I am trying to find someone who is running Steam for Linux and Native Linux version of ARK.

I wanted to buy it awhile ago, never did, and now, I do not see Linux version to buy, for the base game.

Ark used to have a Native Linux version, and now, you only see EXPANSIONS with a Native Linux version.

Additional confusing situations, ... I have questions for a current Ark Linux player ...if you can please be found...

They are also closing the current Ark game servers, as far as I can tell, in August, and then, releasing a new remake / remaster version, and I think you need to buy the game again, in the new form?
No idea what/why is going on, I just want to get the game, and play, and for 2 other people, so, any details on all this, from a currently playing Linux player , who plays Ark would be wonderful.
Thank you!
