Best Roblox Survival Games To Play
Last updated: Mar 31, 2025 • 5 min readRoblox is a platform where everyone can create their own games and share them with the world.
There is a wide variety Roblox games out there, but few are better than survival games!
They have everything! Interesting stories, gameplay, and a competitive aspect to it.
Survival games face you against deadly monsters, harsh environments and your friends in order to achieve the main goal: surviving.
If you want to play the best survival games, we prepared not one, but two lists:
- The best Roblox survival games
- Honorable mentions of other survival games we enjoyed playing
The Best Roblox Survival Games
Just a heads up! Some of these games can get quite scary, so if you are easily scared, it might be better to have your friends close by.
Zombie Outbreak Survival!
Fight zombies with your friends as hordes of the monsters storm the island.
Find guns, trade weapons and watch your back, or a zombie might jump you and take you down!
Play with close friends or with some randoms, the choice is up to you.
The best strategy? Try to find a spot with sole access to it.
That way, the undead will only be able to get you from one side.
The key to winning most games on Roblox is strategy.
So exercise your brain!
Heads up
Play with friends! A survival game is always more fun with some company. Join a Roblox Group to meet new people. Without the help of the Roblox community, how are you expecting to stay alive during a zombie attack?
Giant Survival
Slay as many giants as you can with friends or randoms online!
Each giant has its own powers and features that make them unique.
You’ll need to kite them so they won’t catch you.
Attack while moving and you should be fine.
But that’s easier said than done.
So find a team, join a party, and get ready to kill some giants!
Survival: Apocalypse
Scavenge the maps for guns, build camps and fight even more zombies.
This is one of the best survival game experiences out there.
From time to time more powerful zombies will appear to try to kill you.
If you want to stay alive and survive, you’ll need to trust your teammates.
Survival Mining Tycoon
It’s Minecraft on Roblox! What’s not to love?
You must construct your own home and defend it from wave after wave of creepers.
And while it’s a kind of a copy of Minecraft, they still feel like different games.
While it’s weird to see the creepers in a non-square shape, this is still a fun game to play.
If you enjoy Minecraft, this is the game for you.
Natural Disaster Survival
Did you ever wonder if you could survive volcanic eruptions? Now you can find out!
Try to survive every natural disaster you can think of! Each map is its island with its unique disaster to face.
Our favorite disaster type? Volcanic outbursts!
This one is probably the least scary game on this list.
Note
If teammates are not responding, they might be AFK in Roblox. That’s bad for them because that means they won’t have any chance against the island. Try finding other players instead of waiting for them.
SCP Containment Breach Survival
Despite the Roblox art style being a bit cartoonish, this game manages to scare us.
Mostly, because the lore of the game is tied up to the SCP Foundation, a series of horror stories made for the internet.
Here, you’ll need to survive against supernatural monsters and contain them with the help of other players.
Together, you’ll need to Secure Capture and Protect (SCP) said creatures from themselves and the outside world.
Dead Mist 2
Here you’ll face other players trying to figure out who is the best of them all.
You’ll need to use hunting tactics to gain a competitive advantage.
While the maps don’t change a lot, there still are plenty of different strategies to employ.
Will you kill everyone on sight or will you try to make teammates betray them further down the line?
This is a perfect game to stream on YouTube!
Catching Fire: The Survival Games Prequel
Inspired by the popular series the Hunger Games, the last one alive wins.
You’ll need to scavenge for weapons and resources before other players take you out.
Just like in the movie, you could try to form alliances, just don’t expect any sort of romance from the game.
If you are having some fun with your team, you should add them as friends on Roblox.
It’s better than playing alone.
Honorable Mentions
While not the best survival games, these options are still worth at least one game.
Project Lazarus
It is similar to Call of Duty, you must survive waves of zombies and make it into the next round. Try to be the best on the leader board!
Survival of the Living VI
The last game of the long-running series. Sadly, the original modder passed away.
Those who remain
Another zombie game, however, this one just gives you three guns and three grenades to fight the undead.
Booga Booga
You and your team are cavemen on an island. You can collect resources and raid other tribes to survive.
Blacklands
This game can be played in two modes: survival mode or battle royale mode. Players must work together to kill enemies and survive the radioactive map.
