Within the world of ARK: Survival Ascended, you can encounter many creatures to conquer as you explore. Sometimes though, you might feel the need for new challenges and more powerful creatures to face and tame. This is why we’re presenting to you the ARK Primal Chaos mod, which not only includes powerful new dinos but also new items, weapons, armors, and more.
This exciting mod is based on Primal Fear, previously designed for ARK: Survival Evolved. Since its release, it has remained a highlight in the community as it adds difficulty and novelty to the game. This allows players to explore mechanics in a slightly different way, adding specialized elements for each of the new types of creatures. Additionally, with its constant updates and the continued work of the developers, we can expect much more from ARK Primal Chaos. Below, we’ll dive into some of the many features you can expect while playing this mod with friends on your own server!

The experience within the mod wouldn’t be the same without these exciting new “primal” versions of the base creatures, which gradually become stronger as their class increases. These improved versions of dinos are divided into the following classes, listed from weakest to most powerful as of their latest updates:






Throughout the map, you can also encounter new bosses to face, which will increase in difficulty according to their tier. They can also be tamed.
Introducing new creatures also means there are some new special ways to tame them. The process is as follows: first, you’ll need to sedate the dinos with special narcotics, stronger than those in the vanilla version. Once they are unconscious, you’ll have to give them a special kibble, according to their tier.
Among the new items brought by this mod, we find a series of items solely for taming, such as kibble, narcotics in the form of darts and arrows, and taming paste. Additionally, we can find potions and specialized ingots for crafting weapons and armor.





With such powerful creatures, we need improved armor, and that’s where we find the 2 new armors. To create them, you’ll need special materials included in the mod, such as ingots and skin from certain dinos that you can obtain from alpha and beta dinos:

It also includes 2 sets of tools with greater power than those in the base game, Beta and Alpha. These tools cause more damage than normal ones, making farming much easier and faster.

The mod features two unique structures whose sole function is to create the mod’s exclusive items: the Refining Forge and the Chaos Smithy. The forge is exclusive for creating specialized ingots, while the smithy allows you to create all the mod’s exclusive items.

Venture forth to face these new creature variants from your favorite platform, as this mod is cross-platform and can be installed on both consoles and PC.
With all these new additions to the base game, ARK Primal Chaos is an excellent choice to expand your fun within the world of Ark with new, fiercer, and more colorful creatures, powerful tranquilizers to tame these new beasts, and many other items. We invite you to discover for yourself all the new things that ARK Primal Chaos has for you on your own ARK: Survival Ascended server.
