Watch On
It has been some time since we have heard a lot about Ark 2, the sequel to survival recreation Ark: Survival Advanced which was introduced all the best way again in 2020. We began to surprise if the Vin Diesel-powered sequel was nonetheless occurring (and we aren’t the one ones), but it surely’s apparently nonetheless on: It simply acquired a point out in a press launch about upcoming Ark growth Misplaced Colony.
Ark: Misplaced Colony “connects the storylines of Ark’s Extinction and Genesis expansions and leads into the occasions of Ark 2,” says Studio Wildcard.
Misplaced Colony might be out this November, and is the primary growth particularly for Ark: Survival Ascended, the Unreal Engine 5 remake of the unique Ark: Survival Advanced.
Because the Misplaced Colony teaser embedded above teases, Misplaced Colony will characteristic anime-style cutscenes by MAPPA, the Japanese animation studio behind Jujutsu Kaisen, Assault on Titan, and Chainsaw Man.

Actor Auli’i Cravalho may even present up within the growth as Meeka, the daughter of Santiago, Vin Diesel’s Ark 2 character—the pair was final seen within the Ark 2 trailer from 2022, so there’s your sequel connection.
Misplaced Colony will take gamers to “an unlimited occupied metropolis,” says Studio Wildcard, and can characteristic “new sorts of character talents, distinctive gear, constructing techniques, and phenomenally unique tames.”
The growth is about to launch in November for $30, and has a Steam web page now.
Because it’s meant to bridge the narrative hole between Ark and Ark 2, Misplaced Colony will presumably be the final Ark growth earlier than we lastly get a agency launch date for the sequel. We initially anticipated Ark 2 in 2022, then in 2023, after which in 2024, but it surely hasn’t proven up regardless of no official delay announcement.
I suppose you simply cannot rush Mr. Diesel.
There’s additionally extra to return for Ark: Survival Ascended past Misplaced Colony—its present roadmap runs by way of 2026.
