![]() ![]() ![]() By the time we shipped, the core gameplay team had created the Manticore boss, worked on getting the new dinosaurs and weapons ready for launch, and even got to act in the trailer. It launched on Septemon Steam and Xbox One and Decemon PS4. It is included in the Season Pass or can be purchased separately for 19.99 USD. We ended up giving GameSpot and several other game journalism sites an exclusive first look at the new map just before launch. ARK: Scorched Earth is an expansion pack for ARK: Survival Evolved. It was 10 weeks of incredibly hard work that showed me just how capable Studio Wildcard is at doing amazing things in a very short span of time. This new desert-themed map with loads of new content, which was initially handled by our contractor studio Efecto, was passed along to Wildcard within days of the new gameplay team being hired. Receiving the rough first pass in July and having to be ready to ship just before PAX West in September meant that we had very little time to do the dauntingly large remaining work. Luckily, this undertaking ended up being an insane trial-by-fire that gave us the chance to rapidly become acquainted with the ARK codebase and unfamiliar tools in UE4. The Scorched Earth ARK DLC was the first piece of content I shipped at Studio Wildcard.
