Hundreds of Roblox players have reported outages and connection errors.

Data on website Downdetector showed a huge spike in issues with the platform just after 10am.

Roblox is a free online gaming platform where users build their own virtual worlds and they can play games they have created themselves or by others. Once you sign up, you can play an infinite number of games and chat with other users while appearing as in-game ‘avatars’.

“Every day millions of people come to Roblox to create, play and connect with each other in experiences built by our global community of creators,” it states on its website.

But it has also been criticised as a dangerous place for children due to exposure to inappropriate content. And there has also been concern over people being drawn into spending more money as if users want to to upgrade their avatar or get specific upgrades, they have to spent real money on Robux, the in-game currency.
