Roblox: How To Find What Game Someone Is In

Playing with friends is always more fun – for this reason, Roblox allows checking which games your friends are currently playing unless they have restricted access to this information. In some cases, you may even see current games of players that aren’t on your friend list. If you’re wondering how to do that, read our guide.

In this article, we’ll explain how to find out which game your friends and other users are currently playing on Roblox. Additionally, we’ll provide instructions to joining your friend’s current games, joining groups, and adding users to your friend list.

Finding Your Friend’s Currently Playing Game in Roblox

In the “Friends” tab, you can see a list of all the games your friends are playing on Roblox. Here’s how to find it:

1. Sign in to Roblox.
   
2. On the main page, click the three-stripe icon in the upper left-hand corner of your screen to open the sidebar.
   
3. Click “Friends.”
   
4. If your friend hasn’t restricted access to their games, you will see which games your friend is currently playing.
   
5. Even if the specific game your friend is playing isn’t visible, you will still see a green controller icon beside their username if they’re online.
   

The following option may be more convenient if you wish to find out which game a specific friend is currently playing:

2. Type in the player’s username in the search box at the upper left-hand corner of your screen.
