ULTRA currently runs seven PVE servers for Ark
In order to connect to our servers just search ULTRA-ASA in the unofficial serverlist in game


The Island
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - The Island
The Island is a map included with the base game. It is the first known ARK and is the first map that follows with the storyline. It consists of multiple climatic and geological regions. There are five larger mountains in the north and plains in the south, while three large Obelisks form a triangle on the Island.


Valguero
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - Valguero
Valguero is a realm where medieval legend and ancient memory entwine, its rolling highlands and White Cliffs shadowed by crumbling relics long reclaimed by time. From frozen tundra reborn in a golden haze to lava rivers that carve through shadowed valleys, every biome tells a story of kingdoms risen and fallen, and of survivors daring to carve out their place among the ruins. Both beautiful and brutal, Valguero is a land that tests not only your strength, but the mark you'll leave behind.


Aberration
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - Aberration
Aberration places survivors on a damaged ARK, its internal atmosphere has leaked away, resulting in a harsh surface with intense radiation, and a plethora of lush biomes underground. With the maintenance systems of this ARK malfunctioning, the many hazards, creatures, and nature of the environment present a thrilling new world to explore and master.


Ragnarok
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - Ragnarok
Ragnarok adds several new creatures, such as the Ice Wyvern, Iceworm Male, Dire Polar Bear, and Griffin, as well as 4 new dungeon bosses. It's a whole new map that boasts an expansive 144 sq. kilometer environment, an active volcano, species from DLC Scorched Earth, and higher than average spawn rates.


Lost Colony
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - Lost Colony
THE END OF THE ARKS, THE GENESIS OF A NEW SAGA. Plunge through the icy heart of darkness as you reunite with old legends, while rekindling hope for the next generation. ARK: Lost Colony bridges the gap between Extinction and ARK 2 with the most ambitious narrative experience in the franchise's history. Your journey returns you to the beginning: Arat Prime, the site of humanity's final stand. You awaken in the Necrocene - a brutal, post-Cataclysmic era where the Earth's southern pole has been plunged into eternal night. Buried within the deep snow, the metropolis of the Lost Colony clings to existence beneath energy shields, powered by the radioactive warmth of Red Element. Survival here is an act of defiance against nature itself. This unnatural heat source keeps the Colony alive... only by repelling the Reseed Protocol, ensuring the Earth remains broken so that the Lost King may rule his corrupt kingdom.


Astraeos
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - Astraeos
Embark on an epic odyssey in the world of ARK with Astraeos, developed by Nekatus in partnership with Nitrado! Explore this vast, breathtaking map, steeped in Greek mythology, where majestic mountain ridges and marble cliffs meet pristine white sand beaches and a paradise of cherry blossoms. Spanning over 264 square kilometers, Astraeos is brimming with stunning scenery, ancient ruins, and sacred temples. Confront powerful new bosses, enhanced alpha dino variants with valuable loot, and a fearsome miniboss lurking within mysterious caves.


Genesis 1
Server address: ULTRA-ASA - Genesis 1
Awaken within a fractured virtual simulation - a forbidding world unlike anything you’ve seen before. ARK: Genesis Ascended Part 1 represents a story-oriented beginning in ARK’s epic saga of survival. With your holographic companion, HLN-A, you must overcome the simulation’s rigorous tests. Only by fighting, building, taming, and exploring will you uncover the dark secrets behind this place.
Genesis: Part 1 is a simulation across 5 distinct biomes in the form of mini maps: Bog, Arctic, Volcanic, Lunar and new with Ark Ascended: Dive into a massive, map-wide ocean biome built on a completely overhauled water physics system. Prepare for a true maritime experience with dynamic waves and realistic buoyancy as you navigate the high seas. Discover islands and hidden fortresses that set the stage for chaotic, wide-scale ocean warfare. Whether you are leading a pod of deep-sea beasts, braving dynamic new weather systems on a makeshift raft, or clashing with enemy armadas, the waters are yours to conquer. Survivors can teleport between these areas using the HLNA Biome Teleportation menu.
