Rank17’s SUPER PIXEL SMASH has arrived on SteamVR! Get ready to destroy walls, trigger power-ups, and earn as many points as possible in this thrilling take on the classics Breakout and Arkanoid.
Enter the fast-paced, neon-induced Super Pixel Smash league — where the Pixel Paddle and Gravity Gauntlet rule supreme. Smash a Digital Energy Orb into a destructible wall and chain combos together to earn a spot on the coveted Super Pixel Smash leaderboards — but be sure to maintain the orb’s momentum if you want to keep your combos alive. You must use the Gravity Gauntlet to retrieve the orb when it slows down … or it’s over.
You can also target special bricks to trigger power-ups:
* Point multipliers – Multiply your score
* Orb multipliers – Get additional Digital Energy Orbs to smash
* Charged shots – Destroy multiple parts of the wall in one hit
* Speed boosts – Increase the orb’s momentum
Meet score goals to unlock additional levels — each with different wall panels and challenges. Accumulate enough points and you’ll be granted access to a special bonus room, where all the walls are destructible — but be sure to avoid the dreaded red bricks and bouncing red balls!

Steve Iverson (Studio Head, Rank17):
“Playing a game like Breakout in VR has been a childhood dream of mine. With Super Pixel Smash, we go one step further — driving sight and sound further than we could ever imagine in the ‘80s. If you ever wanted to hit an energy sphere while fully immersed in a pixel-based world, this is it!”
