Studio Wildcard showed the first gameplay trailer of Ark: Survival Ascended today and announced the game has been released through Steam Early Access.
Console and PC players will have this capability at launch, with Steam PC players joining cross-platform in December 2023.
It will feature cross-platform modding, online multiplayer for up to 70 players, private-session multiplayer for up to 8 players, and local split-screen for 2-4 players.
Announced in April 2023, Ascended is a next-generation remaster of Survival Evolved developed using Unreal Engine 5 and includes access to all of Ark’s worlds, including Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, Genesis Part 1, and Genesis Part 2.
