ARK: Survival Ascended players have a lot to look forward to in the coming year and beyond. Studio Wildcard has unveiled a content roadmap packed with exciting updates and improvements.

The ARK: Survival Ascended Content Roadmap (2025-2026):

This roadmap outlines a steady stream of content releases, balancing free additions with premium DLCs:

• March 2025: The highly anticipated Unreal Engine 5.5 update for enhanced visuals and performance. This update also includes the ability to download DLC packs individually, reducing overall install size. Nvidia Frame Generation is also planned for smoother gameplay.

• April 2025: Free Ragnarok Ascended, a free Bison creature, and a new Fantastic Tame.

• June 2025: Launch of a new premium map (paid DLC). Details are scarce, but more information is promised soon.

• August 2025: Free Valguero Ascended, a community-voted free creature, and another Fantastic Tame.

• April 2026: Free Genesis Ascended Part 1 and Bob’s True Tales Part 1.

• August 2026: Free Genesis Ascended Part 2 and Bob’s True Tales Part 2.

• December 2026: Free Fjordur Ascended and a second community-voted free creature.

Beyond the scheduled releases, expect multiple Fantastic Tames throughout 2026. Community involvement is key; active forum participation will allow you to influence creature choices.

Alongside new content, Studio Wildcard is actively addressing player concerns. Top priorities include resolving:

• Creature spawning problems
• Battle rig functionality issues
• Game crashes
• General performance improvements
• Exploit fixes

This comprehensive approach ensures a more polished and enjoyable experience.
