Designer:  David Baszucki and Erik Cassel
Typography:  Arial Bold / Regular
Launched:  2004

Roblox would be finalized as the name choice in February 2004 during the second half of its development. This change was made because the developers believed the name DynaBlocks would be difficult for users to remember, instead choosing a more memorable name, being Roblox. The trademark was officialized in March 2004.

2004–2005[]

Designer:  Mike Rayhawk
Typography:  Custom
Launched:  October 23, 2006[1]

Roblox was officially launched in 2006, though contrary to popular belief, it did not launch with this logo. According to illustrator Mike Rayhawk, this logo was compiled in October 2006 and was intended as a mock-up for a website redesign. The Roblox team apparently loved the logo so much that it became the next official Roblox logo.[2] Even after the end of its usage, this logo was still used on Roblox avatar shirts officially made by Roblox, on the outfits of guest accounts until 2016, on the site banner until 2009, and was on the PayPal Builders' Club website.

(modified)
Launched:  August 26, 2022

On August 26, 2022, following a leak three days prior, Roblox revealed that they had updated their logo and that they would start rolling it out across the entire platform within the following week.[5] Like the previous logo, this design is reminiscent of Mike Rayhawk's March 2006 logo sketches.

The font of the logo was changed from Gill Sans Ultra Bold to Gotham, hence making the logo look overall less bold. Moreover, the second "O" was modified from a square to just a regular O, though the first O had the tilted square remain. The reason for this was to make the first O stand out more.
