Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition has a new name, and is set to release tomorrow

Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, the highly anticipated mobile version of the popular survival game, is launching tomorrow, December 18th, on iOS and Android! This isn't just a port; it includes the original game and a massive five expansion packs.

If you're a fan of dinosaur-infested island survival adventures and have already conquered Ark: Survival Evolved, prepare for a new challenge. Announced earlier this year, Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition promises thousands of hours of gameplay.

For the uninitiated, Ark: Survival Evolved helped define the open-world survival genre by adding dinosaurs to the mix. In Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition, you'll be stranded, fighting both prehistoric creatures and other players for dominance. Your journey will take you from primitive tools to advanced weaponry and a personal dinosaur army.

More Than Just Dinosaurs

This isn't simply a mobile port of the original game. Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition boasts five expansion packs: Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2, significantly expanding the gameplay experience. While the sheer amount of content is impressive, the performance on older devices remains to be seen.

For newcomers to the Ark universe, fear not! Numerous guides are available to help you survive your first encounter with the island's inhabitants. Consult expert survival tips to avoid becoming a dinosaur's next meal!
