Community Crunch 523: Swipe Right

The claws are almost ready, Survivors. We’ve already shown you a more expressive Therizinosaurus in the wild, and how tamed Therizinos will begin to reflect the harvesting roles they play within your tribe. But we haven’t talked about how those changes will feel once…

Community Crunch 522: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

This week, we're taking a closer look at the Cerberax, and its dossier reveals there's considerably more to taming this mythological monster than simply surviving the encounter. Each head will need to be dealt with on its own terms, and convincing all three that you're worth…

Community Crunch 521: Big Ship Energy

All hands on deck, Survivors! The Galleon has officially set sail! This absolute behemoth offers Survivors a massive new canvas for fortress-style base building on the open water, backed by a formidable battery of cannons ready to turn a passing disagreement into a full…

Astraeos Heaven & Abyss Update is now live!

Community Crunch 520: Three heads. One very good boy.

Survivors, mark your calendars because September 30 is shaping up to be a big day on the ARKs! The Unreal Engine 5.8 upgrade, Therizinosaurus TLC, Cerberax, and Gargantar are all set to arrive together in one packed release. The move to Unreal Engine 5.8 represents one of the…

Community Crunch 519: Tusk, Tusk, Boom!

Things are about to get a little crispy on Astraeos. On August 26, the final update to Astraeos arrives, and charging headfirst into the fray is the Boaratos, a fiery new bruiser that's happiest when things get up close, and preferably a little singed. Download in full…

    Astraeos Heaven & Abyss Update is now live!

    Astraeos reaches 1.0 with Heaven and the Abyss: a floating-island region, a deep-sea map with air-bubble build space, rolling wave mechanics, the Trireme warship, two Kraken boss fights and the Colossus and Kroaratos minibosses.

    For your guild
    Underwater build space and working seas move a tribe's base decisions off land, and the Trireme needs a crew rather than a rider. The two Kraken fights want different kit: one is underwater, one at the surface.

    Community Crunch 518: Long Live the King!

    Community Crunch 518 opens with Giganotosaurus TLC concept art, dates Genesis Part 1 transfers for September 4 with the Expires servers closing September 18, and runs bonus official rates through August 10.

    For your guild
    The dates are the job. A tribe on Genesis Expires servers has September 4 to 18 to move creatures and items off, and the bonus rates through August 10 make this the weekend to schedule taming and breeding.

    Community Crunch 517: Sharper Than Ever

    The Therizinosaurus gets the TLC treatment voted for at Extra Life: combat responsiveness, controls and traversal all change, wild ones now telegraph before they charge, and no two look quite alike.

    For your guild
    This is more than a reskin. If your tribe leans on Therizinos for harvesting, expect them to handle differently, and expect wild ones to be readable enough that fewer members die walking past them.
