Where to buy ELEX — official stores
Cheapest ELEX keys — keyshops
Keyshops are third-party marketplaces — keys are resold and can be region-locked or a different edition. Check the listing's region & edition before buying.
Some stores inflate their “regular” price to show a bigger discount. We flag those (⚠ inflated) and show the real saving against the actual list price.
Some store links are affiliate links — playze may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It never changes the price you pay, and the cheapest option is always shown in the Best price box above.

About ELEX
Play as a customizable protagonist navigating a massive seamless open world where your choices determine whether emotion or cold logic will dominate humanity's future in a post-apocalyptic science fantasy setting. Explore every corner with a jetpack-enabled vertical traversal system, engage in tactical combat against mutated creatures, and influence a deeply interconnected world where NPCs and quests react authentically to your decisions.

- Simulated game world where everything reacts to the players actions and provides for an authentic atmosphere

Great RPG. Open world. Decisions actually matter. Kinda nice when a game says that and delivers.1 found this helpful
I rate this game (0) Zero. Worst piece of crap I ever played. Don't waste your time and money on this garbage game. There is no fun to be had playing it. Try something as simple as joining a faction. You will run quest after quest after quest after quest with no progress of any kind. And when I say no progress I mean NO Progress. You will just be told to run more quest. The game is a never ending list of fetch quest. Piranha Bytes needs a kick in the pants every single one of them. Robbing me of my money wasn't enough. Just stole 21.5 hours of my life.
Really good RPG with good story and story switches, with nice big world full of unspoken stories, i really liked it but watch out on level ups, because you will receive nothing for points, only for perks you learn :) i find it out after level 11, then when i focused leveling and was puting points where i need them for better weapon or some perk, it starts go much more smoothly and there was not panick run after 2 rats starts attacking me :). So overall if you like rpgs with good story elements, and easy to learn fight systems, try it and it. P.S.: And for all berserkers : Let the machines rust. Let the roots grow!!!
Top tier eurojank, rip piranhabytes
This game is so janky... the combat is pretty bad, the dialogue content itself isnt bad, but the VAs (save for a couple) are really stiff and awkward. the game is punishing, i spend a lot of time running away. the UI is very clunky, like its a bit of a chore to navigate through your inventory and journal. the graphics are decent, the story is pretty dang interesting, and the characters are also interesting, and probably a huge part of why i keep playing this. would i recommend this game? yes. would i buy it at full price? i dont think i would. would i buy the second one or some sort of continuation to this if it ever came out? absolutely. it is janky in an endearing kind of way. Edit: Okay, so after having played this for a lot longer, i can say i do NOT recommend this game. The game went from endearing jank to "how did this get released". The enemy AI is stupid. The creatures seem to mainly target YOU, to the point they will ignore plenty of other creatures and NPCs to get to you. i guess the "in-game" explanation is due to you being full of elex or something? And do not get me started on the companion and friendly AI. Wooow, I thought I was being harsh at first, but i gave it tim…
I liked it. The combat is mid at best, and the enemies eat you alive. Still, the world they built was something new they created. I personally love post-apocalyptic settings where nature is healing already. The factions were different enough to understand what they were doing and why, but some still felt a bit like children playing "he hit me first." It's not as extreme as in Elex 2, but it is there. I had a lot of fun just running around. And yes, the graphics are a bit outdated, even for 2017 standards, but they are not as bad as people make them out to be.
