Pick a map, install mods in 1 click, work out the RAM you need and connect to your server.
Your ARK server deploys in a couple of minutes and is managed from the panel. ARK is resource-hungry, so the plan matters.
Pick a map and mods
- Map: The Island, Ragnarok, Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, Fjordur…
- 1-click mods: from Steam Workshop (ARK: Survival Evolved) or CurseForge (ARK: Survival Ascended).
- Cluster: you can link several servers to transfer dinos and items between maps.
How much RAM do I need?
- Small maps or few players → 6–8 GB.
- Demanding maps or lots of mods → 12–16 GB.
If it falls short, remember you can upgrade your plan at any time.
Connect
Grab the IP:port from the panel. In ARK, the most reliable way is to open the in-game console and type open IP:port, or find your server in the unofficial list.
Mods not loading or want to set up a cluster? Open a ticket and we'll dial it in.
