ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition for iOS & Google Play coming in Holiday 2024

[GroveStreetJordan]

Studio Wildcard is excited to announce that ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition is coming to
mobile! This new on-the-go adaptation of ARK, coming to both iOS and Android, is planned
for a launch in Holiday 2024, and is a massive mobile dino-adventure which will include the
original full-scale PC game plus all the massive ARK expansion packs - Scorched Earth,
Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2, plus the fan-favorite Ragnarok
community-created map and more - ensuring thousands of gameplay hours.

Designed and developed by Grove Street Games, ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition for
mobile is the same online survival experience contained in the PC and console versions of
ARK, with all graphics and features intact, including gigantic worlds to explore, tame and
train over 150 dinosaurs and primeval creatures, engage in multiplayer tribe dynamics, and
of course, crafting and building! The title will launch initially with the ARK Island and
Scorched Earth expansion map, with all maps available by the end of 2025.

“The game utilizes huge UE4 engine improvements, delivering an expansive adventure that
fits in the palm of your hand,” said Thomas Williamson, CEO, Grove Street Games. “Putting
the entire collection of ARK maps into one on-the-go game has been a huge request and
we’re working to deliver an amazing experience.”

The ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition is completely updated and optimized with every
improvement made since the launch of the original game in 2015! In ARK players are
stranded naked, freezing and starving on a mysterious island, where they must hunt,
harvest, craft items, grow crops, and build shelters to survive. They use skill and cunning to
kill, tame, breed, and ride the dinosaurs and primeval creatures living in the ARK. From
primordial island jungles progressing to the futuristic tek-chambers of an interstellar
starship, every sprawling environment is here for you to conquer either online or
singleplayer.

I believe when i see it... 

[Danielwf]

Am i hallucinating?

[Agamon]

Wow. I’m very excited!
 

incidentally, is there any chance you can add controller support? It gets a little tiring using touch in very long sessions. (Ideally, a hybrid between Xbox & iOS control schemes: touch elements would still work, you could just shoot and run and stuff with the controller)

You should get a backbone controller works for the old version!

Any chance of the non dedicated server issues being fixed. Been going on for over a week now. We are unable to play with friends on non dedicated servers.

[Telkr]

Is it just gonna be your paid maps or will you guys add the community made maps?

[JFArk]

I can't wait for our new game to arrive!

And some questions, will the game be paid or free? (base game) And will the game be available on mid-range Android devices? (4-8 RAM and Snapdragon 700 family)

But regardless, I will play this new version!

🤩

What holiday is this? October 31st?

[UKnowMeByCarson]

How can i get access to beta test the game? I would like to find and get many of the major gamebreaking exploits fixed before the public release if possible.

Нарешті дочекались, буду чекати з нетерпінням коли з'явиться в Google play і надіюсь на хорошу оптимізацію

The term holiday in this context is always around Christmas time of year.

[Darklizard2006]

[Dinosquad3]

Is this going to work on Android 12 and up ? Is this intended to be the fix for that issue ? 

[Aarondp]

I can't wait for the game to come out.

But one question, the game for which iPhones will be available from what model and also from iPads

[Monshops]

Will Ark mobile receive a update/updates to deal with the problems and exploits in the coming weeks/months or will that happen when the expansion starts happening?

[AppleMechanism]

Will this cost money? I already spent money on the game and the ps4 and I don't wanna have to spend more on a dlc

[ChineseMesher]

I just want to see Jordan make some new video walkthroughs …it’s been like 3 years, bro. 😘

[Connororochi]

what are the basic requirements to run the redesigned Ark Mobile??

[travisthenics]

I have been waiting for this news for soooo long!! Thank you, my brothers and I cannot wait!!

will the touch controls have customisable options?? and please confirm we are keeping the left/right side of screen tap to run/look around!! It's the best I've ever seen/used for a mobile PVP game.

(Just one thing: if in settings you could make an adjustment... so that we can allow single tap and hold to instantly sprint!) So we who dont use controllers can still sprint without a slight delay (when double tapping, like in current ARK Mobile?

that would be SO GOOD!!!! thanks heaps🥳

No aguanto sacalo ya! 😭

Dear Jordan,

I would like to introduce myself as the best Ark Mobile cheat developer! 
Me and my partner Mr Daddy Li are greatly looking forward to cooperate and beta test with current Ultimate Survivor Edition Ark developers for further troubleshooting, debugging and patching weak places found through your game at current state, in addition stopping and eliminating any subsequent cheat extensions development, except our own. Please be benevolent for contacting me and sharing the source code! 
Thank you!
