Something I thought would never happen, but today Studio Wildcard has announced that ARK Survival Evolved has gone gold and released as version 1.0



Since its launch into Steam’s early access program in June 2015, over 10 Million survivors have been stranded on the ARK island, wandering into an incredible land to discover how to tame, train, ride, and breed the 100+ dinosaurs and primeval creatures roaming the land. Today the mysterious island reveals its true meaning to current players and new Island initiates!

“Sharing the development process with players has led to more amazing content than we could have ever imagined when we set out on this journey,” said Jeremy Stieglitz, Lead Designer, Lead Programmer, Development Director, Co-Creative Director, Co-Founder of Studio Wildcard. "If you haven’t been to ARK island since the early days, we invite you to come back to visit and explore. Having the game available on every continent, opening our world of dinosaurs to new and existing players across the globe is an exciting recruiting prospect. Welcome to the Island new ARK survivors!"
