What is going on with Ark survival ascended windows 10 being pulled from cross play. When...

Hi Hüseyin_572,

I believe that Ark Survival Evolved is not a cross platform game. I understand you and your friend are using Windows 10 but there is no cross play with Ark Survival Evolved between Xbox GamePass Beta and Steam.

Hi Toothpick42O, my name is Courtney and I would be happy to help.

I understand your frustration, but this decision has been made by the video game developer.

The cross-platform PVP multiplayer feature in Ark: Survival Ascended has been temporarily turned off for Windows 10 users due to extensive problems with cheating. Studio Wildcard, the game's developer, chose to disable cross-platform play in order to maintain the game's integrity.

I hope this information has been useful to you.

Greetings,
Courtney.

Oh sorry for the confusion its ark survival ascended

Hi there Kristy, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

Yes, Ark: Survival Ascended features Cross-Play between Xbox consoles and PC. However, the player on PC must be playing from Steam and not from the version of the game on the Microsoft Store, as that PC version currently does not support Cross-Play due to its lack of anti-cheat, as you can confirm from the information in the following link:

Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it.

Apparently, they have not reactivated Cross-Play for the Microsoft Store version of the game on PC so far, but it should work without any issues with the rest of the platforms, so don't worry.

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

Hello sleepyw1ll,

Yes, you should be able to play ARK with your friend on an Xbox if you purchase it from the Microsoft Store on your PC. ARK: Survival Evolved supports cross-platform play between Xbox and Windows 10 platforms.

Thank you,
