Community Crunch 359: ARK 2 Carnotaurus Saddle Concept & ASA Artwork Comparison
Posted on April 28th, 2023 10:59 PM EST
While we're going to wait to reveal the gameplay of ARK Survival Ascended until it's near final-form, we want to show you how we're approaching the new game artistically. ASA is much more than a complete technology overhaul, we are also going through and revising the artwork by hand for a new conception of the worlds of ARK. Here's a first look at what "Remaster" means in ARK Survival Ascended:
Stay tuned to subsequent Crunches for more looks at the reenvisioned style of ARK Survival Ascended!
We couldn't leave you with our previous ARK 2 Carnotaurus reveal without showing an example of our new-look dino armor! The team is thoroughly enjoying designing armor to make your favorite tames both protected and eye-catching. We look forward to seeing what players do with the arsenal options!
