Guess The Person New Update: Schedule, Start Times & Next Countdown

Updated August 28, 2026 By AllThingsHow Staff 12K playing now

Guess The Person is one of Roblox’s fast-paced guessing games, where a round comes down to how quickly you can name the character on screen. It pulls a steady crowd — around about 12,000 people in the game at any given moment, on its way past about 4,500,000 visits since launch. New Update is the studio’s recurring content drop for the game: a regular refresh that brings redrawn art, new features and fixes, not a one-off event.

These updates arrive on a dependable rhythm rather than at random. A fresh one lands every ~3 days, and the studio has shipped 2 so far, so there is always a next drop on the horizon. The next one is due Saturday, August 29 at 7 AM ET — the exact time and the usual windows are on the card below.

How often the update lands

New Update follows a twice-weekly pattern. A new version goes live every ~3 days, on two fixed slots each week: Wednesday mornings and Saturday mornings, Eastern time. Wednesday’s drop lands at 7:10 AM ET and Saturday’s at 7:00 AM ET. Two recurring windows give players in different parts of the world a reliable moment to jump in for the latest changes, whatever the hour looks like where they live.

Here is how those two windows land across the major regions:

  • Wednesday, 7:10 AM ET — 4:10 AM in Los Angeles, 12:10 PM in London, 1:10 PM across Central Europe, 4:40 PM in India, 8:10 PM in Japan and 9:10 PM in eastern Australia.
  • Saturday, 7:00 AM ET — 4:00 AM in Los Angeles, 12:00 PM in London, 1:00 PM across Central Europe, 4:30 PM in India, 8:00 PM in Japan and 9:00 PM in eastern Australia.

What’s in the latest update

The most recent drop leans on a visual overhaul plus general polish. Expect:

  • Redrawn characters — every face rebuilt to be bolder, brighter and clearer at a glance, which counts for a lot in a game won on speed.
  • New features and gameplay improvements that widen what a round can throw at you.
  • Smoother matches from the first prompt to the last.
  • Bug fixes across the board.

Tips for catching a new update

  • Saturday’s window lands ten minutes earlier than Wednesday’s — 7:00 AM ET versus 7:10 AM ET.
  • Set a reminder a few minutes ahead so you are in the game the moment the newest version goes live.
  • Miss one? It is not gone — another update follows within a few days on the same rhythm.

How it fits the game’s rhythm

For a title with about 14,000 favorites and traffic in the millions, a predictable update cadence is what keeps a guessing game feeling fresh. New Update is the backbone of that schedule: rather than saving everything for occasional big events, Guess The Person keeps a steady drumbeat of smaller improvements twice a week, so the core loop rarely goes stale and returning players always have a reason to come back.
