Long-Awaited Open-World Survival Follow-Up Ark 2 is Still On Track for Late 2024
Good news for fans eagerly awaiting the sequel to the popular open-world survival game, Ark: Survival Evolved – it seems that Ark 2, which, yes, features Vin Diesel riding dinosaurs, is still on course for a late 2024 release. This news comes directly from Snail Games CEO, Jim Tsai, who recently spoke at the Noblecon19 business conference in December.

Snail Games, a China-based developer, has previously collaborated with other development studios on a variety of successful titles, such as Studio Wildcard’s Ark: Survival Evolved and Survival Ascended, as well as action-RPG Wushu Chronicles, and the daring pirate-themed MMO Atlas.
Tsai excitedly referred to Ark 2 as their “next masterpiece” and was bullish about the late 2024 release window. This statement put to rest earlier rumors suggesting that Ark 2 might be delayed into 2025, which had been debunked at the time by support studio Digital Domain.

Ark 2’s release journey has not been a smooth one, as it has faced multiple delays since its original announcement. Initially due for release on PC and Xbox Series X/S platforms in 2022, the game was pushed back to 2023, and finally into next year, 2024. Fortunately for its fans, it appears that a fourth delay isn’t looming this time.
While the standout feature of Ark 2 is undoubtedly Vin Diesel riding dinosaurs, many details about the game remain under wraps. What we do know is that the sequel will follow in its predecessor’s footsteps as a survival game, with one notable addition: Souls-like melee combat. This is guaranteed to create an even more intense, captivating experience for players.
