Studio Wildcard announces the release of the
ARK: Aberration expansion for
Ark: Survival Evolved. This is available as a standalone purchase, or as a
free download for those who already own the original game. Here's a
launch trailer and
here are more details:
The world of ARK: Survival Evolved just became far
larger today as the game’s second expansion pack “Aberration” has gone live. Set
in elaborate underground caves, where players must hide from dangerously intense
sun that has turned the ARK's surface into an irradiated hellscape, ARK:
Aberration contains a new storyline to explore, dozens of new creatures to tame
and more than 50 new items to craft.
Waking up on ‘Aberration’ - a derelict, malfunctioning ARK featuring an
elaborate underground biome system filled with new challenges unlike those found
on prior ARK maps. Extreme radioactive sunlight, earthquakes, and environmental
hazards, ziplines, wingsuits, climbing gear, fantastical creatures like the Rock
Drake and Basilisk, and more await survivors throughout these vast caverns.
Beware the ‘Nameless’: unrelenting, Element-infused humanoids, which have
evolved into vicious light-hating creatures, and the Reapers, massive alien
monstrosities which can impregnate foes to spawn their offspring!
Aberration is free to ARK season pass owners and $19.99 USD standalone on Xbox
One, PS4 and PC/Steam.
