TNT to Earth's Core Update Timeline
The creator ships no patch notes, so this page reconstructs the game's update history from official Roblox metadata and the badge layer — every entry dated and attributed.
Current status (checked October 10, 2026)
A new update shipped October 6, 2026 — the official Games API updated timestamp moved to 2026-10-06T17:00:42Z (verified twice on October 10), and the official game page shows the 10/6/2026 update date. Unlike the September 3 and October 1 drops, this one arrived with no published contents: no changelog, no group shout, and no new badge batch — the October 1 badge layer (eight badges: six new TNTs — Sun, Cheese, Fire, Pancake, Cake, Singularity — plus Layer 8 Voidstone and Layer 9 Starcore) is still the newest badge evidence, so this page records the shipped-update fact and holds its contents as undocumented rather than inventing them. Earlier documented history: between the October 1 check and the October 3 check the live Roblox title changed to "TNT to Earth's Core! [Rebirths!]", advertising a rebirth system with no published details, and the badge feed recorded a roster revision (the September 17 check listed White TNT and Black TNT; neither appears in later feeds). Engagement at the October 10 check: 31.4M visits, 1.42M favorites, 1,486 playing, 90.9% positive votes. Where this page shows a claim from an earlier check that has since changed, both dates stay visible.

Experience created
The Roblox Games API records the universe's creation date as 2026-07-15. Within two and a half months the game passed 30 million visits.

Metadata update recorded by the August 25 snapshot
A saved API snapshot taken August 25, 2026 recorded the experience's updated timestamp as 2026-08-14T14:08:27Z, with the plain title "TNT to Earth's Core!" (no suffix).

Metadata update before the badge layer
The previous check on this site recorded August 26, 2026 as the experience's metadata update date immediately before the September badge layer appeared.
- September 3, 2026Official badges API
Badge layer added: 30 badges
The creator group attached a badge layer to the game: Welcome to TNT!, 21 Unlock badges naming the TNT ladder from Dirt TNT through Blackhole TNT, and Reach Layer 1 through Reach Layer 7 plus Reach Lava. The badges name the layers (basic stone, cobblestone, andesite, tuff, basalt, Deepslate) and call Layer 7 "the very last layer".
- October 1, 2026Official badges API
Expansion update: 8 new badges
Badges created October 1, 2026 (19:30–19:34 UTC) name six new TNTs — Sun, Cheese, Fire, Pancake, Cake, and Singularity — plus Reach Layer 8! (Voidstone) and Reach Layer 9! (Starcore), which takes the "very last layer" label from Layer 7. The Reach Lava and Reach Layer 7 badges' descriptions were also touched by this update.
- October 1–3, 2026Official games API
Title gains the [Rebirths!] suffix
At the October 3 check the live Roblox title read "TNT to Earth's Core! [Rebirths!]"; the August 25 snapshot had recorded no suffix. The game therefore now advertises a rebirth system, added in an update between those dates. The creator has published no rebirth details (cost, reset scope, multipliers), so the in-game rebirth screen is the deciding reference.
- October 3, 2026Official badges API
Status at the October 3 check
38 badges live. Official counters: Reach Lava 35,576 awards, Starcore 24,872, Sun TNT 341, Cheese TNT 25, Fire TNT 14, and Pancake, Cake, and Singularity TNT still at 0. Engagement snapshot: 30.4M visits, 1.38M favorites, 1,644 playing, and 22,294 up-votes versus 2,226 down-votes (90.9% positive).
- October 6, 2026Official games API
Metadata update shipped with no published contents
The official Games API updated timestamp moved to 2026-10-06T17:00:42Z — a shipped update, corroborated by the official game page's 10/6/2026 update date. Unlike the September 3 and October 1 drops, no badge batch, changelog, or group shout documents what changed: the October 1 badge layer remains the newest badge evidence, and the live title is still "TNT to Earth's Core! [Rebirths!]". This entry records the shipped-update fact and holds the contents as undocumented rather than inventing them.
- October 10, 2026Official games API
Current status at the latest check
Badge layer unchanged since October 1: 38 badges, newest created October 1, 2026. The updated timestamp reads 2026-10-06T17:00:42Z, verified twice on October 10, 2026. Engagement snapshot: 31.4M visits, 1.42M favorites, 1,486 playing. Every badge-derived table on this site was re-checked against the October 10 feed and none of its rows moved.
Pages re-verified after the latest checks
The October 6, 2026 metadata update triggered a re-verification pass: every badge-derived page was re-checked against the October 10 feed and none of its rows moved. The entries below record the last update that materially changed each page.
Tier list → 27 TNTs
Now carries the full post-update roster with the six new endgame names and their award counters (Sun 341 → Singularity 0).
MapMap page → 9 layers + core
Layer 7 lost its "very last layer" title to Starcore; Voidstone and Starcore rows added with official counters.
ProgressionProgression → rebirth section
The [Rebirths!] title change is documented with what is known (it exists) and what is not (cost, scope, multiplier).
What this page watches next
The places the next update will show itself first, based on how both past updates arrived.
- · The official Roblox page and Games API metadata (title, updated timestamp, description) — the title changed between October 1 and October 3 without a patch note, and the updated timestamp moved again on October 6.
- · The badges API for new Unlock TNT! and Reach Layer! badges — both past updates shipped this way and the badge feed is the game's de facto changelog.
- · The codes page sources — a working code or a redeem UI would appear there first; both dedicated tracker pages that now cover this game listed no codes as of October 10, 2026.
- · The in-game rebirth screen — the [Rebirths!] title suffix shows the system exists, but no rebirth numbers are publicly documented.
Also watched: the code-tracker pages tied to this exact game — the last verified code event there was the September 30 retraction; status lives on the codes page.
How updates are detected here (method)
Roblox exposes four official signals this page reads: the games API's updated timestamp for the universe, the badge feed's created dates (both past content drops arrived as badge batches — September 3, 2026 and October 1, 2026), the live page title, and the badge award counters, which move whenever the game does. Patch notes, a group shout, and a public changelog are all absent for this creator, so the timeline above is deliberately built only from signals that cannot be wrong: dates and strings from the official surfaces, quoted with the date they were read.
