Realistic Ragdoll Engine
Realistic Ragdoll Engine: Update 2 Countdown and What’s Next
Realistic Ragdoll Engine is a solo physics sandbox on Roblox where every dummy has bones and organs that respond realistically to the exact spot and force of each hit. Built by the creator No Knees!, it has grown into one of the platform’s busier experiments, with more than about 43,000,000 total visits and about about 720,000 favorites so far. On a typical day it keeps thousands of players online at once — roughly about 6,300 these days.
The headline item on the schedule right now is Update 2, a content drop that went live on October 23 and is set to run through the early hours of October 27 ET. Right behind it is an event the developer has titled Admin Abuse, opening October 25. Both have drawn unusually strong interest for a sandbox this size, each with many thousands of players signed up to be notified. This page lays out what each event adds and exactly when it runs; we update it as the schedule changes.

Current and upcoming events
Update 2 (live now)
Update 2 is the current live event and is scheduled to wrap in the early hours of October 27, closing at 2:55 AM ET. It opened on the evening of October 23 (6:05 PM ET) and has about a few days left to run. Per the developer’s notes, it brings a batch of new weapons and tools, additional maps, and expanded settings alongside smaller additions and tweaks. Interest has been heavy — more than about 11,000 players have opted in for a notification.
Admin Abuse (upcoming)
The next event, which the developer has styled as Admin Abuse, is set to begin on October 25 at 6:00 PM ET — that is 5:00 PM CT, 4:00 PM MT, and 3:00 PM PT — and run through the night of October 31, closing at 11:31 PM ET. The draw is a giveaway: the developer says anyone who shows up for it will receive an exclusive in-game item. Like the current drop, it has already gathered a large crowd ahead of time, with more than about 36,000 players signed up.
Update 1 (ended)
The schedule’s first entry, Update 1, ran overnight from October 19 into October 20 and has since ended. It introduced new weapons along with a round of additions and fixes. It reached a far smaller audience than the drops that followed, with fewer than 200 players signing up — a sign of how quickly turnout has climbed in the days since.
Taken together, the three events point to a fast release rhythm: Update 1 on October 19, Update 2 on October 23, and Admin Abuse on October 25, each opening in the early evening ET. If that cadence holds, new drops are landing every few days rather than on a weekly schedule.
