Questions

Here are some ARK specific FAQs. If you need even more, head to our knowledgebase.

What is an ARK Dedicated Server?
An ARK dedicated server is a private game world you fully control. It offers uninterrupted performance, mod support, and customization options, all hosted on high performance hardware with DDoS protection and full FTP access.
How do I set up an ARK server with PLAYNHOST?
Just sign up, pick your ARK plan, and check out. You’ll receive login credentials by email. Use our custom control panel to configure your server, adjust settings, and launch with mods or maps like The Center or Ragnarok in minutes.
Can I install mods or custom maps?
Yes, we support full Steam Workshop integration. Install mods and maps like Primal Fear or Extinction Core with one click, or upload your own custom content via FTP or our panel.
I’m new to hosting, can you help me?
Definitely. Our support team is online 24/7 via chat and Discord. We’ll guide you through everything from launching your first ARK world to managing engrams, dinos, and server backups.
Where are your servers located?
Every server runs in Frankfurt, Germany. It is our only location today, and it is where your server is created whichever plan you buy. Frankfurt suits players across Europe well; if your group is much further away, expect higher latency until we open somewhere closer. You can ask to be told when we do on our Hardware and Locations page.
What if I’m not happy with the service?
No problem. If you’re not satisfied, request a refund within 3 days through the control panel. We offer a full money back guarantee, no questions asked.
