, along with many other websites, was banned in the United Arab Emirates in May 2018 in the order of Dr. Hamad Saif Al Shamsi, the Attorney General of the United Arab Emirates. This is due to players being able to display or wear NSFW avatars or communicate with obscenity. However in 2021, the ban was lifted. Gulf News reached out to UAE's Telecom and Regulatory Authority (TRA), and a spokesperson for the authority confirmed that the platform is not banned in the UAE as of now. Based on our check, Roblox is available to download through iOS App Store and Android Play Store on UAE devices.
