ARK Dedicated Server Wiki

68 guides to help you master ARK

ARK: Survival Evolved (ASE) and ARK: Survival Ascended (ASA) use different server apps and content. Choose the edition before opening hosting plans or a server directory.

ARK has two server products with different apps, maps, mod delivery, and operating-system expectations. Start by choosing the edition; then use the shared guides only where the page explicitly covers both.

Edition check: โ€œARK SEโ€ normally means Survival Evolved (ASE), not Survival Ascended. Do not use an ASA _WP map, CurseForge mod, or server app on an ASE instance.
