ARK: Survival Ascended Client v91.23 Patch Notes (24th July 2026)
A focused patch addresses audio bugs, breeding problems, and several quality-of-life friction points across Genesis Part 1 and the wider game.
Studio Wildcard has pushed Client v91.23 to address a handful of audio bugs and structural issues that have been nagging players since the last major update.
The standout fixes here are practical rather than flashy. Megachelon breeding in Genesis Part 1's Ocean biome now works, which matters if you've been trying to raise these creatures in that specific environment. Market Hexagons will no longer vanish when your listed items sell while you're offline. A frustrating loss that caught several players off guard. The Bloodstalker desync issue after relogging gets a fix too, along with corrections to ship steering and foundation placement on skiffs.
On the audio front, Pteranodon attack sounds no longer output to a single channel, and simultaneous Skin emote audio with HLNA voice lines have been separated. These are the kind of polish touches that improve immersion without reshaping how you play. The full list includes fixes for bounty board exploits, Dodo Ball mission timer corrections, and non-dedicated server adjustments.
