March 25th, 2023, 18:00 GMT / 13:00 EST / 12:00 CST / 10:00 PST
We have some exciting news to share with you all. We will have a brand new reset for KitPvP! This time around, the KitPvP map reset is a full reset. This means that all player progress will be reset and everyone starts fresh again. After having multiple map updates, we have decided that a reset would be the best way to go. This allowed us to update all the plugins for providing a smooth and enjoyable experience for all players.
To make sure everything is in top shape, we've been working hard to fix any bugs and improve the overall gameplay experience. Our new and improved anticheat system will keep the game hopefully fair for everyone, ensuring that cheaters are dealt with promptly.
We have put effort into creating a map that captures the essence of the Wild West. From the saloons in spawn, we've made sure that details are on point.
We believe that this season will be one of our best yet, and we're confident that you'll have a great time exploring and conquering the Wild West. So, mark your calendars and get ready to join us for the launch of our new Wild West-themed season. We can't wait to see you there!

New! Anti Cheat
Here at PikaNetwork, we're always striving to provide our players with the best possible experience. We're thrilled to announce that we've updated our AntiCheat system to ensure a safe and fair gameplay environment once again.
We understand that stability is key, so we're working tirelessly to make sure that the AntiCheat is effective without causing any unnecessary disruptions for regular players. Moreover, we've made sure that the AntiCheat integrates flawlessly with other features, such as /printer, to prevent players from being kicked for innocent actions.
As always, we're continuously developing the AntiCheat system with updates, tweaks, and fine-tuning. However, we're confident that our latest updates are a stride in the right direction towards creating a secure and enjoyable gaming experience for all players.
Updated! Crates
We've revamped the crate rewards on our server to ensure a balanced and fair reward system for all players.
Our team has worked tirelessly to ensure that every crate contains rewards that are carefully curated to fit the current state of the server economy.
We've taken steps to fix any previous errors in crate rewards to ensure that all players receive the correct rewards they deserve. Our goal is to provide a rewarding experience for players while maintaining a fair and balanced gameplay environment.
With these changes, we've made sure that every reward is meticulously chosen to fit the current state of the server economy. We want to make sure that every player feels like they're getting the rewards they deserve for their hard work.
We're confident that our updated crate reward system will provide a more enjoyable and rewarding experience for all players.
Get ready to open those crates and see what exciting new rewards await you!
New! Target Mode
This feature is called "Target Mode," and it adds a new level of excitement and challenge to your battles.
When you're inside the PvP area, you may randomly be selected as the "target." Once selected, the coordinates of your location will appear on every player's screen, making you the primary focus of everyone's attention. If you're able to survive for the duration of the target mode, you'll receive a money reward for your successful evasion.
On the other hand, if another player is able to take you down, they'll be rewarded with a cash prize for their successful elimination of the target. This creates a thrilling dynamic where every player becomes a potential target or hunter.
We believe that this feature will add a new layer of excitement to our PvP battles and encourage players to become more strategic in their gameplay. It's also a great way to earn some extra cash while showing off your skills.
New! Player Profiles
Introducing the all-new Player Profiles feature!
Say goodbye to the old /stats menu and hello to a wealth of information about every player on Kitpvp.
With Player Profiles, you can view an array of statistics, including your wins and losses, points earned, and more.
Additionally, you can filter these profiles by weekly, lifetime, and monthly stats. To access your own profile or someone else's, simply run /profile or /profile <playername>.
This is your chance to see how you stack up against the competition and track your progress over time.
So, get ready to dive into the new Player Profiles and see where you stand in the world of KitPvP!
New! Trading
Our server now has a brand new custom trade plugin, and trading is finally back in the game!
With this new plugin, players can now easily and safely trade items with each other in-game. We've designed it to be user-friendly, making it easy for players to navigate and make trades with ease. This plugin is the perfect solution for those looking to trade rare or hard-to-find items with other players.
We know how important trading is in many games, and we're thrilled to bring it back to our community. We've made suree that this plugin is secure and free from any exploits, making it a safe option for players who want to trade.
New! Fishing Rewards
If you're a beginner player in the arena and finding it hard to gain money by killing players, don't worry! There is an alternative way to make some cash. There are multiple fishing ponds located around the arena where you can fish and sell the fish to an NPC on the map. This is a profitable method that can help you build up your resources.
Additionally, there are four fishing contests held daily, occurring every four hours. Participating in the contests is easy, simply start fishing when the contest begins. The top five players who catch the most fish will receive a money reward. You can keep an eye on the leaderboard during the contest by using /fish top command. However, be aware of your surroundings as other players may attack you since you are in the PvP arena.
So, if you're looking for a less risky way to make some money in the arena, give fishing a try!
New! Outpost
If you're looking for a way to give your gang a boost while engaging in PvP, you might want to try capturing the outposts located around the map. To capture an outpost, all you need to do is stand on the platform, eliminate any previous captors, and wait for the percentage to change in your favor.
There are two outposts that gangs can capture. If you capture the north outpost, your gang will receive a money boost, which can come in handy for purchasing weapons or other supplies. On the other hand, if you capture the south outpost, your gang will receive a star boost, which can improve your gang's reputation and make it more appealing to other players.
So, if you're looking for a way to give your gang an edge in PvP, consider capturing one of the outposts. With a little strategy and teamwork, you can gain valuable rewards and dominate the competition.
New! LeaderBoards
We've added more leaderboards to our server, and we now have daily leaderboards too!
Leaderboards track different aspects of gameplay, including player stats and more. With these leaderboards, you can see how you stack up against other players in various categories, and track your progress over time.
We're also excited to introduce our new daily leaderboards. These leaderboards refresh every day and track the top players in various categories for that day. This means that players have a chance to see their name on the leaderboard every day and compete for daily rewards.
We believe that these new leaderboards will add a new level of competition to our server and give players even more reason to play and improve their skills. It's also a great way to track your progress and see how you're improving over time.
New! Chat Games
Get ready to flex your linguistic and numerical muscles like never before with the latest addition to KitPvP server!
Introducing Chat Games, an exhilarating new feature that runs every 30 minutes.
With every successful win, you'll earn a valuable Chat Games Point that can be traded for some amazing rewards at our brand-new /chatgames shop.
Step up to the challenge and put your skills to the test with our two exciting challenges: Unscramble and Math. With your lightning-quick thinking and sharp wit, you can emerge as the ultimate champion and earn some serious bragging rights.
UnscrambleIn the Unscramble game, players will need to unscramble a Minecraft-related word within 20 seconds.
MathIn the Math game, players will be given a mathematical equation to solve within 20 seconds.
The fastest player to correctly answer each game will win a Chat Games Point and earn their place on the leaderboard.
