Creds are the event currency for the Roblox Creator Showdown 2026, spent inside The Block to unlock cosmetic Perks and three limited avatar accessories: the Showdown Bunny Ears, Showdown Traffic Cone, and Showdown Swordpack. Quests are already live across participating experiences, but the biggest payouts are locked behind the livestream on April 24, 2026.
When the event runs
The Creator Showdown 2026 runs April 20 through April 24, 2026. The livestream itself begins at 12:30 PM PT on April 24 inside The Block, and that window is when the highest-value quests unlock. Creds earned outside the stream carry over, so the pre-event days are worth using for the one-and-done tasks.
All Cred-earning quests
Creds only register in public servers. If you load into a private or reserved server for any of the game-specific quests, the reward will not credit to your account.

How to complete each game quest
All five game quests are launched from the Game Portal inside The Block. Pick them up there so the quest state is active before you teleport, otherwise progress won't track.
Chained: Partner with another player and climb to 350 meters, where the grassy plateau and Shop sit. The teleport from The Block drops you into the correct event lobby.
Gunfight Arena: Do not join a round already in progress. Wait in spawn until the next round starts fresh, then stay until it ends. The quest rewards a full round played from the opening.
Knockout: You need 5 match wins. Queuing with friends in public servers is the fastest route, since only public-server wins count toward the Cred total and badge.
Dueling Grounds: Play 3 Casual mode matches. Losses still count, so you only need to finish the matches, not win them.
Racket Rivals: In the lobby, interact with the Creator Showdown event area to start the quest. Balloons spawn randomly mid-match; you need 30 total pops across any number of matches. Popping 15 also drops 500 Yen in-game.
Livestream-only quests worth prioritizing
If you only show up on April 24, your ceiling is still high. Vote Participation alone caps at 4,400 Creds across 8 polls, and Watch the Livestream has no earning cap, so simply staying in The Block during the broadcast stacks Creds steadily.
Join the Groove requires 3+ people dancing in sync, and Emote With Others needs 5+ players using the same reaction for a full minute. Both are social checks, so stick near crowds in The Block rather than empty zones.
Perk prices and what you can buy
Creds are spent through the in-game phone in The Block. Open it, tap Perks, then List of Perks, and select what you want. Redeemed avatar items appear in your Roblox inventory shortly after.
| Perk | Effect | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Nametag Glow-up | Unique nametag styling | 200 |
| Aura Farming | Avatar effect, stacks 3x | 400 |
| Massive Appeal | Size boost for 5 min, stacks 2x | 400 |
| Hoofing It | Horse mount for 5 min | 400 |
| Wheelie Good Time | Sportsbike for 5 min | 400 |
| Anti-Gravity Boots | Higher jump 5 min, stacks 3x | 400 |
| Bubble Color (6 shades) | Chat bubble recolor | 400 each |
| Take the Spotlight | Hijack the stage spotlight | 900 |
| Light Up The Stage | Flame jets on jump, 10 jumps | 900 |
| Just "Hanging" Out | Swingable vines for 5 min | 900 |
| Face-Off | Beach balls with your face, 1 min | 1,600 |
| Showdown Bunny Ears | Permanent avatar accessory | 4,600 |
| Showdown Traffic Cone | Permanent avatar accessory | 4,800 |
| Showdown Swordpack | Permanent avatar accessory | 5,000 |
The fastest route to all three accessories
Grabbing all three avatar items costs 14,400 Creds. That's achievable without marathoning, but it requires attending the livestream, because pre-event quests alone cap out well below the Swordpack price.
Pre-event baseline from the one-time quests (RSVP, five game quests, Music on Roblox group, and the 6,000-Cred milestone bonus): roughly 2,600 Creds before you even log in on April 24. Stacking voting, watching, dancing, emoting, and inviting friends during the broadcast easily pushes totals past 12,000 Creds.
Verify a redemption worked by checking your Roblox inventory for the accessory after purchase. The phone menu will also remove the Perk from the available list once you've hit its per-account limit.
Why Creds might not be crediting
Private servers don't award Creds. The Knockout and Dueling Grounds quests in particular will look like they completed without paying out if you queued into a friends-only or VIP server. Rejoin via the Game Portal in The Block to force a public server.
Social quests also have minimum player thresholds. Emote With Others needs 5+ participants matching the same reaction, and Join the Groove needs 3+ dancers synced for the full 5-minute window. Partial timers reset if the group breaks up.
The RSVP and past-events quests are tied to your Roblox account, so alts won't inherit Attended Past Events credit, and Invite a Friend only counts invites sent through the livestream's in-experience flow on April 24.
