ARK: Ultimate Mobile Addition could be great for those with access
A nice addition that isn't universally compatible
ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition is a opportunity for new and existing fans to experience the fun and often brutal elements of ARK: Survival Evolved and its numerous expansions. I was a little disappointed to discover that the game isn't compatible with my Android phone, but presumably the title needs the latest hardware to run smoothly.
For those who have access, you can try it out ARK for free is an attractive benefit, and it would be nice to have access to a similar experience on PC and console. Although it may not have the graphical advances that ARK: Ascended Survival gifts, ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition It's a nice addition to the lineup.
