This guide will help you learn how to change your Map to Aberration on your ARK Survival Ascended Server.
Switching your ARK: Survival Ascended server map to Aberration opens up a whole new adventure filled with bioluminescent caves, hazardous environments, and unique creatures that can’t be found anywhere else. Whether you’re looking to challenge your tribe with tougher survival mechanics or simply explore one of ARK’s most atmospheric expansions, changing your server map is the first step.
