Sober is a specialized runtime that lets users play Roblox experiences natively on Linux desktops, distributed as a Flatpak package. It runs Roblox's Android x86-64 code in a purpose-built runtime rather than relying on Wine, emulators, or virtual machines.
Use cases
- play roblox on linux
- run roblox without wine or a vm
- install roblox via flatpak on my desktop
- get better roblox performance than the windows client
- play roblox experiences on a linux machine
- run roblox on linux with vulkan or opengl
When to choose
- you want to play Roblox on a Linux desktop with native-like performance
- you prefer a Flatpak install over Wine, Android emulators, or virtual machines
- your CPU is x86-64 with SSE4.1/4.2 and your GPU supports Vulkan or OpenGL ES 3.0
When to avoid
- you need Roblox Studio on Linux (use Vinegar instead)
- you require open-source software - Sober's runtime is closed-source
- you need ARM support in production (only an open beta exists)
- you need a distribution method other than Flatpak
