Roblox music codes April 2022 – the best song IDs

Roblox music codes April 2022 – the best song IDs

Looking for Roblox music codes? There are thousands of popular songs available to listen to in Roblox, simply by entering music ID codes into your boombox or the radio. Using song IDs, you can play your favourite TikTok songs in games with your friends.

So how do you play music in Roblox? The method varies depending on which game you want to blast your tunes in. Some games allow you free access to the boombox - simply equip and press it to bring up a text box in which you can enter a song ID code. Catalog Heaven is a great place to test the Roblox music codes you find, as it allows you to equip any boombox in the shop and try it out.

In most games, however, you'll need to use the radio to play music. This is usually part of a paid Game Pass - the price of a Game Pass is set by each game developer individually. Once you have access to the radio, you can use it in the same way as the boombox - simply enter the song ID code and press play. Occasionally, tracks are taken down by Roblox, so if a code stops working, you'll have to look for a replacement. Here are the best radio music codes in Roblox that work in April 2022:

Oculus Quest 2 is still top, but Valve Index gains ground

Posted: 05 Apr 2022 08:15 AM PDT

Oculus Quest 2 is still top, but Valve Index gains ground

The Oculus Quest 2 is still one of the most popular headsets on the market, but more Steam users opted for a Valve Index last month over Meta's best VR headset. According to the latest Steam Hardware Survey, the percentage of Quest 2 users on gaming PC only increased by 0.27%, while uptake of Valve's virtual reality gear jumped by 0.66%.

Normally, the Oculus Quest 2 gains more new users than any other VR headset, with the only exception being back in September 2021 thanks to halted sales in Australia (via UploadVR). This time, the Quest 2's second-place uptake ranking hasn't got a mitigating circumstance, but it does follow a controversial decision to re-brand the device as the Meta Quest 2.

The third most popular VR headset, the Oculus Rift S, saw a 0.54% decline in users this month, which suggests a movement towards newer devices. Of course, part of that figure could comprise of PC gamers that are no longer interested in virtual reality, but some may have jumped ship to either the Quest 2 or the Valve Index. Providing that theory has merit, we might see more former Rift S invest in an Index, rather than a Meta device.

Apex Legends ranked system: Season 12 rank split date, maps, and more

Apex Legends ranked system: Season 12 rank split date, maps, and more

Want to learn more about ranked play in Apex Legends? If you want to take your battle royale game skills to the next level, fighting against unranked players isn't going to cut it. First off, you need to earn a rank by playing several ranked matches until you establish your skill level. Once you start to find it difficult to earn points every game, you can use ranked matches to learn how to become a better player.

Apex Legends features two types of ranked play: Ranked Arenas and Ranked Battle Royale, with the points you earn being separate for each and if you reach the highest rank in Ranked Battle Royale, this won't have any impact on your Ranked Arena status. Season 12 isn't going to change the Apex Legends Ranked System, but there are plenty of additions that should have an impact at the highest levels of play.

To go beyond Bronze, the lowest ranked tier, you must reach a ranked points (RP) threshold first. While one streamer managed to go from the bottom to top rank in a single session, this process is going to take most people weeks, if not months to slowly climb the ranked ladder. Here's everything you need to know about the ranked system in Apex Legends, including the ranked tiers, penalties, and rewards on offer.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt system requirements

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt system requirements

If you're looking to sink your teeth into the next best battle royale game, then we'd suggest checking out the Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt system requirements ahead of its release later this month. However, you may need to conduct a few small upgrades to your gaming PC in order to partake in the bloody nighttime clan-on-clan action.

If your graphics card leans towards the minimum specs of the Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt system requirements, then AMD FSR support should prove a wonderful boon and help boost fps to higher levels versus running the game at your native resolution. Unfortunately, there's no sign of Nvidia DLSS support for those with GeForce RTX GPUs.

While the majority of the game's required specs should be easy enough for most systems to accommodate, developer Sharkmob recommends that you play Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt on the best SSD for gaming that you can afford. Arming yourself with a solid state drive should not only improve the game's load times, but will likely assist in more speedily streaming Bloodhunt's assets as you traverse its expansive map.

How to place Fortnite weapon schematics in Synapse Station

How to place Fortnite weapon schematics in Synapse Station

Want to know how to place Weapons Schematics in Synapse Station? The popular battle royale game has seen an all-out war between the Seven and the Imagined Order in previous weeks. In an effort to fight back against the invading IO forces, players can complete Resistance challenges, which in the past included recovering missing Fortnite battle bus plans and teaching Peely how to drive.

As for this week's Resistance challenges, placing the Fortnite weapon schematics in Synapse Station is the last of the tasks you need to complete. Before that, you need to destroy road barriers with any vehicle with a Cow Catcher attached or a battle bus, hit different targets with a sniper rifle, then destroy structures above a Fortnite data receiver and collect any data that drops.

To complete this challenge, once you activate the uplink, you need to activate your disguise kit before heading to specific spots in Synapse Station to place the weapon schematics and complete the challenge. Below, you'll find all of the schematics locations and details on how to activate the disguise kit.

Fortnite Data Receiver: how to destroy structures, collect data

Trying to collect the information from Fortnite data receivers? Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 has launched a war between the Imagined Order (IO) and The Seven. The new Fortnite map highlights the territories owned by each faction, including which landmarks are currently serving as battlegrounds. Don't be surprised if your favourite landmark ends up becoming a warzone over the next few weeks.

The Fortnite battle bus plans have come to fruition, and this week's Resistance challenges task you to drive these newly upgraded buses into road barriers to destroy them, and place the Fortnite weapon schematics in Synapse Station. The challenge we're focusing on requires you to destroy structures above a Fortnite data receiver before collecting its data. You only need to collect the information from two data receivers to complete the challenge.

Don't forget, in order to take on this challenge you need to finish the rest of the Resistance challenges beforehand. If you're looking to level up your battle pass, we also have a Fortnite Omni Chip locations guide which is updated each week - collect all the Omni Chips to unlock the Omni Sword harvesting tool. Here's what you need to collect the information from data receivers in Fortnite.

Teardown release date – anti-Minecraft indie game is out soon

Teardown release date – anti-Minecraft indie game is out soon

The "physics destruction simulator" Teardown release date is confirmed, and the indie game is leaving Steam Early Access later this month. The voxel-based sim is basically the anti-Minecraft, where the goal is destruction rather than creation, and Teardown 1.0 is coming very soon - with no price increase, it seems.

Developer Tuxedo Labs confirms that Teardown - the part-puzzle adventure game, all-destruction sim - is leaving Early Access but keeping its price of $19.99 / £18.49. The complete Teardown single-player campaign actually launched back in December, so it's not surprising that the final release is landing right on its heels.

Teardown is actually a heist game, with the goal of reaching a nefarious objective through creative destruction. Of course, there's also a full sandbox mode where players can smash up entire levels in a wide variety of satisfying ways. The final version comes with "extensive mod support and Steam Workshop integration", which already boasts over 2,000 user-created items - featuring everything from Minecraft pickaxes to black hole launchers and maps based on Five Night's At Freddy's.

First discrete Intel GPU falls flat against Nvidia GTX 1650

First discrete Intel GPU falls flat against Nvidia GTX 1650

The first discrete Intel GPU has arrived on the scene, but early tests suggest it falls flat against Nvidia's GeForce GTX 1650. The YouTube channel Benchmark Lab recently tested the Intel Arc Alchemist A370M chip across ten games, and it failed to keep up with the green team's 2019 mobile offering.

According to Benchmark Lab's data, the new Intel GPU pumps out significantly less frames than the GTX 1650. Comparatively, there's a performance gap of around 15-20% in games like The Witcher 3, Microsoft Flight Simulator, and Red Dead Redemption 2 . Of course, failing to boost fps is only part of the problem, as release notes for the mobile chip warn of glitching and crashing when running Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Forza Horizon 5, and various other big releases.

The first Arc Alchemist Intel GPU makes its debut nestled within the new Samsung Galaxy Book 2 Pro, which adds insult to injury. In theory, an Intel Core i7-12700H Alder Lake should give it an advantage against a GTX 1650 paired with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H. Yet, it seems like even one of the best gaming CPUs can't carry the A370M to Nvidia's level.

The best Terraria wings

The best Terraria wings

What are the best Terraria wings? Whether you're new to the popular indie game or a Terraria veteran, you're going to need these nifty accessories to take down some of the more difficult Terraria bosses.

Terraria wings are only available in hardmode (with one exception) and can be earned from quests, but they're more commonly crafted using feathers and other precious items. Some require more resources than others, but all will need a mythril or orichalcum anvil to craft. If you're creating lunar wings, you'll need to use the ancient manipulator. There's plenty to think about when looking for the best Terraria wings: how high you want to go, flight duration, speed, and of course their physical appearance (it matters, okay?).

The best starting wings in Terraria are demon wings and angel wings, which require 20 souls of flight, and then either 25 souls of night, or souls of light, depending on which version you're making. If you're ready to spread your wings and look for something better, we've included our top picks along with what you'll need.

League of Legends patch 12.7 notes – Arcana skins, Zeri nerf

League of Legends patch 12.7 notes – Arcana skins, Zeri nerf

League of Legends patch 12.7 notes are starting to make their way onto the PBE, folks. While LoL patch 12.6 has only just been released, Riot Games is wasting no time getting to work on what's next for the MOBA game.

The 12.6 update has plenty to keep you occupied while Riot works on the next patch. The fashion-conscious among us have some new LoL Anima Squad skins to check out, which may be good news if you're a fan of Vayne, Miss Fortune, or Jinx. Rengar has also got a pretty hefty rework, while Hecarim has got some much-needed nerfs to rein them in a tad.

While it's early days for patch 12.7, we've got a wee glimpse of what's coming our way. Riot has revealed that we're getting Arcane skins for Ahri, Xayah, Rakan, Ryze, and Hecarim, which essentially gives the LoL champions a warm red glow and some new duds. As is often the case this early into a new patch cycle, there are no champion, item, or rune balance changes on the PBE to eyeball just yet, but do keep checking back on these notes each day, as a bunch will likely appear soon. We'll be sure to post everything you need to know right here.

LEGO Star Wars glitch makes a Mandalorian army

LEGO Star Wars glitch makes a Mandalorian army

A new LEGO Star Wars glitch for The Skywalker Saga - which releases today at last - gives players of the action-adventure game the chance to create an army entirely made up of The Mandalorian. That's basically how the Clone Wars got started.

The latest Star Wars game is out today and some players have already got hold of their copies, due to releases in different timezones. A few LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga DLC packs are also out now as part of the Deluxe Edition, including The Mandalorian Season 1 with Mando and Grogu - and this is the DLC with the glitch.

This LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga character glitch was spotted by user Z9_Plasmahh on Reddit and recorded below by his brother Gulgong Devil on YouTube. The Mandalorian comes with a floating Grogu at all times - but while Baby Yoda himself isn't playable, he does appear as a separate character in the menu. As the pair discovered, if you try to swap out Grogu for The Mandalorian again, the game creates a separate Grogu - so you can do it again and keep adding Mandalorians until you have a whole army of them following you around.

All Genshin Impact archaic stone locations

Looking for Genshin Impact archaic stones? These rambunctious rocks are needed as part of the 'Says He Who Seeks Stone' world quest, which is one of the new errands you can embark on in the new The Chasm area that dropped as part of the 2.6 update.

The Genshin Impact archaic stone locations are quite tricky to find, and are often located high in the cliffs around The Chasm. Only a couple are found around ground level. You'll need plenty of stamina boosting tricks to climb and glide your way to all of the various locations. Not to be confused with lumenstone ore, which is a seperate thing.

Muning is your boy for this one, and you only need three for his initial quest. Completing it unlocks a hidden exploration objective where you can repeat the requirements a couple more times, which will require you to find all nine. We've put together this quick guide to help you find your way around, along with some descriptions to help zone in on the exact spot for the archaic stones.

Next Nvidia GPU lineup will be solely fabbed by TSMC

Posted: 05 Apr 2022 04:21 AM PDT

Next Nvidia GPU lineup will be solely fabbed by TSMC

The next Nvidia GPU lineup won't use Samsung parts, according to a report by Business Korea. Instead, the green team will make the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) its sole supplier when it comes to its GeForce RTX 4000 fabrication.

The new Nvidia GPU architecture is set to use TSMC's 4nm manufacturing process – a departure from Ampere's custom 8nm nodes. While some of the best graphics cards like the upcoming GeForce RTX 3090 Ti use Samsung fabricated components, low production yields and manufacturing issues likely convinced the green team to make the switch.

Industry insiders believe TSMC will hold a monopoly over all Nvidia RTX GPU orders in 2022, and the switch marks a huge loss for Samsung as a foundry. However, things could get worse for the Korean tech giant still, as Qualcomm will reportedly also jump ship for its new 3nm nodes next year.

Steam Deck Xbox games include Fable and non-FPS Halo now

Steam Deck Xbox games include Fable and non-FPS Halo now

The Steam Deck Xbox games list expands today, Microsoft reveals, to include 11 popular Xbox-published games now Verified or Playable for Valve's system. The list sadly doesn't include the hoped-for Steam Deck Halo Infinite compatibility, but does include Fable, Gears Tactics, Minecraft Dungeons, and all of the non-FPS Halo games.

As PCGamesN reported yesterday, there are now over 2,000 Steam Deck Verified or Playable games, but there are still around 1,000 Unsupported games. Unfortunately, some of the Unsupported ones include such major Xbox games as Halo Infinite and Gears 5, mostly thanks to issues with Easy Anti-Cheat.

While it's possible for Xbox Games Pass Ultimate subscribers to stream Xbox games on Steam Deck, anyone who wants to download them on Steam Deck is out of luck in most cases. Good news, then, as Xbox Games Studios today reveals a further batch of Steam Deck compatible games - which sadly still doesn't include the latest Halo or Gears games, but does include Halo Wars, Gears Tactics, Minecraft Dungeons, and the only major Fable game on PC.

Lost Ark new classes – all unreleased and upcoming classes

Lost Ark new classes – all unreleased and upcoming classes

So you want to know about the Lost Ark new classes? Even though the hit new MMORPG has recently been released in the West, it's been out in Korea for a couple of years now. That means the Korean version of the game has more content than the version we have currently, and this includes classes.

There are several new Lost Ark classes that currently exist in the Korean version that have yet to make the jump over to the western version. These are mainly subclasses, but there's an additional class with subclasses that was never put into Lost Ark for its western launch. We also know of a brand new class (of sorts) that's coming to both versions - a female version of the berserker.

We've put together this guide that summarises everything you need to know about new Lost Ark classes. As time goes on and the rest of the Korean game content makes it way into the western version, we'll update this guide with any new classes, subclasses, or class gender options as they get announced.
