ARK: Survival Ascended Β· May 20, 2026
Meet the Burrowbuck, a swift and evasive utility creature perfect for mastering map control, misdirection, and brilliant ambushes! Carve out hidden, bunker-like underground dens and open temporary gateway tunnels for rapid long-distance travel, giving prepared Survivors new ways to reposition, retreat, or spring a trap. When danger closes in, the Burrowbuck can kick up disorienting dust clouds and leave behind concealed hazards for enemies reckless enough to follow. The Burrowbuck thrives on misdirection, making it an indispensable asset for your tribe's tactical superiority. Step into the unknown and outsmart your foes with this master of guerrilla warfare! --- The wait is over. The first community-voted Extra Life TLC creature has officially emerged from the shadows. The Araneo TLC is now live in ARK: Survival Ascended, transforming this once-overlooked crawler into a far more capable ambush predator. These overgrown spiders no longer cling to the ground alone, using web-lines to traverse elevated terrain, reposition through the environment, and descend on unsuspecting prey from above with unnerving precision. Armed with new mobility options, updated saddle functionality, and more versatile webbing, the Araneo now fills a unique role that blends traversal, control, and tactical support. Whether youβre weaving through difficult terrain, setting traps, or stalking your next target from the ceiling, this eight-legged menace is ready to spin a very different story across the ARKs. Thank you again to everyone who supported Extra Life and helped bring this TLC to life. Next stop, Therizinosaurus!
