ARK: Survival Evolved Console Versions Receive New Update

By Kelly Packard,

ARK: Survival Evolved has received another update. It's what was known as the v256 update on PC, labeled v506 on the PS4. The update adds more dinos, additional TEK items, breeding for aquatic creatures and, most importantly, a unicorn (just kidding, it's an Equus Magnus).

Studio Wildcard has provided a list of the important additions, like the new dinos, mechanics and items. There's also a video if you prefer a visual of what's new. For the more detailed patch log, head over to the official ARK forum post here.

Mechanic: Aquatic & Amphibious Creature Breeding
Dinos: Equus, Leedsichthys, Ichthyornis, Iguanodon!
