Voxel-Style Ark Game Kicks Off Chinese Open Beta

Snail Games' voxel-style survival MMO PikArk is now in Open Beta testing in China. The game, which is based on Studio Wildcard's Ark: Survival Evolved, appears to combine several game styles. The most prominent are Ark and Minecraft although a video from 2P highlights a scenario borrowed from Playerunknown's Battleground.

While they haven't said when yet, Snail Games has confirmed that PikArk will be making its way to the West. So, if blocky survival games are your thing -- and if you dig dinosaurs, 'cause those are still there -- then this might be one to keep an eye on.
