PCGamesN Friday, September 29, 2023 12:49 PM  September 22, 20239 We checked that the best Roblox music codes were valid. What are the latest 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 favorite 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 August 2023.

Moa, the creator of Hatoful Boyfriend, has stated on Twitter that she has not received a single payment from Epic Games since her game appeared on the platform two years ago. She explains that Mediatonic used to own distribution rights for Hatoful Boyfriend, which would give her royalty fees. However, since Epic Games bought Mediatonic after Fall Guys's success, she has not gotten any payments from the game's sales. Epic Games has responded and stated that it is looking into it.
You can read Moa's full statement below:
Though Moa has tried to contact Epic Games's accounting to try and sort this out, she has not been able to get a response until Epic Games reached out to her on Twitter. In a follow-up Tweet, she explains that this isn't a matter of life or death. She can get by without the royalties from Hatoful Boyfriend. However, she wanted to ask what was going on since Epic Games was the one to suddenly remove the game from the PlayStation Store and mobile e-shops.
Hatoful Boyfriend is a doujin otome visual novel that came out in 2011. Its biggest draw is that all of the characters you can romance are sentient birds, who are now the apex lifeforms on the planet. It generally received positive reviews and was popular due to word-of-mouth marketing. The idea of a dating sim, but the romance options are all giant talking birds (that look like real birds), was novel at the time.
Hatoful Boyfriend is available for the PS4, Windows PC, OS X, and mobile devices. You can actually get the game via Steam, as well.

The first one has you imitate Detective Pikachu's expressions and motions. The second one lets you make videos while wearing Detective Pikachu's signature hat. [Thanks, Famitsu!]
The official Pokemon TikTok channel has posted a video showing how you can use the filter. In the video, a woman dances when a detective hat and Detective Pikachu suddenly appear over her head. There are also rosy spots on her cheeks as a result of this filter. The demonstration is simple. But considering TikTok's past dalliances with organic marketing through absurdist humor, there's a chance that some users can elevate the Detective Pikachu Returns filter to something more than what it is.
You can watch the full Pokemon TikTok video below:
There will also be a commemorative event for Detective Pikachu Returns in Pokemon Cafe ReMix. The event will run from October 6 to October 27, 2023. You'll be able to make lots of coffee and get Detective Pikachu's hat as a reward.
Detective Pikachu Returns will be the sequel to the game version of Detective Pikachu, which originally came out in 2018 for the Nintendo 3DS. As the name suggests, the game focuses on solving various crimes in the Pokemon world with a talking Pikachu as your partner. You can also enlist the help of other Pokemon, such as Growlithe, to case out the scene.
Detective Pikachu Returns will come out on the Nintendo Switch on October 6, 2023.

The official account for Yoshitaka Tamaki announced that the artist has died on July 13, 2023, due to lung cancer. He was 55 years old at the time of death. Tamaki previously worked as an illustrator, character designer, and scenario writer for games such as Shining Force, Landstalker, and Alundra.
Because Tamaki wanted to work until the very end, he had been undergoing treatment for cancer. Though the tweet states that he passed in July 2023, the family only made the news public now. He had a private funeral that only his family members and close friends attended, and the tweet states that they hope people will never forget the works he poured his lifeblood into.
You can read the full Twitter post below:
Though the new Shining games enlist Tony Taka as the artist and character designer, Yoshitaka Tamaki was the one who helped to write Shining Force and design its characters. Shining Force follows the story of Max, who has to defeat Kane by resurrecting the Dark Dragon. It uses turn-based combat with RPG-like exploration elements in between. At the time of launch, Shining Force topped Famitsu sales charts and received positive reviews.
Yoshitaka Tamaki died at 55 as a result of lung cancer. His past works and art are still available on his Twitter account.

HoYoVerse is collaborating with a number of restaurants worldwide to promote Honkai: Star Rail. News of this event first came out during the Version 1.4 special program that aired on September 29, 2023. You can check the official website for all the countries and restaurants that will have a collaborative menu and merchandise.
While there are some discrepancies here and there depending on the country or restaurant, they will all mostly start from October 11, 2023, and end sometime in mid-November 2023. In Japan, Wendy's will have the Honkai: Star Rail menu. You'll be able to get "designer french fries" for a limited time, as well as receive goods like an acrylic stand or a Gourmet Sailing Series Badge. The acrylic stand will use the visual of Dan Heng and March enjoying some fast food together.
There will also be themed days. If you go to the restaurants during this period, you can purchase a set item to get extra collaboration merchandise. There will also be in-game items that you can get: a Chef Pom-Pom avatar, Conductor's Treat phone wallpaper, and Pom-Pom's Fried Fowl recipe. All players will likely have access to these rewards, as the website does not say they're limited to customers who visit the stores.
Honkai: Star Rail is available on mobile devices and PC. Version 1.4 and the PS5 version of Star Rail will come out on October 11, 2023, which is when the collaboration menus will start in various restaurants. So far, there is no information on what restaurants HoYoVerse will work with in North America for Honkai: Star Rail.

Nijisanji VTuber Mika Melatika released a statement through her social media account sharing that she will be taking a temporary hiatus through the month of October 2023. While she might stream, or sporadically appear in some collabs, the liver will not be making a stable schedule to focus on her health and other personal matters.
While Mika's streams will be sporadical and unprepared, the liver also shared that she will be communicating through her social media to keep fans updated. Mika described her possible upcoming streams as "guerrilla streams" and said that she will be playing games she's interested in, or catching up with people when possible.
You can read the official post by Mika Melatika communicating her hiatus here:
Mika Melatika is a Nijisanji VTuber that debuted in late July 2021 as part of the sixth wave of Nijisanji ID VTubers (also known as "6WD"). 6WD was also formed by Xia Ekavira and Hyona Elatiora, but the latter graduated back on August 20, 2023.
She would later become a part of the main Japanese branch of Nijisanji after Anycolor gor rid of Nijisanji Indonesia and merged them together in April 2022. Ever since, several members of Nijisanji ID have graduated, including Taka Radjiman, ZEA Cornelia, Siska Leontyne, and Amicia Michella.

In this line of work, there is the immense pressure to make everything you consume, everything you touch or experience or enjoy, into content. Bills need to be paid, medical emergencies need to be covered, and maybe you want to splurge on some take-out. Writing is hard work, and it rarely ever pays. It's why you'll see a thousand different "How to's" or the long list of guides trotted out day after day, because we have to make end's meet. As I'm writing this opening, I'm aware of how ironic this is. I'm writing about a game I enjoy and making content out of it. I'm writing about how Palia is the game I've grown to love in my downtime, where I'm able to live the fantasy of home ownership and find some peace of mind fishing and collecting oysters on the shores of Bahari. I'm monetizing my relaxation. But right now, it feels different. Mostly because I want to write this. I've grown to love everything Palia has afforded me, and that's peace of mind.
Palia is a MMORPG developed by Singularity 6. It is made up of a team of former Activision Blizzard and Riot developers that came together to make something out of their shared experiences in game development. No, it isn't a grandiose MMO with a plethora of zones or races or complex classes or a dense MOBA featuring a color cast of characters. Palia is simple in it's design, at least on the surface. You're not min-maxing your stats or racing to the end game to participate in a raid. You are a stranger transported to a fantasy world where home ownership is possible and community building is key. There is no competition. This is no rat race, "World Firsts," or any of that. Palia is probably the least competitive game I've ever played, and I love that.
Since the open beta for Palia began in August 2023 I've logged in at least once every day. I tend to my small plot of land, watering my crops and harvesting bushels of corn. I use that to make food that I sell to purchase ingredients like butter and spices from the local grocer, a character who happens to be a bipedal cat that has an eyepatch and runs an underground gambling ring. When I'm not farming, I head to Bahari, a secondary region in Palia that is covered in pine trees and crags of rock that yield iron, which is a valuable material for upgrading my tools. These being a hoe, watering can, pick axe, a regular axe, a fishing rod, and bug catching equipment. It's all stock and standard for a game solely focused on farming. The game is effectively Story of Seasons on a larger scale, without the fear of your crops wilting if you don't water them on time.
This is the freedom Palia affords. You don't need to log in every day, even if I do just because I like the atmosphere, and you can play the game at your leisure. Even if you don't tend to your crops for days, they'll never wilt. They'll just be waiting for a water so they can grow and produce carrots, onions, cotton, and some other choice vegetables. There are trees too, which take much longer to grow and are unlocked as you level up your farming. Palia does have a leveling up system, but it's focused around your general skill. So the more you cook and forage, the more those skills level up. This unlocks recipes, ways to upgrade equipment (which isn't necessary to enjoy the game, but adds some nice quality of life features), and more crops to plant. It's a nice system of progression and allows you to focus on what you want to do.
I enjoy cooking. It's probably one of my favorite things to do in a game, especially a life sim, outside of fishing. Palia makes cooking into a series of mini-games. Sometimes I need to cut carrots in a specific rhythm, or maybe I need to hold down my mouse button to make compound butter to add to my luxurious looking steak dinners. These systems are more involved than any other farming sim I've played, and feels closer to the cooking minigames in Like a Dragon: Ishin than anything else. While making dishes can require multiple pieces of equipment, friends can also pop over to your house and assist in your endeavors, which rewards them with a slice of whatever it is you're whipping up. It's this collaborative element in Palia that has more or less fostered a community that is all about working together.
Mining copper and iron deposits together grants everyone the same amount of rewards, standing next to someone while they're fishing grants the both of you a bonus to finding rare fish, and to obtain the most valuable materials in the game players need to work together to chop down special trees or mine special ore. Everything about Palia is about community — from honing your skills, obtaining items to craft new furniture, to even interacting with NPCs.
Your role in the story is that of an outsider. Someone who has mysteriously come to the magical world of Palia to now live in the sleepy little community and do whatever it is you'd like to do with the plot of land you're given. You can choose to be a complete recluse or familiarize yourself with the denizens of the town, which can open up relationship paths for specific characters. Naturally, you'll need to fulfill requests and complete questlines to advance these relationships, but doing so opens up more dialogue and even allows you to purchase new items. It never feels tedious, and that's because you can do this on your own time. You have a week's worth of time to fulfill villager requests, and these are always pretty simple. Sometimes a villager wants a stone brick or a carrot. Things you can make or farm after completing the tutorial. There are the occasional requests that are a bit more complicated, but you can just wait until the week resets and fulfill a new request without it damaging your relationship with the NPC you're trying to court or build affinity with.
Also, housing is an absolute dream. You start off with one small room, which you can sort of partition into different parts if you're clever with furniture placement. But this is by far one of the best housing systems I've ever seen in a game, mostly because of the sheer level of customization you can achieve with your furniture. Outside of being able to dye items, you can also place bottles on shelves, show off items you've labored over in the kitchen, and display rare insects and fish you've caught. You can do anything and place anything on just about any surface. Unlocking furniture does require materials if you don't purchase them at the local furniture store for gold, but there is an incentive to craft. When you create a new piece of furniture, you immediately unlock another of your choosing. It's a bit hard to describe in full, but I really enjoyed decorating my space and making it my own. I even have reservations about making it any bigger, as this cozy little room reminds me very much of my old apartment — cluttered yet somehow organized, and feeling very much like me.
What I'm trying to say is that Palia is good. Palia is one the best games I've played in awhile. It isn't "Game of the Year" material in scope or particularly ambitious, but it's fun. It's a game I've enjoyed for weeks, and almost months at this point. It lets me turn my brain off and stand next to some stranger while I try to fish up a carp and make fish tacos out of. It's a game that doesn't require commitments, it doesn't force me to log in and perform a series of daily tasks to keep me engaged, because it's engaging enough on it's own. It's everything I want out of a game, and everything and more that I've ever wanted from a farming sim. Even now as I'm glancing at the clock (it's 9:37 PM as I'm writing this) I'm thinking about logging in, watering my rows of corn and tomatoes, before I settle into bed because for the first time in a long time I feel content playing a video game.
Palia is available in open beta for PCs. It will release for the Nintendo Switch sometime in the future.

Try to imagine what an Avengers-type film would be, but with Ubisoft franchises. It's a very strange way to describe xDefiant, as I didn't know what it was until booting it up. But this online first-person arena shooter has factions from five different Ubisoft franchises competing with and against each other. Sounds kind of silly, right? Well, after playing it for a couple hours during the short public test sessions, I can say that xDefiant looks like a promising start to a fun free-to-play experience. I'll be honest upfront and say this isn't the typical game I play. I've never really tried an arena shooter, although I do enjoy first-person shooters. In my first few matches, I really felt disoriented and confused, but it takes a bit of practice to learn what the game is all about.
