ARK Summer Bash 2022 - What to Expect [UPDATED]

Summer has begun, so we should be looking forward to the start of ARK Summer Bash 2022 soon, here's what we can expect from the event.

Update

Summer Bash 2022 has launched. On July 1, the developers launched the next edition of the event without prior announcements. It will last until July 15.

Due to the recent release of Fjordur DLC and the Wildcard's focus on ARK 2, this time the event is much smaller. However, you can still count on a few novelties and nice bonuses.

The game will feature seven new colors of wild creatures: Dino Light Red, Yellow, Dino Albino, PowderBlue, Turquoise, Lavender and Light Green.

You will receive special bonuses on each type of server.

  1. Official servers - 3x more experience points, 3x faster harvesting, imprinting and breeding speed, 0.5x smaller mating interval, 1.5x faster Hexagon growth.
  2. Small tribes servers - 4.5x more experience points, 4.5x faster harvest and imprint speed, 4x faster reproduction speed, 0.5x smaller mating interval, 1.5x faster Hexagon growth.
  3. ARKPocalypse - 5x more experience points, 5x faster harvest, imprint and reproduction speed, 0.5x smaller mating interval, 1.5x faster Hexagon growth.
  4. Conquest - 5x more experience points, 5x faster harvesting, imprinting and breeding speed, 0.5x smaller mating interval, 1.5x faster Hexagon growth.

Original message

Wildcard focuses primarily on ARK 2 but it doesn't mean that its predecessor has been abandoned. The developers continue to enrich the game with new attractions in the form of cyclical events.

One of them, namely ARK: Summer Bash 2022 should start soon. We provide find information about the probable start date of the event and what it actually entails.

When might Summer Bash 2022 take place?

When predicting the start date of Summer Bash 2022 we have to rely on the previous editions of the event. Wildcard has not shared any official information.

However, all previous events of this kind started in late June and early July. The 2019 edition kicked off on July 2, the 2020 edition on June 25, and last year the event began on June 30.

We can therefore expect Summer Bash 2022 to begin within the next few days. The event should also last three weeks.

What to expect at Summer Bash 2022?

Every Summer Bash 2022 is connected with a whole bunch of free gifts for the players. Every year, fans got attractive bonuses increasing the amount of XP gained and modifying the speed of individual actions related to husbandry.

In addition, wild creatures received special colors, and players could use new emotes and dozens of summer skins. Miniature versions of dinosaurs in the form of Chibi-Pets were also available as a gift.

Importantly, each edition of Summer Bash enables us to get skins, emoticons and miniatures from previous years. So if you missed the event last year or even earlier, Summer Bash 2022 will enable you to catch up.

For now we can only wait for the announcement of the start of the event and get ready for summer relaxation in ARK.
