Dino-hunting survival game ARK: Survival Evolved will release on Xbox One next Wednesday, December 16 via the Xbox Game Preview program, Studio Wildcard has confirmed.
The game will cost $34.99 in the US, although a UK price has yet to be announced.
“Our goal is to bring all this chaotic and creative spontaneous fun – the tribe building, dino-breeding, dino-combat, the weapons-, armor-, food-, and recipe-crafting, and more – to Xbox One fans with no compromises,” co-creative director Jess Rapczak told IGN, before confirming that the Xbox One version will contain “everything that’s in the PC version right now”.
The Xbox One Preview version won’t be updated as frequently as the PC version, however, Rapczak suggests, although the studio promises to have updates “no further than two weeks apart full of new content, features and general improvements across the board”.
If you do decide to pick it up on Xbox One during the Preview, though, you’ll be given access to the Limited Edition Xbox-Exclusive Founder’s content, which includes an unlockable bionic ‘Tek’ T-Rex skin, ARK Founder’s Hat skin and an ARK Founder’s Trophy.
The full version is scheduled to launch on Xbox One, PS4 and PC in June 2016. To see what it looks like on Xbox One, take a look at the trailer below.
