Studio Wildcard has announced that ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition is coming to mobile devices on both iOS and Android. The mobile game adaptation brings the full-scale adventure of ARK to mobile devices with all 5 expansion packs.
The mobile edition will be designed and developed by Grove Street Games. Players can expect expansive worlds to explore, the challenge of taming over 150 dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures, engaging in multiplayer tribe dynamics, and the intricate art of crafting and building. Initially launching with the ARK Island and Scorched Earth maps, all expansions will be available by the end of 2025.
Thomas Williamson, CEO of Grove Street Games, highlighted the technological prowess behind the game:
“The use of UE4 engine enhancements allows us to deliver a vast adventure that fits right in your palm. Bringing all ARK maps into one mobile game has been a major goal, and we’re dedicated to delivering an incredible experience.”
Furthermore, ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition mobile, will have players stranded in a harsh, unforgiving world—naked, freezing, and starving on a mysterious island. Their survival depends on their ability to hunt, gather resources, craft tools, cultivate crops, and construct shelters.
Beyond survival, players must employ skill and strategy to dominate the environment, mastering the art of hunting, taming, breeding, and riding the diverse array of dinosaurs and primeval creatures that inhabit the ARK. Whether navigating primordial jungles or exploring the futuristic tek-chambers of an interstellar starship, every expansive environment presents challenges to conquer in both online multiplayer and single player modes.
