≈ $17/mo
playing ~12 h/week on the metered plan, billed only while the server is actually up. Always-on is $59.98–$89.97/mo · about $14.99 each split between 4 players, 2–3 cores dedicated, never shared.
Huge RAM appetite; NVMe effectively mandatory; clusters multiply RAM per map.
Get the game
You buy ARK: Survival Ascended once from Steam. It is $11.24 there, a one-off purchase. NecroHost rents you the server it runs on, which is the monthly figure above.
