Your Roblox screen is black due to a few common reasons. One issue could be with graphics settings, like the “Future” lighting bug. Switching your lighting technology to “Voxel” or another setting might fix this. Another possible cause is outdated or faulty graphics drivers. Updating these drivers can help resolve the problem.
Scripts or GUI issues in the game can also make your screen go black. Some scripts, especially those in the `DepartureBoards` folder, might insert black screens into the `StarterGui`. Free models with scripts, using the `require()` system, can also cause this issue.
System configurations might be another reason. Sometimes, the Windows Defender Firewall blocks Roblox, leading to a black screen. Allowing Roblox through the firewall could solve this. Additionally, turning on the “Reduce Motion” setting on some devices has been effective in fixing the black screen issue.
Game-specific problems can also cause black screens. If this started happening after a recent update to Roblox or a specific game, waiting for the developers to fix the issue or reverting to an older version might help.
To troubleshoot, check for script or GUI issues, update your graphics drivers, change the lighting technology, allow Roblox through the firewall, and turn on “Reduce Motion”. If none of these steps work, the problem might be with Roblox itself, and you may need to wait for an official fix.
