Buy Ark: Survival Ascended PC key

ARK: Survival Ascended is a dinosaur survival game set on a mysterious island and other worlds. You design a Survivor, form a tribe and tame, train, breed and ride dinosaurs and other primeval creatures. Manage food, water, temperature and weather as you harvest resources, build, farm crops and explore to uncover the nature of The Island and the worlds beyond.

Survive and build

You expand outward from your starting point, building structures and customizing their visual designs as you explore. The game includes new structures and items, creatures, redesigned user interfaces, creature pathfinding, Wild Babies, Photo Mode, new camera and map systems, and a tracking system.

Worlds and creatures

The game includes The Island, Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, ARK Genesis Part 1, ARK Genesis Part 2 and other worlds. The Island, Scorched Earth, Aberration and The Center are available, with further expansion worlds to be added over time. Its ecosystem lets you tame, train, breed and ride dinosaurs and other primeval creatures.

A reactive environment

The game’s worlds have been recreated using Unreal Engine 5, with dynamic Global Illumination and detailed mesh streaming. Dynamic water responds to creatures moving through it, while interactive foliage reacts to characters, explosions, projectiles and physics objects. Trees can fall into other trees and disturb foliage as they come down; moving creatures shift the grass, and demolished buildings break apart and interact with grass and water.

Multiplayer and mods

Online tribes can bring players together across different gaming platforms. Public online multiplayer supports up to 70 players, private sessions support up to 8, and local split-screen supports 2 players. Cross-platform modding lets you download and play player-created maps, creatures, items and game modes through a dedicated in-game mod collection.
