Snail, Inc., the powerhouse behind the ARK franchise, is kicking off a massive expansion of their dino-packed universe. With the launch of ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition and two epic updates for ARK: Survival Ascended, the company is doubling down on its mission to deliver the ultimate survival experience to players everywhere. From mobile adventurers to hardcore PC and console fans, there’s something for everyone in this latest round of releases.
ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition – Survival On the Go
Now live on the App Store® and Google Play Store™, ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition is bringing the massive survival sandbox experience to mobile devices with surprising finesse. This free-to-download adaptation packs a punch, featuring content from ARK: Survival Evolved and its legendary Expansion Packs (Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and both Genesis chapters). Fan-favorite maps like Ragnarok also make the cut, ensuring that players on the go won’t miss a beat.
Mobile players can tame, train, and battle over 150 dinosaurs, build sprawling bases, and dive into multiplayer mayhem—all in the palm of their hand. Adding extra fuel to the hype is the ARK Pass, a subscription service that unlocks exclusive perks, monthly bonuses, and access to all expansions, both current and future.
And it’s already a hit. In just 24 hours, Ultimate Mobile Edition racked up over 1 million downloads and landed on Apple’s prestigious “New Games We Love” list. With its seamless design and rich content, it’s clear Snail Games is determined to make ARK accessible to every corner of the globe.
ARK: Extinction Ascended – Titans, Dreadnoughtus, and a Finale Worth the Wait
For those on PC and consoles, ARK: Survival Ascended has just dropped a game-changing update with Extinction Ascended. This epic conclusion returns players to Earth, tasking them with toppling massive Titans while uncovering the secrets of the ARKs’ origins.
The update also introduces the Dreadnoughtus, a colossal community-voted dino designed to dominate the battlefield. Its massive frame and destructive abilities are set to shake up late-game strategies in a big way. And with new structures, mechanics, and creatures to tame, Extinction Ascended is keeping Survival Ascended fresh for veteran players.
Bob’s Tall Tales: Wasteland War – A Story-Driven Survival Showdown
Rounding out the excitement is the final chapter of Bob’s Tall Tales: Wasteland War. This narrative-driven expansion pushes boundaries with its modular BattleRigs, boasting over 10,000 customization options for players looking to build the ultimate survival machine. Add in an adorable-but-deadly Armadoggo companion, wasteland-inspired weapons, and structures, and you’ve got a recipe for endless replayability.
The numbers speak for themselves: with a 40% discount during Steam’s Winter Sale, ARK: Survival Ascended saw a 62% spike in daily active players. If you’ve been on the fence, now’s the perfect time to dive in.
