We know it’s been a long wait for PlayStation survivors, who have always been very vocal and supportive of the game and finally, today we can proudly announce that ARK: Survival Evolved will be launching on the Playstation Platform this December 6th! This would not have been possible without each and every one of you, Sony heard your roars and together we were able to work together for this special winter release!

ARK: Survivor’s Pack will be available for purchase in both North America and Europe, this bundled offering includes both the base game, ARK: Survival Evolved, and the massive desert-themed expansion, ARK: Scorched Earth together!

The ARK: Survivor’s Pack gives PS4 players an up-to-date version of ARK: Survival Evolved that includes the previously released content, plus Scorched Earth -- ARK’s first Expansion Pack. The Survivor’s Pack adds extra PS4 content including a Bionic Giganotosaurus skin plus an entire Manticore armour set for male and female characters.

The bundle will be available for $54.99 USD in North American regions, or €49.99 in Europe. European survivors will also have the opportunity to pick up ARK: Survival Evolved as a standalone game for €34.99 and its Scorched Earth Expansion Pack for €19.99. Unfortunately, we were not able to release the content as two standalone items for the North American regions, until Spring 2017.

PS4 ARK players will, of course, receive a constant stream of major updates packed with new dinosaurs, weapons, armour, mechanics, and lifestyle improvements, in approximate tempo with the other platforms, until the game releases as a final product in Spring 2017.

Welcome to the ARK Tribe PS4 Survivors, we’re happy to have you join us on this wild ride and hope you’re ready for the next few content-packed months! See you on the 6th!

All the best,

Wildcard Jat and the ARK: Survival Evolved Team

I checked and this is still early access on Steam - does this mean the PS4 version will lack a lot of recent updates? I didn't see anything about the PC version being near release at all, so this is confusing. Porting a game that isn't done on one platform to another platform where it is done.

Wonder when the PSVR content will release.

I've been looking forward to this but I've heard that the Xbox One version runs like garbage. Can anyone confirm if that's still the case?

It's not done on any platform. It likely never will be to be honest. 1 year and 5 months later, still waiting on a basic crash fix no other UE4 devs are suffering from.

if your not going to play it on xbox why does it matter

Because it also runs like garbage on PC's that decimate the PS4. It's going to run like shit on everything.
