    'Ark: Survival Evolved' mods will become part of the main game
    Wildcard doesn't say whether or not modders will get compensation for their efforts (we've reached out for details). However, this could still be a welcome move in a game that's defined by its community. After all, mod developers rarely get more official acknowledgment from game studios than the creation of a toolkit -- this exposes their work to a much wider audience. VIDEO
