Ark: Survival Evolved devs respond to backlash over $50 remaster: now it costs $60 and comes with DLC instead of Ark 2

Ark Survival Evolved

After considerable backlash to its plans of selling a major Ark: Survival Evolved update that was previously set to be free, developer Studio Wildcard has responded by making the pricey upgrade slightly pricier.

Ark is upgrading to Unreal Engine 5, and the developers said in the past that this update would be a free one. Last week, they announced that this upgrade would actually come in the form of Ark: Survival Ascended, a full-on remaster that would only be available to Xbox and PC players as part of a $49.99 USD bundle that also comes with the upcoming sequel Ark 2.
