This ambitious survival game emerges from Early Access fully featured but just as in danger of toppling in on itself as ever before.

Unforgiving difficulty and atmosphere are the main characteristics of dino-survival sim Ark: Survival Evolved.

A bloated, grindy mess, but so packed with options that a better game is hidden inside it.
