This game guide will explain how to drop items in Roblox on the desktop, mobile, and Xbox versions.

Trade Items With Your Friends

Dropping items is a great way to trade them with other players in online games. Unfortunately, dropping items isn’t supported by all Roblox servers, so you’ll have to find one that does support it. Item-based games like Skyblock (which is like a Minecraft simulator) are often the best, as dropping items is part of the game.
