Updating issues
PC users will have to download a 2 GB update for ARK but console users will get a whopping 20 GB + update. Some gamers are reporting server issues while downloading the update, mentioning unstable allocations.
The new season pass is also something that is kind of unclear. As it is not available for PC users on Steam yet. But some are reporting that they can access the DLC just fine by finishing the download.
Next Season Pass
Ark Genesis Part 1 will be the next season pass and will be available on December 2019. The content for the next major update has been teased today by the devs. But Part 2 will take a considerable amount of time to be released, with a late 2020 scheduled launch.
