Latest ARK News and Updates

Ahead of the arrival of Ark: Survival Evolved's next expansion Genesis: Part 2 in March, one of the action-adventure game's community creators has been busy crafting an impressive, all-encompassing mod that adds just, oh, so many things to its dino-filled world. Alongside a bunch of other new content, the mod ushers in an economy system, new creatures, weapons, and armour. The new 'GG economy' mod by creator Gamegods2021 brings a system Ark players can use in servers which is based around tokens. The idea is that you need to earn tokens which can then be used to obtain things like weapons, armour, potions, items, and structures. The mod's description doesn't go into detail about all the ways this currency is earned, but it does note that tokens aren't "meant to be obtained rapidly" and that how you choose to spend them is "strategic". Plus, servers with certain settings can tweak the rate at which tokens are accrued. Alongside the economy system itself, the mod adds new creatures which drop currency when they're felled, with some "breedable VR and ghost variants", as well as some wyverns and other critters from another of Studio Wildcard's games, Atlas.
