Ark Survival Evolved patch notes with the latest game updates

The Ark Survival Evolved patch notes keep us up to date on the latest fixes released for the game along with any new content being added, and considering it's now been around for over five years including the early access phase there's still an impressive amount of updates being rolled out. These tend to come in two flavors, with minor fixes to resolve any small issues alongside less frequent major versions when new features or events drop, and as release schedules differ across formats there are independent version numbers maintained for Steam and Epic Games, Windows 10 and Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. These will generally correlate, though PC fixes often arrive slightly earlier than their console counterparts, and here we have the last few important updates on each format.

The most recent Ark Survival Evolved patch notes match up across all formats, with an additional nod on PlayStation 4 to fixing some recent saving issues. The biggest problem to get resolved seems to be a cooldown on defecation, though this doesn't actually say whether too much or not enough poop was the issue. Otherwise, we have the welcoming of the new Fjordur map, along with the standard teething fixes of filling in map holes and blocking unspecified exploits.
