A remaster of the poop-harvesting dino trainer Ark: Survival Evolved in Unreal Engine 5, Ark: Survival Ascended was initially teased as if it was a free upgrade. When it was officially announced as part of a $50 bundle that included pre-orders of Ark 2, fans were less than impressed. Studio Wildcard turned around and announced that rather than package the remaster with the sequel’s pre-orders, it would instead come with several DLC upgrades, with more coming as free updates after launch. bottom. Also, the price is $10 higher.
Studio Wildcard was aiming to release the remastered version in late August, but it was pushed back to October.As the latest information of the studio Newsletter “Using Unreal Engine 5.2 has been challenging, yet incredibly exciting at the same time. Combined with the work required to support it, we are discovering new ways every day to push the technology to the next level. I will.” It’s clear that we need a little more time to achieve a fully cross-platform he-moddable game ecosystem on consoles and PC. ”
It was due to launch with The Island expansion, but Scorched Earth had to move to a post-launch update, and additional DLC maps were also postponed. “Scorched Earth is slated to come to ASA this December,” the studio said, adding that “Ragnarok and Aberration will follow in Q1 2024, with the rest of the maps coming after that.”
And again the price fluctuates. Ark: Survival Ascended will be priced at $40 with the launch discount, then $45 for the rest of the Early Access period, which is estimated to last through the end of 2024.
In light of this delay, Studio Wildcard’s planned August 31st shutdown of the original version’s official servers has also been postponed. From now on he will be online until September 30th. Assuming nothing changed in the meantime.
In case you forgot the improbable details, Ark 2 starring Vin Diesel is slated for release in late 2024.
