Ark: Survival Ascended has seen some extra delays to its release on consoles, but now isn't the time to get impatient in the final stretch.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Ark: Survival Ascended still hasn't released on the Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5, but holding out just a little longer to see the console launch should be worth the wait. Initially slated for an August 2023 release, Ark: Survival Ascended was pushed back to an October window that the PC version ultimately landed. Last-minute problems discovered in the Xbox and PS5 versions, however, pushed them back to November.
For longtime Ark fans, this situation can be frustrating, especially in the midst of more significant delays for the highly anticipated Ark 2. Ark: Survival Ascended is a rebuild of the original Survival Evolved in Unreal Engine 5, the same engine as Ark 2, which should act as a reasonable diversion until the sequel finally appears.
Of course, some optimization issues and bugs are likely to be unique to different platforms, so there's no guarantee that everything will be smooth sailing the moment it drops. Optimization for consoles has less potential to run into severe problems, however, as standardized hardware means that it should be easier to establish a clear idea of what performance looks like ahead of launch and troubleshoot slowdowns or glitches.
Cross-platform mod compatibility comes courtesy of Curseforge, a mod platform available as a service from the overarching Overwolf ecosystem. Certain reviewed and vetted paid mods will be available through the client, but the majority should still be accessible for free.
Ark: Survival Ascended Will Have Split-Screen A final common concern for Ark: Survival Ascended was the potential lack of split-screen gameplay, which initially appeared to be a dropped feature. The PC release does, however, include it, and it appears to be coming to both Xbox and PlayStation as well, according to the appropriate store pages.
