Is Adopt Me shutting down forever? This is the question on the minds of players who actively play the game daily. It can be saddening to know your favorite game is closing down, especially when you’ve worked hard to level up and build your virtual life in that experience, but sometimes they are just rumors. Here’s what you need to know about this particular one.
Is Roblox Adopt Me Shutting Down Forever in 2024?
Thankfully, no, Adopt Me is not shutting down forever – not this year and not next year. At the time of writing this article, Adopt Me has 78,500+ active players and the game consistently gets new updates. There are new minigames, new events, pets, and much more! Plus, players have invested a lot of time in the game and so, with a game like this that’s thriving, there’s no chance it’s shutting down any time soon.
The reason why these rumors of Adopt Me closing down became viral is that a fake screenshot made the rounds in the Roblox community. Many young players believed it, but don’t worry, the official Twitter has debunked the rumors and set the record straight.
Here’s the tweet from the @PlayAdoptMe Twitter account, which clarifies that Adopt Me is not going to shut down.
Jesse here! A fake screenshot is circulating on social media saying that Adopt Me will shut down.
I’m here to reassure you that is NOT true!
We love Adopt Me and we plan to keep our amazing updates coming every week for a long time to come. There’s nothing to worry about!
Adopt Me Shut Down in 2 Countries
Adopt Me had actually been disabled in two countries, The Netherlands and Belgium, because of the loot box mechanics in the game. Due to the countries’ laws related to games with loot boxes and the penalties associated with that, the Roblox experience was closed to comply with the regulations on September 13, 2022.

But soon enough (Oct 6, 2022 to be precise), players from these countries could play Adopt Me again because the devs reopened the game for them.

Unable to Login to Adopt Me
There may be moments when you won’t be able to log into the game or you may keep getting kicked out of the servers. This could happen if Roblox is facing server issues and will be resolved soon.
If it’s not the Roblox servers, then the game may have a bug/glitch or error and the devs will be working on it to get Adopt Me back up and running smoothly. Previously, players have encountered errors like being stuck on the Loading Save screen, getting the “Data Stores currently down, please rejoin later” message, and more. In such scenarios, Adopt Me support will roll out a patch that will fix the problem.
And that’s everything you need to know about the rumors related to Adopt Me shutting down. Such rumors keep resurfacing every year and whenever you wish to know the truth, head over to the official Twitter handle to know if the devs have mentioned anything about it or not.
