Cant open games in new tab

Same situation occurs for me too. No matter what browser I use (firefox, google etc) and whether or not I have an adblock on, I can’t open a new tab. It seriously messes with how I use the games page because now I have to open a new tab to try and search the game up in order to preserve my place in the original tab.

I can confirm this is happening to me too and is frustrating as a player since usually what I do is play many games and I do this:
I go on Continue page and then right click and open new tab on the games I play. But annoying and like how Aeventy said no clicking on the name doesn’t add the option.

I can confirm that you cannot middle/right click on a Game to open a new tab on Firefox 88.0.1 (64-bit) installed on Windows 8.1 x64 (Build 9600)

Works amazingly.

Thank you so much! Hopefully it’ll be on the Chrome Web Store/Microsoft Edge Extensions/Opera Addons soon :smiley:

I just noticed this issue, the script works nicely!

I’ve updated my script so it works a bit better, details are in the post.

Why. Everything I open is in a new tab. Why did they remove this :weary:

Roblox please fix this if its a bug, so many people would rather have new tabs instead of just one.

The chrome extension that fixes this is now available on the chrome webstore: RoLinker - Chrome Web Store

Works great but the only issue is that if you are doing a deep dive through the discover page then the script is rendered null after 10 seconds.

Can you port this to Firefox? I don’t want to use Chrome for obvious reasons.

EDIT: Just realized there’s a Tampermonkey script.

If you press the scroll button on your mouse, it will automatically come to a new tab

No, not anymore.
Thats the whole issue.

You cant ctrl + click, right click + open in new tab OR middle click
None of those work anymore

This is a bit worrying. The simplest analogy I can think of is attempting to use Youtube without the click in new tab feature. With youtube’s recommended feed changing every refresh, you could see any number of videos you would want to click on (2, 3, 10). If Youtube had this same bug, they would loose valuable watch time potential and have angry consumers as well. I hope this is seen as important to fix right away, especially if Roblox gets more AI recommended sorts for the discovery page.

That sentence is standard boilerplate for bug report responses where it’s not 100% clear that it’s a bug rather than a feature request – I wouldn’t look too deep into it.

No wonder… I kept holding Ctrl and left clicking, it would usually open a new tab for the game…

But it randomly stopped doing that not too long ago. Well now I know why…

This seems to be fixed for me, can anyone confirm?
I use no extensions other than BTRoblox

You’re right, it’s fixed. I’m not using any extensions and it’s working fine. I guess they finally did it!

The weird thing is that I tried changing my VPN to random countries, and the setting is still there, but when I ask friends, none of them have it

It seems like this has been fixed but it’s still triggering my Popup Blocker

This issue should now be resolved! If this issue is still occurring, please create a new topic for us to look into.
