ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition Releases Third Expansion, Extinction

ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition has officially launched its third major expansion map — Extinction — now available on mobile via the Google Play Store. This new chapter plunges players into a dystopian, fractured version of Earth, wrapping up the core ARK storyline while introducing a bold new layer of survival challenges.

A Dark, Dangerous World Awaits

Extinction marks the climactic conclusion to the ARK saga, offering a stark evolution from previous maps like Scorched Earth and Aberration. The planet is a desolate wasteland—rivers have dried up, ecosystems have collapsed, and the remnants of civilization are overrun by chaos. As a lone survivor, your mission is to piece together the truth behind the origins of the ARK system itself.

This is a world teeming with danger at every turn. The environment is saturated with Element, giving rise to terrifying hybrid creatures—some mechanical, some organic. Among them, robotic and bio-engineered Rexes patrol the ruins, making survival more intense than ever. The atmosphere is chilling, the stakes are high, and the lore runs deep.

New Features & Balance Updates

Alongside the release of Extinction, several gameplay improvements have been introduced:

  • Thick Skin Insulation Buff: A new survival enhancement that helps players endure the harsh environmental conditions of the map.
  • Improved Creature AI in Multiplayer PVE: Creatures will now move dynamically from their spawn points, reducing camp-based griefing and encouraging exploration.
  • Light Source Limitation: To prevent excessive or spammy base builds, the number of deployable light sources has been restricted, promoting fairer gameplay.

How to Access the Extinction Map

ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition includes all major expansions, including Genesis Part 1 and Part 2. Players can choose to purchase the full bundle or opt for individual maps and features.

If you're subscribed to the monthly Ark Pass, you already have access to the Extinction expansion — no extra cost. Plus, all upcoming expansions will be included automatically for subscribers, making it the best value for dedicated players.
