Tier: Free · Small20–40 players · active Discord
Medium or Large tier. Room to scale without reprovisioning. Upgrade mid-month and you only pay the difference for the days left in your cycle.
Tier: Medium · LargeBig worlds + big builds
X-Large tier. Generous RAM and world-backup automation so you can risk-take on the build.
Tier: X-Large100+ players · 24/7 operation
XX-Large or a Dedicated Server. Full-machine isolation, white-glove onboarding, and an engineer on Discord for launch day.
Tier: XX-Large · DedicatedSideload your own mods.
ARK Survival has an active modding scene and your server is yours to modify. FTP is included on paid plans, so you upload the mod files yourself and they persist across restarts. We do not install, update or troubleshoot mod content, and there is no mod picker in the dashboard for this title.
Four steps. Five minutes.
From checkout to endpoint. Every step engineered to be fast and recoverable.

Dashboard access provisioned
Server start/stop/restart, FTP access, live player count where the game supports it, and log files — all in one place.
