What is ARK Survival Evolved
Renting a ARK Survival Evolved Game Server
With a ARK Survival Evolved server you can have your own world with your own rules. You can fully configure your server how you want with your own rules, set your admins and configuration values. We support all both on the steam workshop and manual uploads which can be done by either our game control panel or full FTP access. Your server can have a password added to make it private and your local computer does not need to be on for others to play. We only utilise the best networks and all servers have powerful DDoS protection.ARK Survival Evolved Game Description
As a man or woman stranded naked, freezing and starving on the shores of a mysterious island called ARK, you must hunt, harvest resources, craft items, grow crops, research technologies, and build shelters to withstand the elements. Use your cunning and resources to kill or tame the leviathan dinosaurs and other primeval creatures roaming the land, and team up with or prey on hundreds of other players to survive, dominate... and escape!
