So as some of you may no the new ark update is coming out in 3 days time. i have noticed they are adding a new version of the caves for the island. (ALL Cave Structures will necessarily be wiped in this update)

Full update details below

- New Mechanic: Breeding Phase 3: Random Mutations and Family Trees. At last!!!!
