PixARK Players Face Final Deadline Before Legacy Official Servers Close

Survival sandbox title PixARK reaches a major operational milestone today as developer Snail Games initiates the final hours of its legacy server infrastructure. All original official servers outside of the recently deployed replacement clusters are scheduled to go offline permanently on August 24 at 02:00 UTC, corresponding to Sunday evening in Western time zones.

Players who have not yet migrated their avatars, tamed voxel creatures, and accumulated storage resources into the new server architecture must complete their transfers immediately. The server transition also marks the official wrap-up of the 'New Servers, New Beginnings' community event, which has granted bonus Celestial Palace crafting blueprints, exclusive creature tames, and starter materials.

Snail Games confirmed that the underlying game remains active and supported; today's shutdown is an infrastructure reset designed to enhance overall server stability, combat duping, and provide fresh starting environments for the community. For more survival sandbox news, visit /news.
