After more than a decade since its explosive debut, Pixel Gun 3D is set to receive a much-anticipated sequel. GDEV’s Studio Cubic Games has announced that Pixel Gun 2 will launch on iOS, Android, and Steam in early 2026, bringing back the chaos in a refined form with a host of new mechanics to explore.
Designed for seamless cross-platform play, Pixel Gun 2 reimagines the voxel-based shooter with enhanced visuals, improved controls, and faster, smoother matchmaking. The game retains the chaotic charm that made the original a cult favorite, while introducing a more refined experience. From skill-driven loadouts to upgraded shooting mechanics, the focus is on delivering more responsive gameplay and a better-balanced experience. Players will have the opportunity to experiment with min-maxing gear and combining weapons, fostering creativity and chaos in every firefight.
The launch version of Pixel Gun 2 will include a mix of iconic maps from Pixel Gun 3D alongside brand-new arenas. A revamped free-to-play economy emphasizes skill over spending, and upgraded anti-cheat systems ensure fair play. With one unified account, players can seamlessly switch between mobile and PC without losing progress.
Looking ahead, the developers have planned additional modes for post-release seasons and ongoing content updates to keep the game fresh. Meanwhile, Pixel Gun 3D will continue to receive regular updates, allowing fans to enjoy both games side by side.
This announcement coincides with Pixel Gun 3D celebrating 12 years of blocky carnage. With over 300 million installs, three million monthly users, and more than $230 million in lifetime revenue, it stands as one of the most successful mobile shooters to date. Pixel Gun 2 aims to build upon this legacy, attracting both long-time fans and a new generation of players eager for voxel-based action.
