Ark: Survival Evolved remake Survival Ascended is apparently out on PC today - but you can’t play it just yet

Ark: Survival Ascended, the remake of dinosaur survival game Ark: Survival Evolved, has resurfaced with its first gameplay trailer, showing off its flashy Unreal Engine 5 graphics, improved physics-based destruction and overhauled user interface. The biggest reveal, though, is that the Ark remake will apparently drop on Steam later today.

Being an ARK survivor, it's probable that you've faced challenging situations, leading you to seek information about ARK's diverse game mechanics. Since 2016, the ARK wiki has functioned as an essential reference for countless players as they embark on their initial adventures on ARK. The extensive documentation, starting from the core gameplay to the expansions, presents a considerable undertaking. Even within our team, we've turned to it for guidance!

The ARK wiki is preparing to ascend as well!

SKINS: ARK wiki has four new skins for survivors to peruse the wiki in style!

The Island: a dark green theme
Genesis Part 1: Blue theme

More skins are also in the works which will be inspired by the other DLCs.

Community Crunch 383: Community-Voted Creature Recap and Community Corner!

The wait for the Dreadnoughtus reveal is almost over! Be on the lookout for the concept in the Community Crunch next week. We're bursting with excitement for the arrival of all the community-voted creatures in ARK: Survival Ascended. Your involvement and participation are shaping the world, and we can't wait to see them in action. Here's a recap of the community-voted creatures you can expect to see on ARK: Survival Ascended:

Fasolasuchus is a dangerous denizen of Scorched Earth. Their ambushes and sand-whirlpool attacks make them a formidable threat. Taming these creatures is a challenging task due to their resistance to narcotics, but those who succeed gain a powerful companion for traversing the scorching sands.

Gigantoraptor, despite its intimidating size, is a nurturing creature, fiercely protective of its young. While taming adults seems impossible, taming their young can be rewarding, as they grow up to care for your tribe's creatures, teach them to fight, and help locate orphaned animals.

Yi Ling demonstrates remarkable agility, clinging to walls, gliding short distances, and evading attacks. It preys on smaller creatures, launching barbed feathers at them and rapidly regenerating its protective plumage. Tamed Yi Ling serves various purposes, from scouting caravans to harassing foes, with its unique diet potentially influencing its combat abilities!

Shastasaurus, akin to the Ichthyosaur, exhibits a profound fascination with humans. Taming this majestic sea creature proved to be a remarkable experience. Some tribes have even equipped Shastasaurus with periscopes, torpedo bays, and cargo holds, turning them into fantastical aquatic vehicles reminiscent of a bygone children's cartoon.
