About ARK Survival Evolved
In ARK: Survival Evolved, you wake up on a mysterious island filled with dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures.

You’ll start with nothing but your wits, gathering resources to craft tools, build shelters, and survive against both ancient creatures and other players. What makes ARK truly special is its massive multiplayer experience. You can team up with friends to build massive bases, create powerful tribes, and explore dangerous caves together. The game features an incredible variety of dinosaurs and creatures, each with unique abilities that you can use to your advantage. Whether you’re breeding the perfect battle raptor, farming with your trusty Triceratops, or defending your base with automated turrets, there’s always something exciting to do in this prehistoric world.
