How-To

Is the Chrome Dino Game Still Available in 2026?

Short answer: yes. As of our latest check, the dinosaur runner is still built into Google Chrome on every platform — Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, and ChromeOS. Google has never announced any plan to retire it.

Why people think it was removed

  • Managed devices hide it. Schools and workplaces can disable the game through Chrome's enterprise policies, so on a school laptop it may genuinely be gone — that's a local setting, not Google removing the game.
  • Other browsers never had it. The runner is a Chrome feature. Firefox and Safari don't include it, and Microsoft Edge ships its own surfing game instead.
  • You see it less often. Connections are more reliable than they were in 2014, so the "No Internet" page simply appears less.

Where it still lives

It remains in two places: Chrome's offline error page, and the internal address chrome://dino. Step-by-step instructions are in how to open Chrome dino — or skip all of that and play our version online in any browser, no Chrome required.

The game has been continuously available since September 2014 — see the full timeline in our dino game history.
