ARK: Survival Evolved is an indie action & adventure game made by Studio Wildcard in 2017. Stranded naked, freezing & starving on a mysterious island, you must hunt, harvest, craft items, grow crops, & build shelters to survive.

The system requirements are quite high, and a gaming laptop with a new graphics processing unit is required for successfully running A:SE. GeForce RTX 3070 Ti or better mobile GPU is needed.
16gb is a high amount of RAM, which has to be taken to account when choosing a laptop. 8gb is enough if you only want to meet the minimum requirements.
Also, note that at least 60gb of hard drive space is required, so make sure that your laptop has enough space for your needs.
These laptops meet the recommended system requirements and let you enjoy the game on high graphics settings without lag and stutter.
These cheaper options meet the minimum system requirements stated by the developer. You may need to lower the graphics settings or the in-game resolution to run the game smoothly.
