Roblox is breathing new life into one of its most cherished traditions. The Egg Hunt, a beloved community event that first launched back in 2008, is making a comeback—reimagined and rebranded as *The Hatch*, as officially confirmed by Team Roblox.
When Does The Hatch Start in Roblox?
Mark your calendars—the event officially begins on July 2nd, 2025, and will continue until July 12th, 2025. That gives players a solid ten days to dive into the action and collect as many items as possible. While details remain sparse, fans are already buzzing with theories about what this revamped version might include.
Promotional artwork for *The Hatch* hints at multiple biomes, drawing comparisons to the 2017 Egg Hunt: The Lost Eggs, which featured themed zones connected to unique egg designs. In previous iterations, players had to hunt for eggs hidden throughout the platform by solving puzzles, completing mini-games, or being in the right place at the perfect time.
A Dramatic Announcement
The announcement itself was as dramatic as the event’s return. It began with an emoji-filled post from the official Roblox account on X (formerly Twitter), sparking immediate speculation. The sequence—earth, water, fire, tornado, lightning, heart, hourglass, snowflake, lightbulb, and black circle—had fans decoding every symbol for clues.
Then, on June 11th, 2025, Roblox released a teaser video titled *The Hatch* across all major platforms—including Instagram, Threads, X, and YouTube—confirming the event’s arrival and reigniting excitement across the community.
What’s Next?
At this point, that's all we know about *The Hatch*. Whether it will follow the traditional dev hunt format remains to be seen. More updates are expected to surface soon, so stay tuned for the latest news and announcements directly from Roblox.
