Roblox updates its platform frequently — adding new graphics features, avatar customization tools, social features, and developer tools. Knowing what's new helps you get more out of every session.
Major Recent Roblox Updates
Avatar Layered Clothing
Roblox now supports layered clothing — items that physically drape over your avatar's body, allowing realistic outfit combinations.
Spatial Voice
Spatial Voice (voice chat) is available for age-verified players. Audio volume changes based on your distance from other players in-game.
Creator Hub
The updated Creator Hub gives developers detailed analytics, easier monetization tools, and improved game performance dashboards.
Avatar and Cosmetic Updates
- Dynamic heads: 3D animated faces that show expressions in supported games
- Layered clothing physics: Clothes that move and fit realistically over different body types
- Avatar auto-scaling: Body proportions that adjust automatically based on the game's avatar settings
- New bundle types: Bundles now include accessories, animations, and faces together
How to Enable New Avatar Features: Go to your Avatar settings at Roblox.com/my/avatar. Look for "Avatar Type" — switch to R15 to use layered clothing and dynamic heads. Note that some games force their own avatar settings regardless of your personal preferences.
