The Power Rangers in this mod appear to be based on the original series, with Zords and Power Weapons that closely resemble the ones from the show. Given their existing ties to prehistoric creatures, the Rangers fit well into the setting of Ark: Survival Ascended. However, it remains unclear how their unique abilities will transfer into the game.
CurseForge is a mod repository that currently hosts over 500,000 mods and supports almost 89 games, including Ark: Survival Ascended. Since its launch, the game has seen over 190 million mods downloaded on both PC and console platforms.
Uri Marchand, CEO of Overwolf, expressed excitement about the collaboration, stating that it allows individual creators to engage with iconic franchises like never before. He believes that this mod will not only engage gamers but also elevate the Power Rangers brand within the gaming community. Marchand sees it as a signal to other brands that user-generated content in games is the way forward.
Eugene Evans, SVP of digital strategy and licensing at Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro, emphasized the importance of working with the modding community. He stated that collaborating with CurseForge to bring Power Rangers to Ark: Survival Ascended showcases their commitment to bringing iconic brands to life for gamers worldwide. Evans also highlighted their strategy of working with creative teams from around the world and deepening partnerships with publishers like Look North World to grow their digital games portfolio through licensing and internal development.
