Donations over $2,500 USD will be added to the ARK permanently as “Extra Life Superfan”
As we reach various donation goals, we will increase the Official Server Network rates. If you’re an ARK: Survival Evolved Mobile survivor, you’re in luck! Our friends over at Grove Street Games will be matching our final rates for at least 24 hours at the close of our stream at 10am PST on Sunday, November 8th. We’ll be extending the event past the regular 24 hours as a gesture towards those with slower connections who may be downloading for a portion of the livestream.
If you are interested in joining our team to help raise money, we’d love to have you! Check out this link for more information on how to get started. All donations go to the Extra Life organization and contribute to raising the Official Network rates!
For specialized game modes, we’ll be using the rates below:
Tender Loving Care 3
November 7th also marks the date that the Tender Loving Care 3 update will be reaching PC, Xbox, and PS4. Aside from the dedicated reworks of the Stego and Mammoth you may have seen in prior Community Crunches, we’ve added a bunch of Quality of Life changes to make your time on the ARK more enjoyable. Check out the thread below for more information:
We’ll be keeping you up to date as we hit our donation goals and increase rates on the Official Network but we’d love for the entire community to come and hang out with us while we raise money for a great cause. Pop a squat in our Official Discord or hang out in our Twitch chat when the action starts.

ARK Chaos Creator
ARK Chaos Creator is a unique addition to the sponsorship program; this isn’t just a mod for ARK, the Chaos Creator mod will open a line from a twitch stream right to the game. Stream viewers can influence the game for the streamer either making things more difficult, giving them useful (Or sometimes ridiculously chaotic) gifts, or spawning a bunch of mayhem directly on top of them. There is also a version in the works to allow content creators to use channel points instead of bits if they choose.

EVO Event
Survivors on all platforms will be receiving a special Evolution Event on November 7th 10AM PST. See above for details on the Extra Life event and specifics on the rates.
