During an Ark Twitch Steam with Studio Wildcard’s Jeremy Stieglitz, it was revealed that Ark Survival Evolved PS4 is currently in the submission process, and will likely release early December. In addition, it was confirmed that a PS4 Pro update is on its way as well.

　　The Twitch stream included some rather interesting details about Ark on PS4 and PS4 Pro, which were summarized by Reddit user “Steel_Cub”.

　　The launch of Ark on PS4 will be digital only, but a physical version will be released later on. Performance wise, the base PS4 version of Ark Survival Evolved will be on par with the Xbox One version, and will use the same client version. Both versions should be updated simultaneously in the future. Like the Xbox One version, the PS4 version will feature split-screen couch co-op. Unfortunately, there won’t be cross-platform play at launch, but Studio Wildcard said it would be possible. Additionally, it was revealed that there won’t be PSVR support, but the studio might be looking at it in the future.

　　Ark won’t support mods on PS4 at launch, but more details on this matter will be released alongside Ark’s official PS4 release announcement
