Luckily for gamers, alongside this news, Wildcard Studios has also promised an attractive discount for anyone purchasing the game at launch. 

Despite the allure of a freshly polished Ark: Survival Ascended world filled with optimizations and new features, fans will need to exercise some patience. The coming year will mark the release of this remastered classic from Studio Wildcard. This delay was confirmed by the studio itself via a post on Steam. As per the developers, they are taking extra time to ensure the multiverse adventurers on the ARK receive their optimal gaming experience.

Yes, there is a silver lining to this delay for the eager survivors waiting for their remastered gaming allure. The good news is that once the remastered version hits the digital shelves, it will carry a launch discount. From the post, it's clear the studio aims to reward gamers' patience and first-time purchasers with a cost-effective launch. This will indisputably cheer the survival instincts of any gamer before having to tackle the revamped dinosaurs and their habitats.
