A Pokemon Mod For ARK: Survival Evolved Gets Reissued Just As Quickly As It Was Taken Down

They fall as quick as they stand. After just a few days of availability, a popular mod adding Pokemon to ARK: Survival Evolved has been issued the ill-fated DMCA notice. Showing up on New Years Eve, 'ARKMon' picked up the pace by releasing two additional critters for players to tame on January 13 and followed up with even more through multiple updates either the same day, or on each subsequent day.

Though Nintendo was obviously suspected to be behind the mod's inevitable DMCA notice, PC Gamer has since learned that it was actually another member of the modding community who issued the claim. Though it's unlikely to stop the mod from making rounds through means outside Steam Workshop, it's certainly something that'll be hit with more problems of this kind as it grows more popular. And just as quickly as the notice was issued, it was disputed and re-uploaded to the Steam Workshop. So there's still a chance for Nintendo to issue the more permanent killing blow.
