You just sent a rival penguin flying off the icy arena — now what? Emote on them. Roblox Knockout isn’t just about surviving the shrinking ice platform; it’s about doing it with style. Here’s everything you need to know about getting and using emotes in Knockout right now.
Table of Contents
Emotes in Knockout — Roblox Reference Table
| Method | How It Works | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 🎁 Bundles | Buy from the pedestalled penguin in the lobby | Robux |
| 🎉 Admin Events | Join developer-hosted events for free emotes | Free |
| 🔄 Weekly Releases | New bundles drop every week with fresh emotes | Robux |
| ➕ Equip via Emote Button | Press Emote → click + icon → select emote | Free |
⚠️ There is no standalone emote store in the lobby — bundles are the primary way to get emotes in Knockout. Not all bundles include emotes, so always check bundle contents before spending Robux.
How to Get Emotes in Knockout
Bundles are available by interacting with the pedestalled penguin next to the Prize Wheel in the lobby. Developers release new ones every week, bringing in fresh skins, arrows, and emotes.
But here’s the key thing — some emotes are time-sensitive. Purchase them quickly because the developer may not re-release a particular bundle any time soon. Miss it and it could be gone for good.
The best part? Free emotes are absolutely a thing. During the Admin Abuse event on February 21, 2026, every player who joined received the Emperor Penguin emote for free. More admin-offered emotes could be given in the future as a gesture of appreciation. Keep an eye on developer announcements and the official Discord for the next one.
How to Equip & Use Emotes in Knockout
Press the Emote button, click the plus icon, and choose a new emote. Your selected emote appears at the top of your avatar. Simple, clean, satisfying.
Emotes are usable while you’re in the lobby or during a contest — all players, including rivals in a match, will be able to see your emote. Just don’t get so carried away that you forget to focus on the match itself!
All Emotes Released So Far
A total of four emotes have been released in Knockout so far — with the Emperor Penguin being the latest free addition. As the game grows, expect more creative and exclusive animations to drop through bundles and admin events.
