Ark 2 Delayed Again: Vin Diesel’s Involvement Causes Uncertainty
The highly anticipated release of Ark 2 has been pushed back once again, with the game now scheduled for 2028. This news comes after years of delays and promises, leaving fans both frustrated and amused at the situation. Studio Wildcard co-founder Jeremy Stieglitz revealed in an interview that the delay was necessary to ensure that the game meets their vision and quality standards. “We felt we had to learn a lot more about how to make the kind of game we wanted to do, and to do it in phases,” Stieglitz explained.
Stieglitz also mentioned an upcoming expansion for Ark: Survival Ascended, titled Legacy of Santiago, which will introduce combat mechanics planned for Ark 2. However, he noted that the expansion will not feature the extensive narrative content that they have in store for the sequel.
The most intriguing aspect of the delay is the uncertainty surrounding Vin Diesel’s involvement in the game. Stieglitz revealed that the game’s narrative is heavily dependent on the actor’s availability and level of participation. “The scope of how much performance we are going to get determines just how the narrative is going to play out,” he said.
With the game’s narrative hinging on Vin Diesel’s involvement, there is a sense of unpredictability and anticipation among fans. Despite the delays and uncertainties, Ark 2 continues to generate buzz and intrigue within the gaming community. Only time will tell if Vin Diesel’s presence will shape the game’s narrative in unexpected ways.
