‘Ark: Survival Evolved’ News, Update: Late March Patch Detailed, Community Worried About Potential Server Wipe

By Bryan Ke

Studio Wildcard, the developer of the hit early access dinosaur survival game "Ark: Survival Evolved," has finally released the details of the upcoming patch. However, some fans couldn't help but be worried for a potential server wipe after the new patch rolls in.

The dinosaur survival game is apparently plagued with plenty of exploits that duplicates the items of the players. Because of this, some fans in the "Ark: Survival Evolved" community have urged Studio Wildcard to release any form of statement regarding this issue. And if they will implement a server wipe in the near future.

Luckily, the "Ark: Survival Evolved" developer heard the plea and has posted a statement addressing the matter on a Reddit thread made by a fan. On the board, Studio Wildcard has reassured the fans that a rollback is not happening anytime soon. The developer's focus right now is to catch all the exploiters and dupers in the game's servers.

The "Ark: Survival Evolved" community, unfortunately, is seemingly disappointed by the lack of statements coming from the developer. But fortunately, Studio Wildcard associate producer, Jatheish Karunakaran, has explained why it takes a while before something comes out. "We avoided releasing a statement on it initially until we had patched out the exploit," he wrote.

Meanwhile, a new patch for "Ark: Survival Evolved" is now being worked on by Studio Wildcard. And those who are playing on the PC will receive the new update on March 29, according to the Steam post the developer made. Sadly, Studio Wildcard did not release any other news regarding the patch's release date, specifically for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 platforms. Head over to the official post to find out more details about the patch.

However, it shouldn't take that long before the "Ark: Survival Evolved" V255.62 patch comes out on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. After it rolls out on the PC, fans on the console can certainly expect the update to come out shortly - possibly within a week or so.
