The Next Ark: Survival DLC Is Ragnarok
Ragnarok DLC Is Free & Coming Soon
Ark: Survival Ascendedwill get itsRagnarokDLC next. For those who may have been turned away by having to pay forAstraeos, theRagnarokDLC will be free. Based on theRagnarokDLC forSurvival Evolved, that means players can expect a new map, including various new regions, as well as unique environmental features and more.
InArk: Survival Ascended Astraeos, some of thebest creatures to tameinclude the Baryonyx, the Pyromane, and the Deinosuchus.

Details onRagnarokare still a bit scarce, but since it’s based on a DLC that already exists inASE, it’s somewhat easy to predict everything that will be added. If it’s anything likeAstraeos, it will also come with bug fixes and other improvements not previously seen in the existing mod orEvolvedDLC. Hopefully, fans will also get somelong-awaited dinosaurs still missing from the game.
