Studio Wildcard has announced that the PS5 version of Ark: Survival Ascended has been delayed, while confirming the Xbox Series X/S edition is on track for a November 14, 2023 launch.
Fortunately, the PS5 version of the game isn’t too far off, as the developer revealed in a blog post that it’s hoping to have the game out at the end of November.
We’re hoping to have a more precise date to share with you soon as we’re currently finalizing this with Sony, but it is slated for the end of November. We know this isn’t ideal, but we’re optimistic we’ll be able to share a date very soon!
In addition to the above, Studio Wildcard also revealed what to expect for Ark: Survival Ascended on PS5 at launch:
- Cross-platform with Steam and Xbox will be enabled Day One
- We’ll be onlining another new set of Official Servers for the respective game modes (PVP, PVE, and Small Tribes). These servers will be running with even higher boosted rates for a period of time to allow players starting on them to catch up. Our hope is to synchronize the rates by mid-December.
- We’ll also be onlining an additional set of console-specific servers with higher rates that will get synchronized by mid-December
