Roblox Islands is back again with another update, and this time they will be bringing factories to the game! This should really enhance your ability to automate and generate a whole lot more resources for your island. One of the big additions will be the ability to extract oil from the ground. This oil will likely be used for fuel, and you’ll be able to refine and barrel it!
The Roblox Islands Factory update released on August 15th at 1:30pm PST (update was delayed by an hour and a half – it should have released by now, but there must be some issue!). You will be able to give things a try in the game as soon as it has been updated!

Leaks and Previous Details
We don’t have the official details on what will be added in the factory update, but we do have some teasers and leaks. There’s at the very least going to be a pumpjack added, which is used to pump oil out of a well. This was shared on the official Roblox Islands Twitter account.
There have been some leaks as well through the LeakGang Twitter. They posted images of a Oil Refinery, Oil Barreler, and a Pipe Junction. All of these will likely be apart of the whole oil factory portion of this update.
The more interesting leaks are the Tree Shaker and Sapling Planter. Based on the names and looks of those, it appears you will be able to automate the planting of trees, and shake fruit trees to harvest the automatically! We unfortunately don’t know a lot more information about this update yet, but we’ll list everything in this post as soon as it has been released.
That’s everything we know about the Roblox Islands Factory update. Be sure to check out the Islands section of our website for more guides on the game and this patch!
