Roblox, like any game, can sometimes have moments that you want to share with others, may that be your friends, family, or random people on the internet. Trust us. We wish we had recorded all the sick no scopes we hit in No-scope arcade.

Recording gameplay is important also for any up-and-coming content creator who might want to record Roblox videos to share on social media platforms such as TikTok, Youtube, or Instagram for all their followers to see. Fortunately, there are multiple ways to record your Roblox gameplay, both for a PC and for mobile.

Recording Roblox Gameplay on a PC

If you're looking to record Roblox gameplay on a PC, there are three leading methods depending on what you want to use for recording. One of them, however, can only be used if your PC has Windows 10 or 11 installed.

Method 1: Using the Built-in Screen Recorder for Roblox

The first and easiest method is simply using the built-in screen recorder that comes with Roblox. To record Roblox gameplay this way, you'll have to

First, boot up Roblox and load in any game. If you aren’t able to join a game, then read our guide on what to do when unable to join Roblox.

1. Click the Roblox icon on the upper left corner, which will pause the game.

2. You'll see five subheadings on your screen (Players, settings, report, help, and record). Click on the 'Record' one to bring up two options for you to choose from. You could either take a normal screenshot or click on the screen recording buttonto start recording.

3. You'll know you're in recording mode, as there will be a red outline surrounding your entire screen telling you your gameplay is being recorded.

4. To stop recording at any time, simply pause, go to recording, and instead of 'start recording' you'll see an option to 'Stop recording'. Press it, and you'll find the recorded video in your files.

While this method is the easiest, as everyone can do it, there are certain cons. The first and most apparent is that the video recording quality leaves a lot to be desired, as the other methods we'll be showing are much better in that regard. For example, this built-in recorder Roblox provides its players with records in only 15-20 fps with 480 resolution.

Additionally, this recorder is limited when it comes to recording options. You can't include your voice while recording, and you can't display a webcam. However, sharing your recorded gameplay video becomes easy if you link your YouTube account.

Method 2: Using Xbox/Windows game bar

Our next Roblox screen recorder method is only for players playing Roblox on a PC with Windows 10 or 11 installed, as having access to the Xbox or Windows game bar is crucial for this to work.

1. First, load in any Roblox game.

2. Then, press Windows+G to bring up the Xbox game bar.

   

3. If the recording box isn't there, press on 'capture' to make it pop up.

4. From all the options you get, click on 'record' to begin recording your gameplay. Alternatively, you could press Windows+alt+R.

5. While your Roblox gameplay is recording, you could press Windows+alt+M to toggle your microphone audio on and off if you want to record Roblox with voice.

   

6. When you're done recording, bring up the game bar again and press 'stop recording'. Alternatively, you could press Windows+alt+R as well.
   

The Xbox game bar gameplay video recorder is much more preferred when compared to the built-in game recorder Roblox provides. Not only is the video quality better, but you could also record Roblox with voice via your microphone.
