Ark Survival Ascended Update 1.071.015

Following the big Aberration content patch for Ark Survival Ascended, Studio Wildcard has released yet another patch for the game again! In case you’ve forgotten, there was a patch released less than 16 hours ago for the PS5 that helped resolved crashing issues that made multiplayer unplayable.

This time around, another patch is released which shows up as Ark Survival Ascended update 1.052.008 on PS5, and version 52.9 on PC. It includes a host of gameplay-related adjustments, it seems and not just to help with performance.

Here’s what’s new per Studio Wildcard (via the official Ark Discord channel):

v52.9 – Minor version for Steam Clients – 06/09/2024 (Also on PS5, Xbox Series):

  • Rebaked the grass on Aberration
  • Fixed some cases where shadow flickering could occur
  • Fixed some client crashes
  • Fixed some animation bugs with Cosmo
  • Fixed some shuttering with the new Engineer outfit
  • Fixed some holes, volumes, and general visual level related bugs
  • Fixed some animation bugs with the Tesla Coils
  • Fixed some lumen issues with the Waterfall
  • Fixed some VFX issues with the Googun

Chances are, given the scope of the Aberration title update, this is not the only patch we’ll get to fix issues connected with the patch. Having said that, it won’t always be a client-side patch, as Studio Wildcard does sometimes roll out server-side fixes as well.

If we get wind of any major changes released yet again, we’ll be sure to post it up here on MP1st.
