ARK: Survival Evolved

ARK: Survival Evolved

As a man or woman stranded naked, freezing & starving on a mysterious island, you must hunt, harvest, craft items, grow crops, & build shelters to survive. Use skill & cunning to kill, tame, breed, & ride Dinosaurs & primeval creatures living on ARK.

If you don't have it already, you can get the game on Steam.

Welcome to Majestic! Before continuing, please read the important information on our About page.

The Center Server

Enabled Mods

The server is currently using these mods. For mods that add new Engrams, look at the bottom of the Engram page in-game to find them. More mods may be added in the future if they can be added without causing any serious issues with the existing server data.

You can quickly subscribe to all of these mods by going here and pressing the "Subscribe to all" button. Doing this before your first play should make it easier to connect to the server!

Connecting to a Server

If you are using the Epic Store version of the game, you will not be able to play on Majestic because it is modded. You must use the Steam version of the game. Hopefully this will change in the future, but it is outside of our control.

There are two ways to connect to the server.

Traditional Method

To connect, do the following:

  1. Run the game and press the "Join ARK" button.
  2. Change the server filter to "Unofficial" and search for Majestic to find the server.
  3. Select the server and press the "Join" button, then enter the password and connect.
Before you connect, you can select the server and press the "Favorite" button to add it to your favorites. Then you can go to your favorites list to connect more easily in the future.

Fast Method

The fastest way to connect is to use a direct link. This will launch the game and connect you directly to the server.


All Majestic servers use the same password, which can be found on the about page.

Server Settings

These tables show the settings that have been modified on the server. Any setting not mentioned is likely not set (remains at its default value). I may tweak some things if I see a need for it, but will try to leave the settings alone so that everyone gets a similar game experience no matter when they start playing.
