This year's Extra LIFE Charity campaign for ARK: Survival Ascended is in full swing. With over $136,000 raised in donations (as of November 8, 2025), four creature TLCs ("Tender Loving Care" updates) have been released by Studio Wildcard so far.

The community has decided: The winner of the latest Community Creature Vote for ARK: Survival Ascended is the Palaeoctopus – a prehistoric octopus that will soon appear on Genesis Part 1 thanks to its unique features. The update is currently scheduled for April 2026 or later.

Something immense stirs in the frozen plains of Arat Prime. Among ancient machines, red element, and the last remnants of human hubris rises a being that makes even titans tremble: the Ossidon.
