ARK: Survival Ascended Meets POWER RANGERS: Unlocking the Power of Mods and UGC for Gamers

February 6, 2025 —  CurseForge, one of the world’s largest repositories of mods and addons for video games, today announced its continued collaboration with Hasbro, a leading toy and game company, to bring new POWER RANGERS experiences into ARK: Survival Ascended – the critically acclaimed survival game by Studio Wildcard.

With over 460 million mods downloaded across consoles and PCs, ARK: Survival Ascended has embraced user-generated content (UGC) since its launch. Through a partnership with CurseForge, the game now supports cross-platform modding, broadening the reach of mods and enhancing the gameplay experience for players across all platforms.

In June 2024, the POWER RANGERS franchise made its debut in ARK: Survival Ascended with the ARK x POWER RANGERS Premium Mod. Developed by pioneering UGC game studio and publisher Look North World, this premium mod has reached thousands of downloads as players transformed into their favorite POWER RANGER in-game.

Starting February 6th, ARK: Survival Ascended players can continue to elevate their POWER RANGERS experience with new features in the ARK x Power Rangers Wave Premium Mod, including six character skins—Green Ranger, White Ranger, Lord Zedd, Rita Repulsa, Goldar, Alpha 5, and Putty—with unique emotes available for each character.

The update also introduces four Zord creature skins: White Tigerzord (Thylacoleo), Titanus (Bronto), Green Dragonzord (Giga), and Megazord (MEK), alongside six new weapons, such as the Green Dagger, White Saba Sword, and Zedd Staff.

“With thousands of mods downloaded and over seven figures in revenue, we’re seeing clear proof of a powerful new economy fueled by UGC—one that brings limitless entertainment for gamers, transformational reach and engagement for brands, and exciting opportunities for creators and studios of all sizes,” commented Uri Marchand, CEO of Overwolf. 

“We believe in the power of UGC and have been impressed by the incredible response to the ARK x POWER RANGERS Premium Mod launch and the enthusiasm of the Power Rangers and gaming community,” said Eugene Evans, SVP of Digital Strategy and Licensing at Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro. “This license partnership continues our strategy of bringing our world class IP to new audiences through innovative experiences, alongside our ongoing internal development.”

“At Look North World, we’re always exploring fresh ways for the community to connect with both beloved brands and our own original creations. With the ARK x Power Rangers Wave 2 Premium Mod, we aim to offer players a unique blend of nostalgic and modern gameplay, filled with detailed cosmetics and epic game styles that bring iconic IPs to life like never before,” commented Alex Seropian, Founder and CEO of Look North World.
