To change your game’s Audience Reach in Roblox, open the experience in Creator Hub, go to the Audience Reach section, and follow the eligibility steps Roblox shows there. Roblox’s current discovery system is designed around long-term retention and audience-safety rules, so changing reach can depend on meeting specific requirements first.

What the current reach means

“Reach” is basically how broadly Roblox recommends your game, especially in home recommendations. According to Roblox forum discussions, games with a limited reach may still be searchable and joinable by friends, but they may not appear as often in recommendations for younger players.

Why you may not be able to change it yet

Roblox community reports say the current process can require two stages: first, basic eligibility to publish for all ages, and then a separate evaluation period where the game must show strong engagement from a minimum number of older players within a time window. One report says Roblox may require either a 1,000 Robux fee or 2 months of Plus eligibility before that review path opens.

Practical steps

  1. Open the game in Creator Hub.
  2. Go to Audience Reach.
  3. Check whether Roblox lists any unmet requirements.
  4. Complete the requirements shown there, then wait for the evaluation to finish.
  5. Recheck the setting after the eligibility period updates.

Important note

Roblox’s discovery changes are not just a simple toggle now; they are tied to discovery signals and retention, so a game can stay restricted until it proves it qualifies for broader distribution. That means the exact setting you see may change depending on your game’s current status and audience history.
