Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition's Extinction expansion pack launches today

It's the end of the world as we know it

Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition's Extinction expansion pack launches today
  • Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition's latest expansion is here
  • Extinction is set on a ravaged earth, and features both proto-Arks and vast cityscapes
  • Take on colossal titans that'll challenge even the most veteran of survivors

Ready to face Extinction? Well, not literally. But you certainly can in Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition's newest expansion pack of the same name! The Ark Extinction Expansion Pack offers a host of new creatures to battle and tame, a map and even more additional content for this mobile adaptation of the hit dino survival.

Set on a ravaged Earth in the distant future, Extinction offers the climax of the overarching Ark meta-storyline. Now, you'll discover not only the ruins of what came before, but also perhaps find out who created the Arks themselves and why as you explore desolate cityscapes and proto-arks alike.

Of course, it's not just the typical threats you've faced that you'll have to contend with as the Extinction map is also infested by the enormous techno-organic monsters known as Titans, which will offer even the most seasoned of survivors a challenge to take them down.

For both fans of the overarching plot of Ark and those looking for a challenge alike, Extinction should prove an exciting addition. Grove Street Games, despite facing a number of setbacks off the back of their disastrous port of GTA: Definitive Edition to mainline platforms, has seemingly clawed back a lot of goodwill with over four million downloads of Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition.

While the Extinction map is available to purchase separately, subscribers to the monthly Ark Pass will already have access to it and all forthcoming additions to Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition.

Certainly, Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition is a major overhaul compared to the previous mobile version of this hit survival multiplayer experience. But a lot of the same advice that applied to that still does for UME, so why not check out our guide to getting started with Ark: Survival Evolved if this is your first time taking on the Arks?
