News, updates and information about the survival game “ARK Survival Ascended” by Wildcard.
With the latest update, the annual in-game event "Summer Bash" kicks off. The ARK is transformed into a summer atmosphere – featuring colorful dinos, fun skins, special emotes, and seasonal decorations. Club Ark has also been visually updated to match the season. The event can be activated on both official and private servers and offers new content as well as familiar favorites from previous years.
With patch v66, ARK: Survival Ascended takes a significant step forward: The migration to Unreal Engine 5.5 improves the technical foundation for better performance, stability, and visual quality. Individual DLC maps can now be installed or removed separately – a plus for storage and mod management. Also new is the cross-platform backup system for single-player, which allows for automatic backups, as well as a performance-optimized graphics preset on PC that prioritizes framerate over graphics.
