ark: survival evolved mobile launchThe mobile spin-off of Studio Wildcard’s dino-taming sandbox game ARK: Survival Evolved has officially launched on Android and iOS. The mobile was developed in collaboration with War Drum Studios, and, according to the official press release, promises to be the same game but designed specifically for handheld gaming.

“Designed and developed by War Drum Studios, ARK: Survival Evolved mobile is free-to-play and puts the dino-taming adventure in the palm of your hand, letting you join forces with tens of thousands of other mobile survivors. On phones and tablets, ARK: Survival Evolved is the same multiplayer game loved on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac and Linux with the entire mysterious island to explore, 80+ dinosaurs and primeval creatures to tame and train, crafting, building, and more! The major difference is ARK: Survival Evolved on mobile is free-to-play with more accessible gameplay developed specifically for on-the-go dinosaur fun!”

Of course, like most free-to-play mobile games, you’ll have to deal with ads. For players who opt to go ad-free, Studio Wildcard is offering a subscription service called Primal Pass. “Primal Pass, gives survivors access to an ad-free experience with reserved server slots, free gifts, and more,” says the studio. “Additionally, survivors can acquire optional upgrades using Ancient Amber, a new material found throughout the island that allows players to obtain certain buffs for extended periods of time, build unique crafting structures and even resurrect your favorite pet dinosaur back from the dead!”

There’s also a new launch trailer which you’ll find after the jump along with the official mobile trailer. You can also head over to the ARK: Survival Evolved official site to learn more.
