"Lost Colony: Michelle Yeoh Stars in Ark Expansion, Prelude to Ark 2"
The much-anticipated dinosaur survival game, Ark 2, which faced speculation about its development status, has been revitalized with the announcement of a new expansion for Ark: Survival Ascended. This expansion, titled Ark: Lost Colony, serves as a bridge to the upcoming sequel, reassuring fans that the project is still on track.
Ark: Lost Colony marks the first original expansion for the Ark 1 remake, Ark: Survival Ascended. The reveal trailer, crafted by the renowned anime studio Mappa (known for Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan, and Chainsaw Man), features voiceover work by Michelle Yeoh, who reprises her role as Mei Yin from Ark: The Animated Series.
Studio Wildcard has promised that **Ark: Lost Colony** will include numerous cinema-quality anime story sequences produced by Mappa. The official description of the expansion reads:In this new frozen world, players follow in the footsteps of legendary Ark survivor Mei Yin, on a soul-searching quest deep into the chilling heart of darkness to find answers to long-buried secrets of Ark’s past.
Ark: Lost Colony will present survivors with thrilling new challenges as they become the hunted in a vast occupied city, and gain access to powerful new kinds of character abilities, unique gear, building systems, and phenomenally exotic tames.
Will Survivors be able to face down the demons lurking in Arat Prime, and connect Ark's past and future?
Studio Wildcard emphasized that Ark: Lost Colony "directly connects" the narratives of the Extinction and Genesis expansions, setting the stage for the events of Ark 2.
Ark 2, developed using Unreal Engine 5, follows the success of Ark: Survival Evolved. Initially unveiled with a surprise appearance by Vin Diesel at The Game Awards 2020, it was slated for a 2022 release but faced multiple delays, pushing it to late 2024 as an Xbox Series X and S console exclusive, available day-one on Game Pass, and on PC via Steam and Windows.
Despite assurances as recent as December 2023 that **Ark 2** would meet its late 2024 release, the deadline was missed, raising concerns among fans. The announcement of **Ark: Lost Colony** in early 2025 reassures fans of ongoing development, though Studio Wildcard has not yet provided an updated release window for **Ark 2**.More concrete details are available for Ark: Lost Colony. Pre-orders will begin in June 2025, with immediate access to exclusive preview gameplay content. The full release is scheduled for November 2025, with Ark: Lost Colony priced at $29.99 for Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 5, and PC.
