How many friends can you have on Roblox?

Do I even have that many friends?

Since its inception, the Roblox community has been a driving force behind the push for an increased friend limit. By October 2024, the community’s efforts had sparked rumors of a boost, and the change was set to come to fruition by early 2025.

Now, the long-awaited moment has arrived for a new update, and we’re here to show you how many friends you can have in Roblox.

What is the friend limit on Roblox?

The new Roblox update lets you have up to 1,000 friends in your network, unlike its previous 200 limit. The friend system has evolved over the years, starting with the early days of unlimited friends and the Best Friend feature. Roblox developers then simplified it by limiting the system, seemingingly to improve its mechanics.

Curiously enough, there have been no announcements regarding the 1,000 friend change, whether it be on the Developer Forum or its Twitter/X account. Even though there hasn’t been an official confirmation, I’ve checked several accounts, like the popular user Roblox_RTC, and see they’ve hit the 1,000 mark.

Given the recent end-of-the-year roadmap from the Developer Forum, we could get more concrete information with an early 2025 round-up. While we wait for official announcements, you can already experience the new friend limit for yourself and go on adventures with the title’s many games. And who knows? There might be even more increases in the future. If you’re one of those who need more than 1,000 friends, kudos to you; I don’t even think I know that many people.

The year 2025 promises many other exciting new elements for Roblox, including improvements to avatar settings and additional creator/user tools. The Jan. 6-10 weekly recap also mentions more preventions for account farming that’s been used to exploit Roblox features. Further fixes to the platform will continue to be released for a more balanced and smoother experience, making Roblox bigger than it already is.
