ARK: Survival Evolved on Xbox One expands with new update and new dinos!

-

Whether you agree with the Xbox Game Preview scheme or not, there is one game which is making the most of its time in development and today ARK: Survival Evolve expands once again with another new update and a few new dinosaurs.

Studio Wildcard have dropped a new update onto the Xbox One version of ARK, and this one brings in the ‘Explorer Notes’ system, the chance to wield weapons whist riding smaller dinos,  and three new creatures – the prey-grabbing Kaprosuchus, the boulder-tossing Chalicotherium, and the oxygen-giving Diplocaulus. It also gives Tree Platforms +70% HP and +50% resistance to explosive damage whilst an irreversible Neuter/Spay option is in place for Tamed Dinos.

Full details are as follows, but if you’re an ARK survivor, you should be hugely interested in what this latest update brings.

Explorer Notes:

Found within 130 treasure chests and available now, the Explorer Notes contain the stories of actual inhabitants who have previously lived on the isle, as well as provide a temporary XP buff to those Survivors who collect them. These 3D Explorer and Story Notes are punctuated with powerful personalities from a Roman Centurion to an Ancient Chinese Warrior to an Egyptian Priestess, each one chronicling their experiences on ARK and unveiling kernels of the story secrets they have uncovered. What will they reveal about the mysteries that surround the ARK?

Kaprosuchus Paludentium:

A smaller relative of the Sarcosuchus, “Kapro” is a water-based carnivore primarily found among swamps and capable of high speed running on land or in water. Kapro is a solitary hunter that picks off small -to-medium creatures, especially those isolated from their packs. Survivors are generally split about the usefulness of this dino. Some love its versatile speed, while others do not like its physical frailty and do not think its high speed and damaging attacks make up for this shortcoming.

Diplocaulus Natatorinutrix:

At home mainly on the island’s swamps, Diplocaulus Natatorinutrix is a small amphibian residing at the middle-bottom of the ecosystem. The few uses for tamed Diplocaulus include the (rather disgusting) practice of employing it as an oxygen bag. Because Diplocaulus stores air in the bladders of its head, divers can suck from these bladders to take deep breaths while submerged, supporting long-term underwater exploration without the use of external gear. Diplocaulus’ unique capability to retain vast quantities of oxygen allows to effectively remain submerged for hours at a time, usually outlasting even other amphibious creatures that might otherwise prey upon it.

Chalicotherium Obsideoquus:

Found in small numbers in colder regions, Chalicotherium Obsideoquus is a primitive creature with simple behaviors. While normally a peaceful herbivore that prefers to spend its days lazing about or playing with its family, it is very territorial, and the entire family, young and old, will turn against an encroaching creature at just the slightest provocation. It’s believed that Chalicotherium is best used as a trained mobile artillery, as its unique playtime habit delivers a devastating long-range assault tactic when it is given boulders to throw, rather than snowballs!

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
