ARK: Survival Ascended Delayed

The survival game series ARK took inspiration from the Jurassic-era world. It's been one of the most favorite survival games in the world since its release in 2015. The developer team of Studio Wildcard is developing ARK 2 and scheduling it for next year.

Wildcard delayed ARK: Survival Ascended till October.

But ARK2 is not the only edition under development by this game studio. In early 2023, Wildcard announced that ARK: Survival Ascended edition - the remade edition of Ark: Survival Evolved would be released this August.

However, the game studio has announced to delay its release for a couple of months. The ascended edition is developed in Unreal Engine 5. This game edition may come out this October as the game studio encountered some difficulties when working with the game Unreal Engine 5.2.

This is the remade version of Ark: Survival Evolved.

Plans For Ascended Edition

Wildcard delayed the release date of the Ascended edition to October. Besides, they also divided The Island and Scorched Earth maps in ARK: Survival Evolved into pieces to release remastered maps.

According to the previous schedule, the game studio planned to unleash two remastered maps together. However, they have to delay Scorched Earth Remaster and add it to ARK: Survival Ascended version in December.

Wildcard is remaking The Island and Scorched Earth maps for the current Edition of ARK.

This delay of ARK: Survival Ascended indicates that the Survival Evolved edition will be closed later than scheduled. Wildcard is developing the ascended version for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Whereas, ARK 2 will come out on Xbox Series X/S and PC at the end of 2024.
