The Ark: Survival Ascended release schedule is jam-packed, and players already want to know when they get to survive and endure the Aberration content release.
Ark: Survival Ascended is in full swing with the release of The Center content drop and the paid Bob’s Tall Tales DLC. Developer Studio Wildcard isn’t standing idly by to watch Ark go extinct, though, as an update roadmap has documented the schedule ahead.
While everyone is exploring the first major map addition to the game, we already have some information on the arrival of the Aberration update.
Ark: Survival Ascended Aberration release date

Ark: Survival Ascended officially confirmed the Aberration content update is launching on Sept. 4, 2024. This is two months later than the initial roadmap suggested and overlaps with the potential release of the Ragnarok update. Considering The Center update scheduled for May was also delayed until June, we can expect the entire timeline to be pushed back by a couple of months.
While we don’t know much about Aberration yet, we know that Yi Ling will be an exclusive new creature for the Aberration area, like how the Fasolasuchus is localized to Scorched Earth—discounting Ark mods, of course.
Until Aberration, Scorched Earth and The Center will keep everyone ticking over. The full resource map of The Center will keep you afloat of key material locations, and we’ve also tracked down the hard-to-find Dear Jane notes.
