Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, the highly anticipated mobile version of the popular survival game, is launching tomorrow, December 18th, on iOS and Android! This isn't just a simple port; it includes the original game plus five massive expansion packs.
If you're a fan of dinosaur-filled survival adventures and have already conquered Ark: Survival Evolved, get ready for a whole new experience. Announced earlier this year, Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition promises thousands of hours of gameplay.
For the uninitiated, Ark: Survival Evolved helped define the open-world survival genre, adding a prehistoric twist with its dinosaur inhabitants. In Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, you'll be stranded on a tropical island, battling both ferocious dinosaurs and other players. Progress from primitive tools to advanced weaponry and command your own army of trained dinosaurs in your quest for island domination.
More Than Just Dinosaurs
This mobile edition isn't just a re-release of the original game. It bundles in five expansion packs: Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2. This massive amount of content translates to an enormous amount of gameplay, according to developer Studio Wildcard. While performance on older devices remains to be seen, the sheer volume of content is impressive.
For newcomers to the Ark universe, don't worry! Plenty of helpful guides are available to ensure your survival. Check out Dave Aubrey's essential survival tips for Ark: Survival Evolved to avoid becoming a dinosaur snack!
