There's always so many games and so many free codes to keep a track of when it comes to Roblox. Sometimes you'll find codes on X, other times on Discord, sometimes you'll have to follow an entire questline worth of steps before you can even think of redeeming codes. You'll also have to deal with expired codes, on top of fake codes, so it's understandable that it can get frustrating. This is why we are here to show you the five best and reliable ways of getting codes without lots of struggle.
What Are Roblox Codes and Why Do They Expire?
If you are new to Roblox and haven't had a chance to encounter this kind of system before, codes are essentially free rewards which developers create for their games during milestones, limited-time events, or to apologize for bugs. The rewards usually include in-game currency, specific boosts, limited time UGCs, and more.
Not every game on Roblox has a code redemption system, but most do (which is something we are always happy about). One important thing to note about codes, however, is that they are not active forever. Most commonly, Roblox codes expire withing a week or a month, rarely do they last longer than that. Considering how you can miss out on some great rewards, you'll want to stay on top of all updates through the methods below!
Method #1: Follow Official Game Social Media Channels
If you want to go directly to the source, then following official social media channels for games and game studios is the way to go. This way you can cut out the middle man and be sure that none of the codes are fake, which is a big plus. However, keeping track of all media channels for every single game, every single game can become quite a chore. The best would be to follow and join Discord (if available) of the games you most often play, and stick to other sources for games you don't.
Where to Follow
To find all available social media channels for each game on Roblox, follow the steps below:
- Go to the Roblox browser page of the game you are interested in.
- In the About tab, scroll down until you see the Social Links section.
- Click on the icons (usually Discord, X, and YouTube) to reach their social media channels.
If a game on Roblox doesn't have any social media linked here, there is one more thing you can do.
- Scroll all the way back up.
- Underneath the game name, you will see the ''By...'' section. Click on this link to go to the community page.
- Once there, click on the More button and an About window will pop up. Social links can sometimes be found here even when there aren't any on the game page itself.
Method #2: Use Trusted Roblox Code Websites
Roblox code websites are dedicated to collecting all of the active codes for you. That means you don't have to dive through information on various social media channels, which saves up more of your time to just playing the games. You can start with Pro Game Guides, as we update our codes lists daily with new codes for all games.
Method #3: Install a Roblox Codes Browser Extension
Even with a dedicated website collecting all of the codes for you, it will still take you time to find the exact code page for the game you are looking for. There's also a risk of the codes list not being updated. To shorten your research time, you can install a Codes Browser Extension like Codes Hunter by BloxInformer. Once it's installed, all it takes is a few seconds for you to look up a game and for the extension to find all available codes for it.
How to Install
The installation process is very simple, as you can see from the steps below:
- Go to the Codes Hunter page on the Chrome webstore.
- Click on Add to Chrome, then Add Extension in the pop-up window.
- The extension will be added to your browser, which you can now access at any time to search up codes.
Method #4: Watch Roblox Content Creators on YouTube
Code content for Roblox is very popular on YouTube and you can quickly find a new video with up-to-date active codes for most games. However, if the game has less CCU, that also means less people who create content, so this method may not be as reliable as others. The best thing you can do is find one good YouTuber who does codes (and perhaps even guides) content for your favorite Roblox games, and give them a follow.
Method #5: Participate in In-Game Events and Updates
Oftentimes, a good way to get a codes for a game as soon as they are out is to be in the game during events and updates. These usually happen weekly or bi-weekly (especially for the most popular games), and most often on the weekends when a lot of the player base is free. Updates and events usually mean new codes, so if you've been waiting for those cool freebies, make sure to check out either the Codes Hunter extension or dedicated Roblox Code Websites, as they will most often be updated the fastest.
Pro Tips for Finding and Using Roblox Codes
- Check for live events like Admin Abuse in games, as they usually come with new codes.
- Install the Code Hunter extension to make research quicker and easier.
- Bookmark credible Roblox Code Websites like Pro Game Guides to stay up to date.
