    Playing Roblox on Linux

    Playing Roblox on Linux

    Getting Roblox to work on your Chromebook using Linux is a bit tricky. First, you need to install the Linux operating system.

    After that, you can either run Roblox in a virtual machine or use WineHQ to play the Windows version.

    • To begin, install Linux on your Chromebook. Once it’s set up, you can choose to use a virtual machine (VM) or WineHQ.
    • If you want to run Roblox in a VM and have it set up with either macOS or Windows, visit the Roblox website to download the version that matches your virtual system.
    • If you prefer WineHQ, first download the latest stable version from the WineHQ website. After setting it up, go to the Roblox website to download the Windows version of the game. This should let you run the Roblox EXE file on Linux.

    Keep in mind that playing Roblox on Linux might not be as smooth as on other systems. But if you have an older Chromebook, this could be your best option.
