We don’t expect Ark 2 to go full Final Fantasy 14, but with the pivotal role Vin Diesel played in the trailer, it’s not farfetched to assume he’s going to be around for more than a marketing stunt. As a multiplayer experience, Ark: Survival Evolved did eventually add lore for you to discover, which explained the island’s sci-fi background, but you’re welcome to ignore all of that just as easily and make your own fun. It’s not certain Ark 2 will have a traditional storyline to follow. Microsoft also points out that Ark 2 will be optimized for Xbox Series X|S.

The early Ark experience can be frustrating, but it rewards patience and curiosity, and did we mention it has dinosaurs you can ride? Ark is notorious for leaving players to figure out mechanics on their own through death, death and more death, as well as plenty of stories of high-level players just razing through weaker players’ camps. It’s not all fun though, as the survival the game’s title hints at is an essential point of the experience. There are a lot of different dinosaurs in Ark, but also other prehistoric or otherwise extinct creatures, which you can not only make into your own large zoo if you so wish, but also ride and breed. According to a tweet by the developer, the overall gameplay idea of Ark isn’t set to change in the sequel – it will still be a multiplayer game, and you will still be able to fight and tame creatures in order to help ensure your survival as best as possible. ✅next gen graphics✅next gen online multiplayer sandbox✅next gen logo✅next gen hype /MfT5aTYu5O December 11, 2020Īrk 2 is Studio Wildcard’s sequel to Ark: Survival Evolved, the multiplayer survival sandbox with dinos. 4 What was that about an Ark animated series?.3 What is Vin Diesel doing in Ark 2, anyway?.
