    ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition had a suspect launch, but with the commitment and care of the developers, they have rallied back and the game makes for a fun time with friends or by yourself. The Island and Scorched Earth will test your survival instincts for sure. With the addition of the lovely ARK Dinosaur Discovery game you can download from the eShop for the kiddos and the new maps having a timeline in the future, you and your family will have plenty of things to do for the near future.

    ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition is a good survival game, and in this edition the developers have made a great effort to improve the experience such as loading screens and better textures but the frame drops continue. The expansions will arrive in the future so we only have all the content of the original game.

    Surprisingly, the online play works well, and it is cool to have a portable version of ARK for playing on the go. But would I recommend it on Nintendo Switch? $49.99 is…pricey for the quality. It’s worth it if you have no other way to play ARK, but only if it goes on sale. ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition itself is a very good, if not great, game, but this port is more mediocre than the best it can be. While I like playing it on Switch as an existing fan, I’m not sure I would if I was new to the game.

    Runs well after update. It’s good to finally be able to play without the crashes all the time.

En general ark en switch es más jugable y disfrutable… Full Review »

The game isGame looks and runs much smoother than what it was in 2018. The use of lighting and textures in Unreal Engine 4 is astounding. The game is still running in 30fps so it's not really anything to be wow about but the improvements they did over the original really makes the experience much more enjoyable. For those that got the original game will get this as a free update but those new to ARK could get this newer as a free update. A physical release is coming to so can't wait for that as well.… Full Review »
