Ark: Survival Ascended vs Rust
Side by side on what we actually measure: scores and review counts from Steam, price against the lowest we've ever recorded, and peak concurrent players from our own hourly sampling.
ARK is reimagined from the ground-up in this next-generation of video game technology with Unreal Engine 5! Form a tribe, tame & breed hundreds of unique dinosaurs and creatures, explore, craft, build, and fight your way to the top of the food-chain. Your new world awaits!
RustThe only aim in Rust is to survive. Everything wants you to die - the island’s wildlife, other inhabitants, the environment, and other survivors. Do whatever it takes to last another night.
