Build a Base and Steal Events Schedule: Next Update (Aug 8)
Build a Base and Steal’s big update event wrapped up July 25, pulling in over 250,000 registrations — the largest turnout of any event on the game’s schedule so far, more than double what the July 18 update drew. Attention now shifts to the next date on the studio’s schedule: another update reserved for August 8, in the same late-morning slot the last few events have used. It’s a placeholder for now — the studio has booked the date but hasn’t detailed what it will bring — though registered interest is already at about 680,000 and climbing.
The base-builder remains one of Roblox’s busier experiences. It’s holding roughly about 9,400 players in-game right now, has been visited more than about 8,500,000 times, and carries close to about 66,000 favorites. Built by the studio replayable fun games, it mixes rolling for rare pets with base building and a heavy dose of raiding — smashing rival players’ defenses to steal their pets while guarding your own.
The schedule below shows what’s coming next and what just wrapped. Last updated August 11; we update this page as the studio’s schedule changes.

Current and upcoming events
Next update event (August 8)
The nearest event on the calendar is another update set for August 8, running from 10:30 to 11:30 AM ET (7:30 to 8:30 AM PT; 3:30 to 4:30 PM BST). Like the July 25 slot before it, it’s a placeholder — the studio has reserved the time for its next update but hasn’t said what the drop will contain. Registered interest is already at about 680,000, and landing about two weeks after the July 25 update, in the same morning window, it follows a run of tighter, roughly weekly drops in mid-to-late July.
Big update event (recently ended)
The studio’s headline event of the past week, billed as a big update, ran on July 25 from 10:30 to 11:30 AM ET (7:30 to 8:30 AM PT; 3:30 to 4:30 PM BST). It drew in over 250,000 registrations, easily the largest turnout of any event on the game’s schedule to date — more than double the July 18 update’s total. As with the earlier drops, the studio flagged it as a significant update without detailing specifics beforehand.
Huge update event (recently ended)
Before that, the huge update ran July 18 from 10:30 to 11:30 AM ET, pulling in over 100,000 registrations — a big number in its own right, though it’s since been eclipsed by the July 25 turnout.
Admin abuse event (recently ended)
Further back, an admin abuse event ran July 15, live for one hour from 7:30 to 8:30 PM ET, and drew nearly 95,000 registrations. Three events in the back half of July — July 15, July 18 and July 25 — followed by the reserved August 8 slot show the gaps between drops widening from three days to a week to about two weeks.
