  • Community Crunch 512: Preparing to Set Sail

    image.png

    We're incredibly excited to get ARK: Genesis Ascended Part 1 and ARK Tides of Fortune into your hands, with all of the new features and gameplay systems that they add. To ensure the experience is where we want it to be across all platforms, we need a few extra days to complete final certification and apply the finishing touches ahead of launch.

    As a result, ARK: Genesis Ascended Part 1 and ARK Tides of Fortune will now release on July 2, 2026. 

    The team has been hard at work bringing these expansions to life, and this additional time will allow us to ensure a smoother launch for everyone, so that your first voyage across the vast new waters will be the best it can be.

    We know you're eager to set sail, and we truly appreciate your patience and support as we navigate the final stretch. We can't wait to share this new adventure with you on July 2.

    Official Classic servers are being introduced to ARK: Survival Ascended by Snail Games. Conquest is a new PvP player experience which focuses on large-scale PvP while avoiding the problem of mega tribes. Increased rates will allow tribes to set up and establish themselves quickly and enable them to rebuild after potential losses instead of being wiped completely.

    The official Classic servers are open for PC, Xbox and PlayStation and will transition to Conquest servers on July 2nd at 4 PM PDT.

    If you need any support during the Conquest season, join the Conquest Enforcement's Discord.

    Another terrible crunch with little to no information Plus its now delayed by a full week. To compensate show us the map layout, new engrams ,map screenshots JUST SOMETHING aside from lazy renders that don't mean anything . Do better.

    its absolutely astounding youve had 6 MONTHS to make 1 map and still cant fuking get it done in time. And everyone knows there will still be issues at launch. Theres not a chance in hell this company lasts. 6 months for 1 map and its STILL delayed. Such incompetent people.

    Studio Wildcard, for future Community Crunches PLEASE do not put a release date until something is fully ready for release. Don't listen to those making hateful comments and instead just stop putting release dates so the community can be surprised whenever something is ready for release.

    so the crunch is to announce the delay of Genesis, but still no work on when the event skins and cosmetics tab is going to be fixed ... classic 

    It's a capitalist plot to get you to buy them all again with hexagons from HLNA

    They are pathetically poor at what they do.  The biggest meme studio going. If Snail had any guts, they'd pull the plug and shut it down. Embarrassing.

    Y'all went from releasing it right in the middle of my vacation, to having it come out on the last day of vacation....

     

    Very disappointing

    Honestly, I was waiting a complete Crunch, but okay, another delay.

    In the positive side, the ships looks cool.

    Please remember that these are still people.  Calling them "incompetent" and "idiots" because they had to push the launch back a week feels uncalled for.  Do better, comment dwellers.

    I'm sorry, I've been here since the game released into beta. How in the world have you guys not figured out how to get releases out on time. You've been doing this for over a decade 😭

    I wonder if the new ships will make use of silk in their sails or if other additions will come out that use it. Been riding around on my new Araneo and the stuff sort of just piles when all it ends up being used for is desert clothing, tents or whips.

    If I had $10,000 for every day wildcard has delayed an update, I'd be wealthier than Elon Musk.

    Those are just the recent delays. The only update wildcard has EVER landed on the original launch date is ASE Scorched Earth.
