The $44.99 ($39.99 at launch discount) price point is for ARK: Survival Ascended which includes The Island, Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, Genesis Parts 1 and 2, as well as the free non-cannon maps we had previously released as official mod maps. You will not be required to pay extra for the aforementioned remastered content. Mods are going to be available Day 1 on every platform exclusively through Overwolf, whether you're on PC or Consoles. Additionally, we will not be launching with Premium Mods until later in the year. We'll have more information on the Modding Process as we get to the launch of the game and we can't wait for you to get your hands on it! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/8729288/16909bcdf8c6ec7821ba65d996b18b45160cfe01.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/8729288/9f559f4dc2a443db312d5909a2f1c7ccc0bce101.png Down we go to Aberration's depths for our next community voting contest.
