Steal An Egg Events Schedule: Rift Event End Time and Countdown
Steal An Egg has grown into one of Roblox’s most-played experiences, with about 2,400,000 people in the game right now and about 1,900,000,000 visits to its name. Whenever the developer lines up a new in-game event, this is where to find what’s running, what’s next, and the exact start times.
The Rift Event is live right now. It opened Saturday, September 5 at 11:00 AM ET and runs a single day, and it has pulled a staggering crowd — more than about 13,000,000 players marked as interested, several times the turnout of anything Steal An Egg has run before. With that underway, the next drop is already set: Light vs Darkness, scheduled for Saturday, September 12. The sections below break down each one with the exact windows in the schedule above.
Last updated September 6. We update this page as Steal An Egg’s schedule changes.

Current and upcoming events
Rifts Are Opening — the Rift Event
The Rift Event is Steal An Egg’s biggest drop yet, and it’s running now — within its first day into its window. Teased with the line “Rifts have begun to open,” it centers on strange rifts tearing open across the world: no one is sure where they lead, only that anyone who wanders inside is never seen again. The developer frames it as the start of something larger rather than a one-off addition. It opened Saturday, September 5 at 11:00 AM ET (8:00 AM PT, 3:00 PM UTC) and runs roughly 24 hours, closing the same time on Sunday, September 6, with less than a day left to go.
Interest blew past everything before it, with more than about 13,000,000 players marked as going — several times the Monster Update’s turnout and the largest crowd Steal An Egg has assembled. Exact start and end times are in the schedule above.
Light vs Darkness — the next event
Next on the calendar is Light vs Darkness, scheduled for Saturday, September 12 at 11:00 AM ET (8:00 AM PT, 3:00 PM UTC) and running about 24 hours through Sunday, September 13. The developer’s tease describes the skies beginning to change and something breaking through — one side arriving to protect the world, the other to take it — with the balance about to tip into a fight. Nothing beyond that framing has been announced yet. Interest is already enormous, with more than about 5,500,000 players marked as going well before it opens — a turnout already rivaling the game’s biggest past events.
Monsters Are Coming — the Monster Update
The weekend before the Rift Event, the Monster Update opened on Saturday, August 29 at 11:00 AM ET and ran 24 hours through August 30. Teased with “Something has awakened,” it introduced giant creatures emerging around the world and was pitched as the opening chapter of a longer story. It became one of the game’s biggest events, drawing more than five million interested players — several times the turnout of anything before it.
Admin Abuse and the new zone
A week earlier, the Admin Abuse and New Zone update ran across the weekend of August 22, opening at 11:00 AM ET on Saturday and closing 24 hours later on Sunday. It added a new zone to explore alongside admin-abuse features and a handful of smaller changes, and drew over 360,000 interested players.
The rhythm is hard to miss by now: four straight Saturdays — August 22, August 29, September 5, and September 12 — each opening at the same 11:00 AM ET hour and running a single day. That makes Saturday late morning the window to watch for Steal An Egg’s next drop. The developer has confirmed dates through Light vs Darkness, and the schedule above carries whatever comes next.
