Quick answer: If The Hollow marks Floor 7 complete but you do not receive the badge or related item, first rejoin the official experience, check the badge and avatar inventory separately, and review the live reward or redemption panel. Roblox community developers have acknowledged reports of The Hollow badge/reward claims failing for some players, including cases where a completed floor appears to leave the player unable to repeat it. These checks may help diagnose the issue, but there is no single guaranteed player-side fix for every account.
A completed floor and a credited reward are not always the same thing. Preserve the details of your run instead of repeatedly completing the same objective without checking whether the event has registered it. This guide focuses on safe troubleshooting and separates reported community issues from officially confirmed event details.
What players are reporting
On October 29, a player posted on the Roblox Developer Forum that badges for completed floors were not being awarded in The Hollow. The report described floors appearing as complete while the badge and item were still missing, effectively preventing another attempt. A developer replied that they would investigate and hoped to identify a fix. This is evidence of a reported issue and an acknowledged investigation—not confirmation that every Floor 7 claim is broken or that a permanent fix has already shipped.
Earlier reports also described UGC claims failing despite the player having the relevant badge. A developer response on that thread said the team believed an issue had been fixed and asked affected players to report whether it continued. Because reports can describe different symptoms or accounts, check your own badge and reward status before deciding which issue applies.

Try these checks in order
1. Rejoin the official experience once
Leave The Hollow and reopen it from its official Roblox experience page. Check the floor list and reward panel again. Rejoining is a low-risk first check, not a guaranteed repair for a server-side reward issue.
2. Check the badge and avatar item separately
Look for the relevant badge in your Roblox badges and check your avatar inventory for the item. A missing avatar item does not automatically prove that the badge was never awarded, and an on-screen completion state does not by itself prove that the reward has been credited. Record which of these is missing.
3. Reopen the event’s reward or redemption interface
If the event shows a reward or badge redemption panel, open it and inspect the exact status. Do not assume that completing the floor automatically claims every associated item. Follow only instructions visible in the official experience.
4. Capture evidence before retrying repeatedly
- Take a screenshot showing the floor marked complete.
- Capture the missing badge or item status if possible.
- Note the approximate time, device, and exact floor or reward name.
- Keep any error message or redemption text intact.
This evidence is more useful for a support report than a general message saying “my reward is broken.” Do not publish private account information in public posts.
5. Check the official discussion for an update
Review the Developer Forum thread for a developer response or a request for additional details. If the same problem persists, add a concise report to the relevant official discussion or contact Roblox Support. Avoid repeatedly replaying a floor that the event already marks as complete unless the live instructions explicitly tell you to do so.
What not to do
- Do not use third-party claim sites. Never provide your password, session cookie, or verification code to “recover” a badge or UGC item.
- Do not install scripts or unlock tools. They cannot be trusted to repair a server-side reward record and can put your account at risk.
- Do not assume the item is permanently lost. First determine whether the badge, item, or only the event display is missing.
- Do not treat an old screenshot as proof of the current fix. Event interfaces and issue status can change, so check the latest developer reply and your live account.
Is Floor 7’s puzzle itself the problem?
Third-party guides report that Floor 7 involves using a torch to light four pumpkins, retrieving a relic, and returning it while avoiding The Inspector. Roblox’s main event announcement confirms The Inspector is part of The Hollow’s monster lineup, but the announcement does not provide an official step-by-step Floor 7 walkthrough. If your floor is not marked complete, the issue may be an objective or route problem; if it is marked complete but the badge is missing, that matches the separate reward-registration symptom described in community reports.
View the community-reported Floor 7 puzzle guide. Treat its route as third-party guidance, not an official Roblox guarantee.
What Roblox has officially confirmed about The Hollow
Roblox describes The Hollow as a limited-time Halloween survival event featuring nine horror-game monsters over nine days. Its announcement names The Inspector from Scary Shawarma Kiosk and The Overseer from WARDEN among the lineup. Roblox says the live finale is planned for the morning of October 31 and eligible rewards can be collected until noon Pacific time on November 2. The announcement does not promise that every badge or UGC claim will be error-free, nor does it list a universal fix for the reported badge issue.

Frequently asked questions
Why is my Roblox The Hollow Floor 7 badge not awarding?
Some players have reported completed floors without the expected badge or item. The Developer Forum contains a report dated October 29 and a developer response saying the issue would be investigated. Your account may have a different cause, so check the badge, inventory, and event reward panel separately.
What is the first thing to try?
Rejoin the official experience once, then check the floor status, badge, and avatar inventory. This is a safe initial check, not a guaranteed fix.
Should I repeat Floor 7 if it already says complete?
Not immediately. Capture the completion state and check the reward panel first. If the event blocks another attempt, report the exact symptom through the relevant official support channel.
Can a badge be present while the UGC item is missing?
Community reports have described UGC claims failing even when a player says they own the badge. Check the item and badge separately and consult the latest official discussion for updates.
Where can I report the issue?
Use the relevant Roblox Developer Forum discussion or Roblox Support. Share the floor name, approximate time, and screenshots, but never share passwords or login codes.
