Ark Survival Ascended is a remake of Evolved using the Unreal Engine 5. Featuring cutting-edge visuals, including Lumen GI, Nanite geometry, and Virtual Shadows, it’s a lofty upgrade over the original. Unfortunately, the performance is far from ideal, requiring frame generation for playable framerates on even the fastest PCs.
Lost Colony, the latest expansion coming to Ark: Survival Ascended, is coming next month, setting the groundwork for the eventual Ark 2.

ARK: Survival Ascended has introduced Premium Mods on consoles. Wccftech talked to Studio Wildcard and their partner Overwolf about the rising importance of user-generated content, especially for live service games.

Studio Wildcard has launched a 'major' update for ARK: Survival Evolved's modding software, ARK Development Kit, available now.
