A deep roar echoes from the misty jungle, causing you to jump into action and rise - not afraid, but intrigued. Are you ready to form a tribe, tame and breed hundreds of species of dinosaurs and other primordial creatures, explore, craft, build and fight your way to the top of the food chain? Your new world awaits you... step through the looking glass and join in!

FEATURES

- ARK: Survival Ascended has completely redesigned and leveraged ARK's artwork and worlds with the latest video game technology, Unreal Engine 5. This makes use of high-end graphics features such as fully dynamic Global Illumination ("Lumen"), so light realistically reflects off surfaces and gives realistic reflections, and advanced mesh streaming ("Nanite") of hundreds of millions of triangles for extreme detail.

- Advanced new physics systems such as dynamic water, so each creature creates waves, ripples, splashes and bubbles as it moves through fluids, and fully interactive physical foliage in which every blade of grass, bush and tree responds to characters, explosions, projectiles and physics objects. Knock down a tree and watch it crash into other trees, disrupting all the foliage on its way down and smashing into the grass below! Detect an enemy sneaking through as the grass shifts and moves in response to their presence. Demolish a building and watch the pieces realistically fall apart, interacting with the grass and water.

- ARK: Survival Ascended provides access to all ARK worlds, including Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, ARK Genesis Part 1, ARK Genesis Part 2 and more. The Island is being released now and the following expansion worlds will be added regularly at no additional cost.

- The ultimate survival experience is better than ever: design your Survivor, form a tribe and tame, train, breed and control dinosaurs in a living ecosystem. Pay attention to your food, water, temperature and weather patterns. Expand slowly as you harvest, build structures, grow crops, customize your visual designs, and explore to discover the true nature of The Island and the worlds beyond.

- Thoroughly revamped quality of life in every area: redesigned user interfaces, dynamic navigation for intelligent creature tracking, wild babies, photo mode, new camera systems, new map system, tracking system, new structures and objects, new creatures and more.
