ARK: Survival Evolved takes on the survival genre with a unique blend of
emergent multiplayer cooperation and competition. Players awake naked and starving on
the beach of a mysterious island among a herd of other confused humans. On ARK, they
must then hunt, harvest, craft, research technology, and build shelters to protect
against scorching days, freezing nights, volatile weather systems, dangerous wildlife,
and potential enemies. Use cunning strategy and tactics to tame and ride the many
dinosaurs and other primeval creatures roaming the dynamic, persistent ecosystems across
land, sea, air, and even underground. Build your character’s strengths and gain items,
skills, and pet creatures using in-depth role-playing systems. Start a tribe with
hundreds of other players to survive and dominate competing tribes…and ultimately
discover the ARK’s true purpose.
