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 Ark: Survival Evolved experience plus five massive expansion packs.
If you're a fan of dinosaur-infested island survival adventures, and you've already conquered Ark: Survival Evolved, then prepare for a new challenge. 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 unique twist: dinosaurs! In Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, you'll be stranded, battling both prehistoric creatures and other players, evolving from primitive tools to advanced weaponry and commanding your own dinosaur army. Your goal? To conquer this tropical paradise.
More Than Just Dinosaurs
What sets Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition apart? It's the inclusion of five expansive DLC packs: Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2. This massive amount of content, according to developer Studio Wildcard, translates to thousands of hours of additional gameplay. While performance on older devices remains to be seen, the sheer scale of content is impressive.
For newcomers to the Ark universe, don't worry! Plenty of resources are available to guide you. Check out Dave Aubrey's survival tips for Ark: Survival Evolved to avoid becoming dino-chow!
