PixARK was first announced over a year ago and no details have been spilled in the meantime. Today Nintendo broke the silence with the PixArk eShop listing. The big N lists the game for a release on May 31st.

PixArk is a cutified version of the more intense counterpart Ark. In PixArk players will come together on a tropical island filled with wonder and… dinosaurs. You will have to gather resources, grow food and build camp in order to seek protection against the giants. Players can also tame these animals and use them to their advantage.

Each map and quest is procedurally generated, so you never know what you will stumble upon in this vast open world game. PixARK also features a creative mode that invites the player to focus on the building part of the game. This mode lets players unleash their creativity with almost no limits, you can even build together with your friends via online multiplayer. Keep in mind that a Nintendo Switch Online Subscription may be required to play with your friends online.

PixARK will be available on Nintendo Switch on May 31st on the Nintendo eShop for $39.99, a physical version of the game will also be released and the PixARK pre-orders are now open as well. PixARK will also available on Playstation 4 and Xbox One – the ladder is currently on sale for only $34 on Amazon.
