Studio Wildcard has revealed that it's planning on releasing Ark 2, the full-fledged sequel to the original Ark: Survival Evolved, in 2028.
Studio Wildcard co-founder Jeremy Stieglitz gave a fairly comprehensive overview of the two-year roadmap for Ark: Survival Ascended, the updated remaster of Survival Evolved that released in 2023, during a presentation for parent company Snail Games' Investor Day (via the Epic Games Store). The game's first big expansion pack, Lost Colony, launches this week and kicks off the game's roadmap, which culminates in a big Q4 2027 expansion, Legacy of Santiago, that'll essentially let Studio Wildcard test out a bunch of ideas planned for the actual sequel.
