ARK 2 Release Date
ARK 2 is going to be a sequel to the 2017 action-adventure survival game Ark: Survival Evolved, a game in which the players are put in a world where they must survive against a dangerous hostile environment surrounded with prehistoric beings (mostly dinosaurs) with the help of sci-fi technology. The release date for ARK 2 is scheduled for 2022.
In the ARK 2 trailer above, a band of some kind of prehistoric tribe led by a character who is actually Vin Diesel are travelling as usual and they get attacked by a hostile group. As they are fighting, they all get attacked by a giant T-Rex. The battle against both these hostile group and the dinosaur takes a toll on them and the only remaining survivors are Vin Diesel and a girl.
They soon enter a different place and notice some kind of thing attached to their wrists. From here on they see the world in a different way and wild pteranodons are flying across the sky. The trailer concludes here and it is yet unknown whether Vin diesel is going to be an intractable permanent character in the game or just some kind of NPC. Ark Survival Evolved is also going to get an animated series with a voice cast that will include people like Karl Urban, David Tennant, Michelle Yeoh, and Elliot Page.
