Not quite. Aurora is the upcoming server authoritative API that Roblox has teased at recent RDCs and on the creator roadmap.
From what’s been either disclosed publicly, been found through API dumps, or disclosed in release notes, here’s what we think we know about it:
-
It is slated to release sometime after summer 2025.
-
It introduces two new services,
AuroraServiceandAuroraScriptService, as well as a new script typeAuroraScript. -
It contains all features necessary to:
- Run code on the server and client simultaneously.
- Rollback and re-simulate the entire Roblox datamodel, Luau VM, and physics engine as one unit, likely in the event of mispredictions.
- Predict ahead for remotely owned physics assemblies.
The obvious intent behind all of this is to finally, finally, finally eliminate all client-side exploits, particularly physics and character exploits, that have plagued the platform for years, and to do it in a developer-friendly way.
To any concerned parties, I repeat once again that all information in this post has been disclosed publicly in one way or another.
