If you've been craving a survival adventure on a dinosaur-filled island and feel like you've exhausted all possibilities with Ark: Survival Evolved, then prepare to be thrilled. The highly anticipated Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition is set to launch tomorrow, December 18th, on iOS and, hopefully, on Android as well. This new version brings an exciting twist to the classic survival game that popularized the open-world survival genre alongside titles like Minecraft.
In Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, you'll find yourself stranded on a lush, tropical island teeming with dinosaurs. Your journey begins with primitive stone-age tools, but as you progress, you'll unlock advanced futuristic weaponry and the ability to train your own dinosaur army. It's a battle for supremacy on this prehistoric paradise, where you'll face off against both the island's wildlife and other players.
But what sets Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition apart? It's not just the original Ark: Survival Evolved experience; it's much more. You'll have access to five expansive new packs: Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2. This addition promises thousands of hours of fresh gameplay, as stated by the porting developer Studio Wildcard. While the performance on older devices remains a question, the content is undoubtedly substantial.
