Ark: Survival Ascended is first Xbox Game Pass game for April 2024
“Form a tribe, tame & breed hundreds of unique dinosaurs and primeval creatures, explore, craft, build, and fight your way to the top of the food-chain. Your new world awaits!”
Ark: Survival Evolved is itself available with Game Pass, but Ark: Survival Ascended, reimagined through Unreal Engine 5, involves all kinds of improvements: new physics systems, cross-platform modding and multiplayer, all previously released DLC, and quality-of-life improvements all-round.
Ark: Survival Ascended had a bumpy ride before launch with multiple delays before a surprise Xbox Series X|S launch, followed by the devs saying servers are “ass” and promising improvements. It’s been several months since those troubles, and hopefully Ark: Survival Ascended’s Game Pass launch will refresh things.
Looking ahead into what else Ark has for us in 2024, we have Ark 2 on our list of all the upcoming Xbox exclusives!
