Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.Worth buying? Here’s what 300 Steam reviews actually say.
A dinosaur-taming battle royale with chaotic PvP, but the playerbase is nearly dead, official servers are gone, and the 2022 relaunch upset veterans. Skip it unless you can bring friends.
Great for
ARK fans with a group of friends who want fast, chaotic dino-taming PvP matches
Main risk
You can't find a match: servers are empty or down and lobbies rarely fill
