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 simple port; it includes the original game and a massive five expansion packs.

If you're a fan of open-world survival games and haven't had enough dinosaur action, then get ready! Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition throws you onto a prehistoric island teeming with dinosaurs and other players. You'll progress from primitive tools to advanced weaponry and command your own dinosaur army in a battle for island dominance.

This ultimate edition distinguishes itself by offering not only the core Ark: Survival Evolved experience, but also five expansive DLC packs: Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, and Genesis Parts 1 & 2. Studio Wildcard promises thousands of hours of gameplay, a claim that seems entirely plausible given the sheer amount of added content. While performance on older devices remains to be seen, the sheer scale of this mobile release is impressive.

For newcomers to the Ark universe, don't worry! Plenty of helpful guides are available to ensure your survival. Check out Dave Aubrey's expert survival tips for Ark: Survival Evolved to avoid becoming dino-chow!
