Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, a new iteration of the popular survival game, is launching on mobile devices! The release date is set for December 18th, hitting iOS and (hopefully) Android. This isn't just a simple port; Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition boasts the original game's map plus five expansion packs: Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2.
If you're a fan of open-world survival games and haven't experienced the dinosaur-infested thrill of Ark: Survival Evolved, or if you're simply ready for another adventure, this is your chance. The game throws you onto a tropical island teeming with dinosaurs and other players. You'll progress from primitive tools to advanced weaponry and command your own dinosaur army in a battle for dominance.
This enhanced mobile edition significantly expands upon the original experience. Studio Wildcard, the porting developer, promises thousands of hours of gameplay across the included expansions. While performance on older devices remains to be seen, the sheer volume of content is impressive.
For newcomers to the Ark universe, fear not! Numerous guides are available to help you survive the island and avoid becoming dinosaur fodder. Check out Dave Aubrey's survival tips for Ark: Survival Evolved to get a head start!
