Running an ARK dedicated server is... complicated.

System Requirements

To run an ARK dedicated server, you'll need a system with at least 6GB of RAM and a quad-core processor. The operating system must be 64-bit and should be Linux (Ubuntu 16.04+), Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit), Windows Server 2012-2022. Modded servers will require even more processing power.

Installation

You can install the server from your Steam library or use SteamCMD.

For Linux:
steamcmd +force_install_dir ./Ark_Dedicated_Server +login anonymous +app_update 376030 +quit
For Windows:
steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir C:\Ark_Dedicated_Server +login anonymous +app_update 376030 +quit

You'll need to forward UDP Port 27015, 7777, 7778 and TCP 27020.

Starting the server

You can launch the dedicated server from your steam library or run the server by using command line in the server's directory after creating a .bat or .sh file to run it:

Windows:
start_server.bat
Linux:
./server_start.sh
