A new Ark Survival Evolved Update has just been launched on PC today, while PS4 and Xbox One update is set for a later launch.
The new update brings improvements to the flying dinosaurs and nerfs their abilities to a good extent. However, this new update and all of its contents are available for PC only yet. It is expected that the changes that this new update brought, will be available on both PS4 and Xbox One after the launch on consoles.
Following are the patch notes for the new Ark Survival Evolved update.
