The Hunt: Roblox 20 — All 20 Games, Rewards & How to Finish It (September 2026)

TL;DR: The Hunt: Roblox 20 is the platform-wide event celebrating Roblox's 20th anniversary, live September 17–28, 2026. It's the third installment of The Hunt and the biggest: 40 games take part — 20 you can play normally and 20 locked in a special "Infinity" mode. You start in a central hub, walk a chronological timeline of Roblox history, and clear one quest in each of the 20 regular games to earn its free UGC reward and unlock the next era. Finishing all 20 leads to "Year Infinity." There are no codes for this event — every reward is quest-earned, and everything is free. Early access opened to Roblox Plus members at 9 AM PT on September 17 (Roblox Plus replaced Premium in April 2026). The flagship participating games are still Roblox's biggest: on our live pull (2026-09-18) Blox Fruits had 347,272 players online, Murder Mystery 2 had 272,810, and Adopt Me! had 174,087.

Updated September 23, 2026 — five days left. Secret quest Wave 3 launched today; Wave 4 arrives September 25. The event hub has crossed 124 million plays. All 20 main quests and rewards remain earnable through September 28 at 17:00 UTC.

Roblox turns 20, and instead of a single birthday map, it built a tour through its own history. The Hunt: Roblox 20 drops you into a hub that runs from Crossroads (2006) to Grow a Garden (2025), and to move forward you actually have to go play the games that built the platform. It's part scavenger hunt, part museum, part free-UGC grab.

This guide covers the full event: how it works, every one of the 20 regular games and the era it sits in, how progression and the UGC rewards are locked, what "Year Infinity" is, the Roblox Plus early-access perks, and the questions players are actually asking on day two. Everything here is checked against Roblox's official newsroom announcement and the live game state as of September 18, 2026.

What is The Hunt: Roblox 20?

The Hunt: Roblox 20 is a limited-time, platform-wide event — not a single game. It was announced at the Roblox Innovation Awards during RDC 2026 and detailed in Roblox's newsroom on September 16, 2026. It's the third entry in The Hunt series (after The Hunt: First Edition and The Hunt: Mega Edition) and the anniversary edition marking 20 years of Roblox.

The structure is straightforward once you're in it:

• You spawn in a central hub built as a timeline of Roblox history.
• The timeline is split into eras — 2006–2007 up to 2023–2025 — each holding a handful of iconic games.
• In each game you complete one event quest to earn that game's UGC item (a free, wearable avatar accessory).
• Earning a game's reward unlocks the next era in the hub, so you progress chronologically.
• Clear all 20 regular games and you reach the finale, "Year Infinity."

The other 20 games are locked in "Infinity" mode — a harder or alternate version of the challenge — for a total of 40 participating experiences. The Hunt is free to everyone; you don't need to spend Robux to earn any of the standard rewards.

How to complete every quest: all 20 games step by step

This is the section most Hunt guides skip: the exact objective in each game, not just its name. All requirements are verified against multiple independent walkthroughs (Sportskeeda, TheClick.gg, TechWiser, AllThings.how, u7buy, Roonby, Gameshorizon). The UGC reward name follows each row.

Era	Game	Quest requirement	UGC reward
2006	Crossroads	Get 3 knockouts against other players (KOs carry across rounds — you don't need 3 in one life)	Crossroads Tower
2007	Sword Fights on the Heights IV	Collect 4 different swords from pedestals around the map	Duel of the Heights
2008	Rocket Arena	Score 5 knockouts using the rocket launcher (splash damage counts; spam from distance)	Brick-Blast Jetpack
2009	Chaos Canyon	Get 4 knockouts using any available weapon (the map is small — any weapon works)	Crest of the Canyon
2010	Work at a Pizza Place	Follow the quest chain: make and deliver pizzas, then interact with the time machine to complete. If the quest glitches, rejoin a fresh server — launch-day bug, fixed in most instances now.	Builder Brother's Balancing Act
2011	Natural Disaster Survival	Rescue 3 animals across disaster maps while surviving each round	The Disaster Forecaster
2012	Base Wars	Win 1 match. Each loss counts as 50% progress, so 2 losses = complete. Grab the Battle Tank at match start — it's immune to regular bullets.	Manliest Man Award
2013	Apocalypse Rising 2	Three-part quest: (1) Find the Loot — equip a primary weapon, backpack, and melee weapon in one life; (2) Zombie Hunter — kill 5 zombies; (3) Explore and Survive — walk 5,000 steps and witness one sunrise or sunset cycle. If you die during step 1, you restart that sub-quest.	Biting BLOXikin
2014	Murder Mystery 2	Collect 50 coins scattered across MM2 maps. Coins accumulate across rounds — you do not need 50 in a single match. See our full MM2 Hunt guide for coin location tips.	Knife-Dodger's Bighead
2015	Lumber Tycoon 2	Chop wood and deliver it to the Geck NPC. Use the Basic Truck to carry multiple logs at once — it significantly speeds up delivery.	Leather Adventure Backpack
2016	Roblox High School	Help Chuck, an NPC lost in the space-time continuum: follow his dialogue and complete his assignments in order	Time Travel Schoolpack
2017	Jailbreak	Find and rescue 5 YouTuber-named NPCs from locations across the map. Each NPC has its own mini-quest you complete before they're "rescued" — talk to them in order.	A Bandit's Bandana
2018	Build a Boat for Treasure	Build a boat, sail to the bakery, collect cake ingredients, and bake a cake	Build a Boat Top Hat
2019	Adopt Me!	Earn $400 in-game currency, purchase the Throwback Egg, then care for and hatch it. Complete basic daily tasks first to earn the currency faster.	The KittyKanka
2020	World // Zero	Climb the OG tower with Alex, clear every floor, and defeat the boss at the top. Play in a party when possible — the tower boss is significantly easier with multiple players.	Hounds of the Zero
2021	Piggy	Escape from 2 different maps in Book One (any two maps count)	Willow's Legacy Hood
2022	Berry Avenue RP	Complete quest chains in three roles: doctor, police officer, and air hostess	The Berry Bindle
2023	Blade Ball	Collect 3 Tix by defeating the Knight NPC three times (the Knight, not other players — wait for the Knight to spawn).	The Last Deflection
2024	Dress to Impress	Participate in 2 full rounds of the event's 2024 Dress to Impress mode. You don't need to win — just complete 2 rounds.	The Runway Sunhat
2025	Grow a Garden	Steal 50 fruits from Owl's garden and deliver them to Sam. Carry no more than 6–7 fruits per trip — carrying too many slows your character and lets Owl catch you.	Grown From a Garden

Quest requirements verified across six independent sources. Reward names may vary slightly between in-game tooltips and community databases — if you see a slightly different name in your inventory, it is the same item.

That's the 20-stop timeline. Several of these games are running the event live inside their own experience right now — Adopt Me!, Jailbreak and Dress To Impress all currently display Hunt/anniversary tags on their live game listing, which is how you can tell a game's quest is active.

How do you progress and unlock the next island?

The single most-asked mechanic on release day: progression is gated. You can't just walk to Grow a Garden and skip the old stuff. As one player put it after clearing the first stretch, "if you do it right you can skip a couple entire islands early if you don't care for the underwhelming UGC of the first 4–5, otherwise getting to the next island is locked behind either getting the UGC from the previous game."

In plain terms: to open the next era, you earn the reward from the games in the current one. If you don't care about a specific early UGC item, there are routes to skip ahead — but the default path is chronological, one game's quest at a time. Budget your time for the games you actually want the rewards from.

A few things worth knowing before you start:

• Each game has its own short quest. You're not beating the whole game — you're completing one event-specific objective inside it.
• Progress carries across sessions. You don't have to finish in one sitting; the hub remembers which eras you've unlocked.
• Some games get buggy under load. On launch, players reported the Work at a Pizza Place quest glitching and Rocket Arena resetting K/O counts. If a quest bugs out, rejoin the game — a fresh server usually fixes it.

What are the rewards? (UGC items and Year Infinity)

Every one of the 20 regular games hands out a free UGC accessory for finishing its quest. These are wearable avatar items — hats, back accessories, and similar — themed to each game and its era. Because they're tied to a limited-time event, they're the kind of items that stop being obtainable once the Hunt ends on September 28, so completionists want to grab them during the window.

Clearing all 20 leads into Year Infinity, the event's finale tied to the 20 "Infinity"-locked games. The regular 20 are your main path; Infinity is the extended challenge layered on top.

There are no promo codes in The Hunt: Roblox 20. Anyone telling you to enter a code, use a "free Robux" generator, or download a tool to auto-complete quests is running a scam — the event is entirely quest-based and free, and third-party "generators" are against Roblox's Terms of Use and put your account at risk.

Roblox Plus early access and perks

Roblox Plus members got a head start: early access opened at 9 AM PT on September 17, 2026, ahead of the general launch. (Roblox Plus is the subscription that replaced Roblox Premium in April 2026 — if you're looking for "Premium," that's the current name.)

Reported Plus perks for the event include a set of exclusive cosmetic items and a Classic app theme you can toggle on. Several of the anniversary cosmetic unlocks — the Classic theme, an avatar background, and a profile frame — are described as staying on your account after the event ends, unlike the game UGC which is earned per-quest. Non-subscribers still get the full 20-game hunt and all its UGC rewards; Plus just adds the early window and the extra cosmetics.

Secret quests, fragments, and the Dominus: the hidden layer

Finishing all 20 main quests unlocks Year Infinity in the hub — the event's second phase. Year Infinity contains 20 additional games representing Roblox's present and future, bringing the total to 40 participating experiences. But the part the community is actually racing right now is the secret quest layer that sits on top.

How secret quests work: Roblox releases 20 secret quests in four waves of five, every other day starting September 19:

• Wave 1 — September 19: Crossroads, Natural Disaster Survival, Work at a Pizza Place, Piggy, Blade Ball
• Wave 2 — September 21: next five (released)
• Wave 3 — September 23 (today): live now
• Wave 4 — September 25: final wave, two days before the event closes

Each secret quest rewards one exclusive virtual item plus one fragment. Collect all 20 fragments and the event hub opens a final puzzle. The first 20 players in the world to solve the puzzle receive the Dominus — a rainbow-coloured Dominus hood with floating infinity-symbol circles, one of the rarest items Roblox has ever distributed. The Dominus is competitive, not guaranteed. Wave 1's confirmed secret rewards include the Sparkwave Headset, the Hands-On Experience (back accessory), the Personal Safety Spikes, the Gear Hoarder Loadout Belt, and Original Web Elements.

Which participating games are the biggest right now?

Part of the appeal of The Hunt is that it funnels players through games that are still genuinely huge. Here's the live scoreboard for the flagship participating experiences, pulled from the official Roblox Games API on September 18, 2026:

• Blox Fruits — 347,272 players online, 64.5 billion lifetime visits
• Murder Mystery 2 — 272,810 players online, 30.6 billion visits
• Adopt Me! — 174,087 players online, 44.8 billion visits
• Dress To Impress — 82,744 players online, 11.0 billion visits
• Grow a Garden — 33,493 players online, 35.9 billion visits
• Jailbreak — 25,903 players online, 8.0 billion visits
• Blade Ball — 24,962 players online, 6.4 billion visits

Blox Fruits, currently on its Update 30 (Magnet) content, is the biggest single game in the event by concurrent players — a reminder that the anniversary lineup isn't nostalgia-only, it's stacked with games that are peaking today. (Note: Grow a Garden and Grow a Garden 2 are separate games; the Hunt lists the original Grow a Garden under its 2023–2025 era.)

Tips to finish The Hunt: Roblox 20 fast

• Do the games you want rewards from first. Since early UGC can be skipped, prioritize the eras with items you actually care about instead of grinding in order.
• Rejoin on bugs. Launch-window quest glitches (WAPP, Rocket Arena) usually clear with a fresh server — don't waste time fighting a broken run.
• Play on a stable connection. Mobile players reported heavy lag in the hub at peak times; a wired or strong Wi-Fi connection makes the timeline smoother.
• Grab items before September 28. Event UGC becomes unobtainable when the Hunt closes. Don't leave the last few eras for the final day.
• Skip the "cheat" traps. No code, generator, or executor completes quests for you. They're scams and ToS violations.

Where boosting fits in

The Hunt itself is free and quest-based — you don't need to buy anything to earn its rewards. Where a service helps is after the event, in the flagship games it sends you into. If the Hunt gets you hooked on Blox Fruits' Magnet update or you want a head start in one of the anniversary games instead of grinding levels and currency from zero, that's where a carry saves you time:

Skip the grind in the games The Hunt puts in front of you:

• Roblox boosting & carries — leveling, currency and carries across Roblox's biggest games, including Blox Fruits
• Roblox pets & value services — top pets and farming help for the pet-economy games featured in the event

FAQ

When does The Hunt: Roblox 20 end? The event runs from September 17 to September 28, 2026. After it closes, the event UGC rewards become unobtainable, so finish the eras you want before the 28th.

How many games are in The Hunt: Roblox 20? Forty games total — 20 you can play in the regular hunt and 20 locked in "Infinity" mode. Clearing the 20 regular games leads to the Year Infinity finale.

Are there codes for The Hunt: Roblox 20? No. There are no promo codes. Every reward is earned by completing each game's event quest. Any "code" or "free Robux generator" for the event is a scam and violates Roblox's Terms of Use.

Do you need Roblox Plus to play The Hunt? No. The full 20-game hunt and all its UGC rewards are free to everyone. Roblox Plus members just got early access at 9 AM PT on September 17 plus some exclusive cosmetics. (Roblox Plus replaced Roblox Premium in April 2026.)

Can you skip games in The Hunt: Roblox 20? Partly. Progression is normally gated — you earn a game's UGC to unlock the next era. But players have found you can skip past some of the earliest islands if you don't want their rewards. If you want every item, plan to clear each era in order.

What is Year Infinity? Year Infinity is the event's finale, reached after you complete all 20 regular games. It ties into the 20 "Infinity"-locked experiences that make up the harder half of the 40-game lineup.

What are the secret quests in The Hunt: Roblox 20? Secret quests are a hidden second objective track that only unlocks after you complete all 20 main historical quests and reach Year Infinity. Roblox releases them in four waves of five, every other day starting September 19 (waves on Sept 19, 21, 23, 25). Each secret quest rewards an exclusive item plus one fragment. Collect all 20 fragments to unlock a final puzzle in the hub. See our secret quests guide for the full breakdown.

What is the Dominus in The Hunt: Roblox 20, and how do you get it? The Dominus is the rarest prize in the event — a rainbow Dominus hood with floating infinity symbols, awarded to only the first 20 players worldwide who collect all 20 fragments (from the 20 secret quests) and solve the final hub puzzle. It is a competitive speed-run prize, not a completion reward. With four waves releasing through September 25 and the event closing September 28 at 17:00 UTC, the race is extremely tight.

Why is a quest not working / glitched? Under launch-day load, some quests (like Work at a Pizza Place and Rocket Arena) bugged out or reset progress. Leaving and rejoining the game to get a fresh server is the usual fix.
