When Ark: Survival Evolved<\/a> stumbled onto the Switch back in 2018, it was borderline unplayable<\/a> on the hybrid system.<\/p>\n

Studio Wildcard is looking to turn this around with Ark: Ultimate Survivor Edition<\/strong> – a complete revamp of the original game, rebuilding the title on Unreal Engine 4 and enhancing the functionality, graphics and optimisation.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, if you were excited about the game’s September launch, it seems you’re going to have to wait a little bit longer – with the developer revealing at PAX West today that the game has now been delayed until October 25th<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Existing owners of Ark: Survival Evolved on Switch will receive this “complete revamp” as a free update. All existing progress and save data will be maintained as well. Here’s what else you can expect, along with a look at the development build:<\/p>\n
