Set a password when you first create your Roblox account

When you sign up for Roblox, you choose a password as part of making your account. You pick this password yourself — Roblox does not assign one to you. The password needs to be at least eight characters long and should include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers to be find.

If you created your account using Google, Facebook, or another login method instead of a username and password, you still have the option to add a password later. This lets you log in with either method.

Key Takeaways

  • You create your own password when you sign up for Roblox, choosing at least eight characters that mix uppercase, lowercase, and numbers.
  • If you signed up through Google or Facebook, you can add a password to your account in your settings at any time.
  • To change your password, go to Account Settings, select Password, and enter your current password before creating a new one.
  • If you forget your password, use the "Forgot password?" link on the login page to reset it through your email address.
  • A strong password should not be your username, your real name, or a word found in the dictionary.

Add a password to an account created through Google or Facebook

If you joined Roblox by signing in with Google or Facebook, you can add a traditional username-and-password login later. Go to the Roblox website and log in using your Google or Facebook account. Click the gear icon in the top right corner to open Settings.

Select Account from the left menu, then find the Password section. Click "Add a Password" and enter a new password that is at least eight characters long. Roblox will ask you to confirm the password by typing it again. Once you save it, you can log in using either your Google or Facebook account or your new username and password.

Change your password in Account Settings

To change an existing password, log into your Roblox account and click the gear icon in the top right. Select Account, then find the Password section and click "Change Password."

Roblox will ask you to enter your current password first. This confirms that you are the account owner. After you enter it correctly, you can type your new password. Make sure it is at least eight characters and includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers. Type the new password again to confirm it, then save the change.

Reset your password if you forget it

If you cannot remember your password, go to the Roblox login page and click "Forgot password?" below the login button. Enter the email address connected to your account. Roblox will send you an email with a link to reset your password.

Open the email and click the reset link. You will be taken to a page where you can create a new password. The link in the email usually works for a limited time, so reset your password soon after you receive the email. Once you create a new password, you can log in normally.

Make your password strong and keep it private

A strong password is harder for someone else to guess or crack. Avoid using your Roblox username, your real name, or common words. Do not use passwords you have used on other websites. Each account should have its own unique password.

Never share your password with friends, even if they ask. Roblox support staff will never ask for your password. If someone claims to be from Roblox and asks for your password, they are trying to steal your account. Keep your password to yourself and change it if you think someone else knows it.

What to do if your account was accessed without permission

If you think someone logged into your account without your permission, change your password when ready using the steps above. Then go to your Account Settings and check the "Sessions" or "Login History" section if available — this shows where and when your account was accessed.

If you see logins from places you do not recognize, or if you cannot log in because the password has been changed, contact Roblox support through the Help page on their website. Describe what happened and provide as much detail as you can. Roblox support can help you regain control of your account.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the same password for Roblox and other websites?

You can, but it is not recommended. If one website is hacked, someone could use that password to access your Roblox account and other accounts. Using a different password for each website protects you if one site is compromised.

What happens if I forget my password and do not have access to my email?

If you cannot access the email address linked to your account, contact Roblox support through the Help page on their website. Explain that you cannot access your email and provide details about your account. Support can work with you to verify you own the account and help you regain access.

How often should I change my Roblox password?

You do not need to change your password on a set schedule if you use a strong, unique password and keep it private. Change it if you think someone else knows it, if you used the same password on another website that was hacked, or if you have not changed it in over a year.

Can I use special characters like ! or @ in my Roblox password?

Roblox passwords can include letters, numbers, and some special characters. When you create or change your password, Roblox will tell you if a character is not allowed. Stick to uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and common symbols like periods or hyphens to be safe.
