How much is the Pixaplay Pass?

The price shows in the Pass window, the one that opens when you choose to join, before you pay anything. We don't print it in our guides because it may change. What won't change is the trial: a first Pass starts with 7 days free, and you're only charged when that week ends.

Does the free week give monthly Pixels?

No. The free week opens the games, early-access ones included, but the monthly bundle of Pixels starts with your first paid month. Gifted Passes don't come with monthly Pixels either. If a paid month went through and no Pixels arrived, tell support under Pixaplay Pass and they'll sort it.

Can I share my Pass with friends?

A Pass belongs to one account. In Rogue Defenders' online rooms, though, the host's Pass sets the room's difficulty tier, so friends in a Pass member's room play those tiers too. Heroes stay each player's own. Hearthfall and Influence need each player to have the Pass.

What happens when I cancel?

The Pass keeps working until the end of the month you paid for, then stops, and you won't be charged again. Part-used months aren't refunded. Forgot to cancel? Write to support right after the renewal, before playing or spending that month's Pixels, and it's usually refunded.

Do I need the Pass to play with friends?

Not for Pecking Order, which is free to play in full for up to 20, or for the free part of Rogue Defenders. Friends, parties, invites and chat are free with any Pixaplay account. The Pass matters for Hearthfall, Influence and the rest of Rogue Defenders.

Pixaplay Pass: What You Get and What Stays Free

Pixaplay Pass is the one subscription on Pixaplay. It opens every game in full, gets you into the early-access games (Hearthfall and Influence), and adds a bundle of Pixels each paid month. A first Pass starts with a free week. Pecking Order and a big chunk of Rogue Defenders stay free without it.

So, should your group get one? Maybe, maybe not, and plenty of great nights cost nothing at all. Here's what the Pass changes in each game so you can decide before paying. New to Pixaplay itself? Our explainer on what Pixaplay is covers the account and Pixels first.

What does the Pixaplay Pass give you?

Three things, across every Pixaplay game:

Every game in full. Anything a game keeps for the Pass opens up.
New games first. Games in early access are open to Pass members before anyone else. As of November 2026, that's Hearthfall and Influence.
Pixels every paid month. A bundle of Pixels, Pixaplay's shared currency, lands in your wallet each month you pay.

It's one Pass for everything. You don't subscribe game by game, and a game you start next month is covered too.

What changes in each game?

The part most people really want:

Game	Without the Pass	With the Pass
Pecking Order	Everything: all 7 modes, all worlds, up to 20 players	Nothing more to open; your monthly Pixels buy Feather packs for looks
Rogue Defenders	Warrior, Mage, Archer, Cleric; Normal and Tiers 1-2; every Crystal Clash card	Adds the Engineer and the Assassin, and Tiers 3-10
Hearthfall	Not open yet (early access)	Full early access, solo and with up to 4
Influence	Not open yet (early access)	Full early access, solo

Your Pass comes along with your Pixaplay sign-in, so it works in every browser you sign in on. If a game says you need one, signing in is always the first thing to try.

How does the Pass work in Rogue Defenders rooms?

In Rogue Defenders' online rooms, the host picks the difficulty tier. If the host has the Pass, the whole room can play Tiers 3 to 10, friends without the Pass included. Heroes stay personal: a friend without the Pass still picks from the four free heroes. The host's Pass also decides which heroes the room's bots can play.

So a group of four only needs one Pass holder to tackle the hard tiers together.

How does the free week work?

The free week is for your very first Pass. Plainly:

It lasts 7 days.
Your card is asked for at the start, and charged when the week ends unless you cancel first.
You get a reminder email a couple of days before it ends.
It opens the games, early-access ones included, but gives no monthly Pixels. Those start with your first paid month.
It's one free week per player. Had a Pass before, paid, trial or gift? The next one starts paid.

A fun way to use it: plan a co-op week with friends. Hearthfall needs everyone in the room to have the Pass, so a group can line up their free weeks and try it together.

What does the Pass cost?

The price shows in the Pass window before you pay, after "Free for 7 days" when your free week applies. We don't print it in our guides, because it may change and we'd rather not leave an old number lying around. What we can promise: you see the price before the free week starts, nothing is charged during it, and cancelling before the week ends costs nothing.

Monthly Pixels and gifted Passes

Monthly Pixels arrive each time a Pass month is paid, into the same wallet as any Pixels you buy. As of November 2026 you can spend them in Pecking Order on Feather packs, which buy fancy looks. Looks are just looks: nothing changes how a bird flies.

Gifted Passes work like paid ones in every game, with no card and nothing to cancel. A gift ends by itself, and your account page shows when. Gifts don't include monthly Pixels.

How do you cancel the Pass?

Go to Account, then Pixaplay Pass, then Manage. After that:

The Pass keeps working to the end of the month you paid for.
Then it stops, and you won't be charged again.
Part-used months aren't refunded.

If a renewal caught you by surprise, write to support right away, before you play or spend that month's Pixels, and it's usually refunded. Deleting your Pixaplay account also cancels a paid Pass, but it deletes your Pixels too, so spend them first.

Is the Pixaplay Pass worth it for your group?

A quick gut check:

You mostly play Pecking Order with a big crowd. Skip it. The game is free to play in full. Our guide to browser games to play with friends lists what else costs nothing.
You and up to three friends love Rogue Defenders. Worth it once you've beaten the free tiers and want the Engineer and the Assassin. Only the host needs it for the hard tiers.
Your group wants Hearthfall. Everyone needs the Pass while it's in early access. Try it on the free week first.
You love playing games early. The Pass is the only way into the early-access games.

Before paying a thing, try the free games with your friends: play Pecking Order, or play Rogue Defenders with the free heroes, and see how your group gets on. The Hearthfall guide shows what the early-access village game is like.
