Dear Explorers:

We’ve been keeping a close eye on the conversations happening across the community. Alongside all the excitement for what’s next, we’ve also seen plenty of questions about development progress and update timing.

So, we’ve gathered the most frequently asked questions and put together this FAQ to give you a clearer picture of what’s ahead. Think of this as a chance for us to sit down and properly catch up with you.

Q1: When is the next major update coming?

This upcoming update is significantly larger in scope than previous ones, which means it’s taken a bit longer to develop. That said, based on our current progress, we’re aiming to release it within this year.

Thank you all for your patience—it truly means a lot to us.

Q2: What kind of new content can we expect?

We’re expanding on gameplay systems, introducing new creatures, adding fresh weapons, and opening up entirely new areas to explore.

On top of that, we’re experimenting with some new design ideas to make this survival adventure feel more dynamic and refreshing than ever before.

Q3: Will there be improvements to gameplay experience?

Absolutely. While developing new content, we’ve also been working on overall gameplay optimizations and adjustments.

One of these changes is aimed at addressing long-standing concerns about game difficulty—we’ll be sharing more details on that soon.

Q4: When will we get a first look at the update?

We’re currently preparing everything and want to reveal it in a more complete and polished form.

We’ll start sharing more details step by step at the right time.

(Yes… we’re about to open the folder and let you peek inside)

Q5: What’s the team’s current development focus?

Right now, the team is fully focused on building this new version so we can bring it to you as soon as possible.

Because of this, some bug fixes may occasionally take a bit longer than usual—but rest assured, we’re continuously tracking and addressing your feedback.

And before we wrap up, here’s a quick bit of good news:

The Steam Spring Sale is live, and PixARK is part of it!

  • Original Price: $9.99 (68 RMB)

  • Spring Sale Price: $4.29 (29 RMB) — 57% OFF

Thank you for your continued support of PixARK.
Your feedback helps shape the game every step of the way, and we can’t wait to hear your thoughts, ideas, and discussions in the comments.
