Ark: Survival Ascended
54k – 190k daily players
Ark: Survival Ascended is a next-generation remaster of our beloved ARK: Survival Evolved, harnessing the power of Unreal Engine 5. The base game will include SOTF and all the Ark: Survival Evolved DLC maps (which will be added to ASA over time).
Ark: Survival Ascended is estimated to have 54k – 190k players a day. Around 2m – 4m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
