Studio Wildcard claimed that this delay will give it enough time to polish it. The game will now release at the end of 2024. ![]() Lastly, Studio Wildcard has delayed ARK 2. Studio Wildcard will shut down the ARK servers once Survival Ascended comes out. And yes, if you don’t purchase the remaster, you won’t be able to play ARK at all. Furthermore, the team will include a new revamped game mode, Survival of the Fittest. Who can forget the awful GTA Trilogy Remasters? Or the remasters for Crysis 2 and Crysis 3? Or even Alan Wake Remastered? And what do all of them have in common? Well, all of them are not offered as free upgrades to owners of the original versions.Īnyway, at launch, players will have access to The Island, Scorched Earth. However, Studio Wildcard is not the only company that has done something like that. We havent officially announced the ARK UE5 upgrade yet 'cause there's other major things we wanna show then as well To clarify: the UE5 tease a couple weeks back is referring to in-the-works complete free upgrade/remaster of ARK Survival Evolved in UnrealEngine5. If you’re not going to offer something for free then you should not be advertising it like that. ![]() So yes, a lot of ARK players feel betrayed or cheated.

According to the devs, this bundle will include both ARK 2 and ARK: Survival Ascended. Instead, gamers will have to purchase a special bundle for it.

ARK: Survival Ascended will take advantage of numerous UE5 features, and will release in August 2023. This package will be available for one year, from August 2023 to August 2024 after this date, ARK 2 and ARK: Survival Ascended will be sold separately.Studio Wildcard has announced a remaster for the first ARK game in Unreal Engine 5, called ARK: Survival Ascended.
