Star Coins collected in Parkour Worlds can now be spent at the Star Merchant!

The Star Merchant can be found in the Parkour Worlds microhub and offers a range of unique unlocks and cosmetics, including avatars, costumes, and various game unlocks.

Access to worlds is based on the total number of Star Coins that you have earned; spending Star Coins will not revoke your access to worlds that you have unlocked, nor hinder your ability to unlock worlds in the future, should more be added.

More Star Coins will be available in the future—don't worry if you can't unlock everything just yet!

This maintenance has been completed. All regions are back online.

Update (September 12, 2024): Based on feedback we have adjusted the short-range arrow nerf to always give knockback, and we have reduced the range from 6 blocks, to 5.
