ARK: Survival Ascended servers are on the way

ARK: Survival Ascended's server licence allows personal, non-commercial use only, and its publisher lets just one company rent ARK servers. ARK opens on Wilderack only if we obtain a commercial hosting licence.

Plans will start at 12 GB, with 16 GB recommended for most groups.
