Studio Wildcard has released a patch for the PS4 version of Ark. This latest patch brings the otter and the phoenix to Ark as well as some optimizations and improvements to help the game run better in general.
Many people may have a hard time taming the new Phoenix though, while this last patch does contain some fixes it also breaks cross ark traveling for some people. Looks like a fix for that will not be happening until at least Monday.

It’s very frustrating, but there is a work around. Go to a beacon and transfer to a new server, when the loading screen comes up, quit Ark. Open Ark and connect to the map that you wanted to transfer to, it will prompt you to download your survivor as usual.
I know that’s not really convenient but as of now it is the only way to transfer between servers.
