Patch notes are shown in English, as Studio Wildcard published them.

The claws are almost ready, Survivors.
We’ve already shown you a more expressive Therizinosaurus in the wild, and how tamed Therizinos will begin to reflect the harvesting roles they play within your tribe.
But we haven’t talked about how those changes will feel once you’re in the saddle.
Getting around the ARKs will feel a little smoother, with improved movement and a new bounding hop that helps it tackle tougher terrain.
And, naturally, those infamous claws have a few new tricks. Alongside smoother harvesting, Therizinosaurus now has a powerful new claw swipe for when nearby creatures need a sharp reminder about personal space.
And you won’t have much longer to wait. On September 30, the Therizinosaurus TLC arrives alongside the Unreal Engine 5.8 upgrade, Gargantar, and Cerberax, bringing plenty to discover across the ARKs.

Expire servers are temporary servers across the network that will eventually be removed, and you can find them by searching for "Expire" in the session filter.
These servers will be online until 10 am PST / 1 pm EST on September 18th. We're preemptively using our allocation for future maps to host some additional sessions that players can travel onto to farm, tame, and experience the newest content Gameplay. The same transfer restrictions apply in that you are only able to download your character, but you can freely take anything off. This is to help reduce load off some of the other servers, or provide players an option for those who just want to jump onto a new map temporarily.
Please note that these servers will no longer exist after 10 am PST / 1 pm EST on September 18th, so if you intend to use them, remember to transfer your items/creatures/characters off before that date, as nothing will be saved beyond that time period.



Conquest, introduced to ARK: Survival Ascended by Snail Games, focuses on large-scale PvP, with increased rates, and other changes listed below. The increased rates will allow tribes to set up and establish themselves quickly and enable them to rebuild after potential losses instead of being wiped completely.
The official Conquest servers are open for PC, Xbox and PlayStation.
If you need any support during the Conquest season, join the Conquest Enforcement's Discord.
Conquest Season 8 details:
Total of 18 maps, all Genesis Part 1
Cluster A: 12 servers that had transfers enabled with Classic before they shut down.
Cluster B: 6 servers with transfers only enabled between those 6 servers for 2 weeks. Transfers between Cluster A and Cluster B will open on July 17th at 10 AM PT.
5x Rates
Tek is enabled with the exception of:
Tek Grenade
Tapejara Tek Saddle
Megalodon Tek Saddle
Rock Drake Tek Saddle
Mosasur Tek Saddle
Tek Railgun
Map: all 18 maps will become Genesis Part 1



This weekend, the Official Network will be receiving bonus rates! It will be active until Monday, September 14.
PVP/PVE: 2x Harvesting, Taming, and Experience, and Breeding
Small Tribes: 4.5x Harvesting, Taming, and Experience + 4x Breeding
