Hey, Explorers or would-be Explorers!



We're glad to announce PixARK is celebrating our 1-year anniversary since full release. To celebrate, PixARK will be FREE to play for everybody this weekend. In addition, PixARK is 60% off, so if you like what you see, make sure to pick it up too. You can download the game here.

For those who aren't super familiar with PixARK, or maybe you've purchased the game and haven't started it up yet: PixARK is an open-world survival game in voxel form based on ARK: Survival Evolved. Players start off in mostly safe areas (green usually means safe). Start punching trees, picking up grass, and create your first weapons, armor, and player-home. Feed creatures to tame them, ride them across the sky, and claim your territory!
