DELAYED FREE DLC RELEASED THURSDAY 11TH JUNE

Ark Survival Evolved Crystal Isles has released after it was delayed due to the #blacklivesmatter movement. Studio Wildcard posted ""Given the situation in the US, and the rest of the world right now, we will be rescheduling the ARK in-game celebration until Thursday, June 11."

"We understand that our community has much anticipated the ARK in-game party and the launch of Crystal Isles, and we're looking forward to sharing all we have prepared for you next week.

"We felt it would be inappropriate to celebrate milestones during the present time as there are bigger things afoot, and that outweighs any plans we otherwise had. We believe now is the time to be respectful and hear the voices of others."

ARK IS FREE ON EPIC GAME STORE

Well, June 11th is here and it's great timing as the game is currently free to download and keep on the Epic Game Store.

To celebrate the 5th anniversary of Ark Survival Evolved Studio Wildcard are having a special in game event with a new dinosaur and the immensely unique and enjoyable Crystal Isles map.

The event is said to include "Party Dodos, interactive cakes, new chibis and surprised, and dazzling unicorns frolicking on rainbow".

The new dinosaur is called a Tropeognathus and will be available on Xbox, PS4 and PC platforms.
