Bob’s Tall Tales is a major content expansion for Ark: Survival Ascended. We’ll explain how much content it contains, and how much it will set you back.

With that being said, Bob has a lot to answer for. This rundown includes everything you can expect from Bob’s Tall Tales at the time of writing, as well as from future content updates.
