One of the most frustrating bugs in Murder Mystery 2 (MM2) is opening your inventory only to find it blank, spinning, or stuck loading. Your knives, guns, and pets are still there — this is almost never a case of items being deleted — but something is preventing them from displaying. This guide covers every known fix for MM2 inventory not loading, from quick restarts to deeper troubleshooting steps.
Why MM2 inventory fails to load
The inventory system in MM2 pulls data from Roblox's DataStore servers. When that connection is slow, interrupted, or temporarily overloaded, inventory items simply do not render. Other causes include:
- Roblox platform outages or degraded performance
- A corrupted local Roblox cache
- A slow or unstable internet connection timing out the DataStore request
- The MM2 servers themselves experiencing high load
- A recent game update that introduced a temporary bug
Understanding the cause helps you pick the right fix.
Fix 1 — Rejoin the server
The simplest and most successful fix in the majority of cases. Leave the current MM2 server and rejoin (either the same server or a different one). This forces a fresh DataStore request and usually loads the inventory correctly on the second attempt.
Fix 2 — Check Roblox server status
Before spending time troubleshooting locally, check whether Roblox itself is having issues.
Visit status.roblox.com to see the current platform status. If DataStore or game services are marked as degraded or experiencing an incident, your inventory will not load until Roblox resolves the issue on their end — no amount of local fixes will help.
Fix 3 — Clear your Roblox cache
A stale or corrupted cache can cause persistent loading failures.
| Platform | How to clear cache |
|---|---|
| Windows | %localappdata%\Roblox\logs — delete contents; also clear via Roblox Settings |
| Mac | ~/Library/Caches/com.roblox.RobloxPlayer — delete folder |
| iOS | Settings → General → iPhone Storage → Roblox → Offload App |
| Android | Settings → Apps → Roblox → Storage → Clear Cache |
After clearing the cache, relaunch Roblox and try joining MM2 again.
Fix 4 — Try a different server or game mode
Some MM2 server instances can get stuck in a bad state where DataStore calls consistently fail. Rather than rejoining the same server, use the server browser to find a different one — ideally one with fewer players and a lower ping to your region.
Fix 5 — Restart your router
If multiple restarts and cache clears have not fixed the inventory, try restarting your home router. DNS caching issues at the network level can intermittently block Roblox DataStore requests, and a router restart clears this.
Fix 6 — Disable extensions and VPNs (PC)
Browser extensions that interfere with network traffic and VPNs that add routing hops can cause DataStore timeouts on PC. Disable any active VPN and try launching Roblox without browser extensions enabled.
Fix 7 — Wait and retry
Sometimes MM2 inventory not loading is a server-side issue that resolves itself within 15–30 minutes. If you have tried the above steps and nothing works, check the MM2 community Discord or subreddit to see if others are reporting the same issue. If it is widespread, waiting for Roblox or the MM2 team to resolve it is the only option.
When to contact support
If your inventory has been blank for more than 24 hours and Roblox status shows no incidents, submit a support ticket at roblox.com/support. Include your username, the game name, and a description of what you see. Mention whether you can see your inventory on the Roblox website (under your profile) but not in-game, as this helps narrow down whether it is a game-specific or account-level issue.
If you recently made a purchase using Robux and the bought item is not appearing, include the transaction ID from your purchase history.
FAQ
Are my MM2 items deleted when inventory does not load?
Almost certainly not. Inventory loading failures are almost always display or network issues, not data loss. Your items remain in your account's DataStore record.
Why does inventory load fine on PC but not mobile?
Mobile Roblox clients are more sensitive to network timeouts. The same DataStore request that loads quickly on PC may time out on a slower mobile connection. Try the network fixes in this guide.
Can a MM2 update cause inventory loading issues?
Yes. Major updates sometimes temporarily break DataStore calls until the game developers patch it. Check the MM2 official social channels for known issues after updates.
Does inventory loading failure affect trading?
Yes. If your inventory is not loading, you cannot see or offer your items in trades. Wait until the issue is resolved before attempting high-value trades.
How long do MM2 inventory outages usually last?
Most resolve within an hour. Larger Roblox platform incidents can last a few hours in rare cases. Widespread incidents affecting many games are usually patched within the same day.
