## About

Development environment for creating and publishing games on the Roblox platform

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. A community report in January 2026 found that while Roblox itself is reachable, Roblox Studio is blocked because its authentication relies on US servers that reject most Syrian IP addresses. The team contacted the company in February 2026, but no response has been received and there is no resolution yet.

## Official timeline

- 2026-02-09 — Contacted Company. Outreach email sent to Roblox at legal@roblox.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions for Roblox Studio under the current post-sanctions legal framework.

## Community reports

- 2026-01-21 — Investigated. While Roblox is accessible in Syria, Roblox Studio is blocked because it uses American servers for authentication, which mostly restrict Syrian IPs. Its website for documentation and resources is accessible, but the application remains blocked for Syrian users.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
