Wherever you're playing Roblox, it's a good idea to use a VPN. Playing online without one is like leaving your house unlocked and your windows wide open. That's why we've partnered with Surfshark, a VPN provider that offers all the features you need to stay safe, no matter what you're playing on Roblox or where you're playing it. And it costs as little as $2.49 a month on a long-term plan.
To give you a better idea of why we're recommending Surfshark, we've put together a list of four reasons why we use it for everything from securing our data while collecting carrots in Grow a Garden 2 to boosting your signal strength as we scour the seas in Blox Fruits. So, let's get right into it.
1. Play anywhere, protected
If you play Roblox on your phone or tablet, you'll have to connect to countless different Wi-Fi networks while out and about. Without a VPN, your data and any personal information on your device are at risk. That's not the case if you're using Surfshark, though.
By connecting to one of Surfshark's countless servers, you can keep your device and data safe from anyone trying to access them, no matter where you are. Better still, the Surfshark One bundle also comes with antivirus software, which goes the extra mile to protect your hardware, and Surfshark Alert, a feature you can use to make sure your email hasn't been part of any data leaks. That means you don't have to worry about safety and can concentrate on playing your favorite games.
2. Lose the lag
There's nothing worse than jumping on your favorite Roblox game and dealing with lag or performance issues. Well, Surfshark can come in handy there, too. To spare you the technical details, lag in Roblox is often due to server congestion or a busy network path. By trying out multiple servers, you can find a more efficient connection, which, in turn, means less lag and more reliable performance.
Another reason for lag could be your service provider throttling your connection speed, and guess what? A VPN has you covered there, too. Surfshark can get around your ISP's limitations to find the best possible connection for gaming, which is exactly what you need if you're playing a multiplayer game like Rivals or Murder Mystery 2, where every second counts.
3. Platform protection
Roblox might be one of the most popular platforms on the planet, but some games can still fall victim to DDoS attacks. These types of cyber attacks are as dangerous to users as they are to developers. A VPN such as Surfshark is the best way to make sure that if your current favorite game suffers a DDoS, your IP address is protected, making it much harder for attackers to access your data.
As well as securing your devices, Surfshark protects your Roblox account, reducing the risk of someone accessing your email address or, worse still, your password. This is especially important if you or someone you know has their payment details and your Robux attached to your account. Roblox has improved its security in recent years, but we'd still recommend using a VPN to double up on protection.
4. Easy to use
Some VPNs require a lot of setup, but not Surfshark. Just make an account, download the app, and sign in. That applies whether you're gaming on your phone, tablet, or PC, and you can be logged on to multiple devices at once. Once you've signed in, you can choose from servers across the globe, each with a symbol highlighting the signal strength at any given time.
Better still, you can bookmark specific servers, so jumping from a US connection to one in Europe, Asia, or South America takes just a few seconds. That means you can immediately see how a game runs in a different region, rather than wasting time tinkering with your settings. You can also pause your Surfshark VPN connection with the touch of a button if you're trying to access sites that don't play well with a VPN connection.
It's for all those reasons and more that we recommend using Surfshark to stay safe while playing Roblox. You can check out all the plan options on the official Surfshark site and save more by signing up for a one-year or two-year subscription.
