When Ark: Survival Evolved stumbled onto the Switch back in 2018, it was borderline unplayable on the hybrid system.
Studio Wildcard is looking to turn this around with Ark: Ultimate Survivor Edition – a complete revamp of the original game, rebuilding the title on Unreal Engine 4 and enhancing the functionality, graphics and optimisation.
Unfortunately, if you were excited about the game’s September launch, it seems you’re going to have to wait a little bit longer – with the developer revealing at PAX West today that the game has now been delayed until October 25th.
Existing owners of Ark: Survival Evolved on Switch will receive this “complete revamp” as a free update. All existing progress and save data will be maintained as well. Here’s what else you can expect, along with a look at the development build:
Key new features of ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition for the Nintendo Switch include:
– New cinematic story content to further expand the narrative of ARK: Survival Evolved.
– Custom server support powered by Nitrado server networks.
– “Young Explorers” Mode: Journey through the epochs in this new educational mode. Explore ARK island to discover & learn about the amazing prehistoric creatures that inspired the game. Appropriate for even the smallest survivors!
