If I own Ark: Survival Evolved on PS5, do I need to buy Ark: Survival Ascended?

What other platforms will Ark: Survival Ascended be available on?

Ark: Survival Ascended will launch not only on PC and PlayStation but also on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. Like with the PlayStation 4 limitations, it won’t be available for Xbox One, though, as it’s too outdated for the graphics.
