02

Quick answers

Patch tracker FAQ

How current is this tracker?

ARK2.com refreshes the Official ARK Wiki data about once per hour. If the source is temporarily unavailable, the last confirmed update remains online.

Why is my client version different from the server?

Server and client builds can use different version numbers, and console certification can stagger releases. Use the card for your platform instead of comparing every number directly.

Where do these patch notes come from?

The versions and patch bullets come from the Official ARK Community Wiki through its MediaWiki API. Every card links back to the exact source page.
