To celebrate the release of the modding tools, Studio Wildcard is also hosting a contest in conjunction with Alienware. Survival of the Fittest is now available on the Steam Workshop as a free plugin. During the stream they showed off a free-floating camera mode that allows shoutcasters to monitor the action from anywhere on the map. Survival of the Fittest was highlighted just a few weeks ago, when 70 popular Twitch livestreamers were invited to a no-holds-barred, five-hour tournament with a $30,000 prize pool. "As the contestants enter this arena, not only do they need to look out for the dangers from the creatures and the other survivors, but also randomized 'Evolution Events.' These events take place every 30 minutes and have major impact on the gameplay - from freak weather occurrences, to dinosaur stampedes, extra supply drops, day-to-night shifts, player location reveal, and more." "Leveling, gathering, taming and building happen at a quicker rate," in that mode, said the press release. It features a custom map, bounded by a dome-shaped force field, that shrinks in size the longer a match goes on. The first of those game modes, developed in-house by Studio Wildcard itself, is called Survival of the Fittest. In a press release issued today, Studio Wildcard said that by using the mod tools "creative souls can easily generate their own Ark items, weapons, creatures, maps and game modes to share with fellow survivors online." The Ark Dev Kit will be available for free through the Epic Games Launcher. The release of mod tools to the community has been a priority for the developer, as co-creator Jesse Rapczyk said in a recent interview. Come shoot the shit with the creator of Ark: Survival Evolved
