Update Countdown: the countdown before an update

The Update Countdown, or Update Timer, is an in-game countdown showing the time left until the next update. It only shows when an update is confirmed. It first appeared before Update 30: during the morning, the sun wore the head of mygame43's old avatar, the game's creator, with a timer in Hours:Minutes:Seconds format.

How to get it

Nothing to do: it shows up on its own, in game, as soon as an update is confirmed. Outside of those periods, it does not exist.

How it works

It shows the time left until the next update.
It only appears when an update is confirmed: no countdown between two announcements.
The format is Hours:Minutes:Seconds.

Its first appearance

It was first seen before Update 30. During the in-game morning, the sun displayed a head with the countdown below it.

That head is mygame43's old avatar head, the Roblox account of the owner and creator of Blox Fruits.
