May fortune smile upon you, brave Survivors!<\/p>\n<p>ARK: Survival of the Fittest is a multiplayer online survival arena (M.O.S.A.) game that pits as many as 72 combatants against one another in spontaneous Hunger Games-style competitions within a closed battlefield, where a continually shrinking \u201cring of death\u201d will push survivors into an epic final showdown with only one \u201cTribe\u201d making it out alive.<\/p>\n<p>Survivors can form one- to six-person tribes with the option to choose Unofficial (PC-hosted) and Official (Ranked) servers, and a variety of game-lengths and sizes in which to play. Players will start in the base forest environment introduced in the original ARK: Survival Evolved, with new environments and creatures introduced regularly as the game evolves. Dedicated eSport ranking, matchmaking, and tournament features make ARK: SotF readily accessible to all players. Each month 10 ranked players in each \u201cSurvivor League\u201d will be awarded a cash prize corresponding to their ranked placement. Rankings for these elite titles will be visible in real time on <a href=\"https:\/\/survivetheark.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">SurviveTheArk.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Studio Wildcard, the developer that brought gamers the definitive online dinosaur survival experience ARK: Survival Evolved, wants to you to jump in your dino saddle and prepare for the biggest fight of your life.
