The Game Awards 2026 will be streamed live on Roblox for the first time when the ceremony takes place Thursday, Dec. 10. The broadcast will be hosted inside The Block, Roblox’s virtual event venue, giving users another way to follow the annual awards show.
The physical ceremony is scheduled for the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The Roblox presentation will begin at 7:30 p.m. ET, with the virtual venue carrying the full program rather than a separate preview or companion event. The show is expected to include awards, musical performances, game announcements and world premieres.
Access to the Roblox watch party will be limited to users who are 18 or older. The Game Awards said viewers in the experience will also be able to participate in official category voting, communicate with other attendees and obtain virtual merchandise. More information about the Roblox experience is expected before the ceremony.
“On December 10th, #TheGameAwards makes history as the show will stream live in @Roblox for the first time. Fans 18+ will be able to watch, vote and interact LIVE alongside gaming's biggest night. More details coming soon.” — The Game Awards
What viewers can expect
The Roblox version is being presented as a shared viewing experience inside The Block. Along with the live program, the event will provide interactive features tied to the ceremony, including voting and virtual items. Category voting will also be available before the show begins.
- Date: Thursday, Dec. 10
- Start time: 7:30 p.m. ET
- Roblox venue: The Block
- Age requirement: Users must be 18 or older
The Game Awards will also be carried by Disney+, in addition to the Roblox stream. Availability of the Disney+ broadcast depends on the service’s rollout in each market. The Roblox announcement specifically establishes the platform as a new distribution venue for an external awards show, rather than a Roblox-produced awards program.
The 2026 ceremony will continue the show’s established format, combining awards with new game announcements, trailers and musical performances. For Roblox users who meet the age requirement, the event will add a social viewing option to the conventional broadcast channels while the in-person ceremony takes place in Los Angeles.
