Modder replaces Ark's dinosaurs with Pokémon, is quickly slapped with DMCA notice
A mod for Ark: Survival Evolved that replaces all of the survival game's dinosaurs with Pokémon has appeared in the ↪ Steam Workshop, though if you want to catch 'em all you might need to be quick about it. The Workshop page states that "A DMCA Notice of Copyright Infringement has been filed on this item." As of Sunday, five days after the the mod appeared, it is still available to be downloaded, though that may change in the near future.
We're not sure yet who issued the DMCA notice—though I could probably take a guess—but it could definitely spell trouble for the mod, especially since modder 'Mystic Academy' admits the models and animations used in the mod were imported directly from Pokémon X/Y rather than recreated from scratch. The modder only made changes to ensure the models worked in-game.
We'll keep you updated as to the status of the Pokémon Evolved mod, which, legality aside, looks pretty cool. There's no resource gathering—you just hunt, fight, and ride Pokémon.
