The release date for Ark Survival Ascended on PlayStation 5 is finally set. Several delays had to pass first.
When is the release on PS5? On November 30th it will be time and you can get started on Sony’s console. The developers initially thought of a release in early December but have now officially confirmed November 30th.
The time is set at 9:00 AM Pacific, which corresponds to 6:00 PM in Germany. However, keep in mind that there may be issues at launch and the release could be delayed.
Bugs and errors on PlayStation 5 are expected
This is broken: While the game was already able to launch on PC and Xbox, that does not mean that all known bugs have been eradicated for the PS5 launch. Instead, the team from Studio Wildcard even admits quite transparently on X (formerly Twitter) that the join-failure problem will occur in the game until the next patch.
On PC and Xbox, the bug has since been fixed. We embed the tweet here:
It can be assumed that the bug is in the game at launch because the update to fix the problem has not yet been certified by PlayStation.
However, these are not game-breaking bugs. You can still download the game and get started. It is also positive that fixes are already on the way and the problems, at least in this case, have been identified.
On the PC, you can already play Ark: Survival Ascended since October 25th. For players on Xbox, there were several delays until it was finally released on November 21st. The launch on PlayStation is thus the last major release milestone. Fans hope that after this, the developers can focus on new content and bug fixes.
Will you play the new Ark on PlayStation right at launch or will you wait until the first bugs have been fixed? Please share your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments.
