Following on from last week’s big rollout, ARK Survival Evolved fans will still be getting to grips with the new Dinos and buildable items that were released on PS4 and Xbox One.
For those on PC, the launch of the next round content isn’t far away.
The latest ARK: Survival Evolved PC build was supposed to arrive around January 25, this has since been put back due to it including a very big new feature.
“We’re going to be delaying the release of Patch 254 until the 30th of January. I know a lot of you are excited and trust me, we are too,” a message from Studio Wildcard reads.
“This patch is much larger than we first anticipated and we need more time to work on it in development, and through internal QA process prior public release. However soon you will get to enjoy a hell of lot of new content, and we’re cooking up an extra-special surprise feature for the patch!”
The listed PC patch notes can be found below, it should be noted that ARK Survival Evolved PS4 and Xbox One versions will also be getting this content, but on February 14 instead.
This will be due to the extra certification process game updates have to go through before they can be released on console platforms.
