Roblox breaks ground on data center in Brazil for early 2026
1 min read
Summary
Roblox has announced the construction of a data centre in São Paulo, Brazil, which is scheduled to open in early 2026.
The centre will offer benefits such as improved frame rates, faster response times and reduced load times, and will support high-fidelity games.
It will also allow Roblox developers to create more competitive gameplay experiences, and will optimize performance on both high- and lower-end devices.
Brazil is Roblox’s second-biggest market, having grown by 181% over the past four years, and the firm sees the data centre as a way of further expanding its Brazilian user base.
The completion of the centre will be followed by the introduction of regional pricing, allowing developers to offer in-experience item prices that are more reflective of local economies.
