ARK: Survival Evolved Genesis Part 2 Is Now Live To Bridge The Narrative To ARK 2

ark survival evolved genesis part 2 expansion bannerAs announced earlier this week, the massive ARK: Survival Evolved Genesis Part 2 DLC expansion is now live. Genesis Part 2 is the fifth and final expansion for the pre-historic survival sandbox and marks the end of the game’s storyline while also setting the stage for the events of the upcoming sequel, ARK 2.

Genesis Part 2 acts as a “narrative bridge” between the two games featuring a new “world” to explore and new story-missions to complete aboard a massive ship travelling through deep space. The ship itself is made up of new biomes inhabited by new creatures that offer new loot for players to acquire.

“With your faithful artificial companion HLN-A by your side, you’ve emerged from the Genesis simulation to find yourself aboard a gigantic starship being overtaken by a familiar threat from the distant past.

In Genesis Part 2, you’ll explore a vast new world teeming with strange biomes and exotic creatures, while engaging in story-oriented missions that test your mettle, ingenuity, and survival skills. Wielding an array of powerful new tames, items, weapons, and structures, you’ll journey from idyllic fields through twilit phantasmagoric realms, all the way into a hellish heart of darkness. Thousands of years and trillions of miles away from where your story began, you’ll challenge series-villain Rockwell in a final confrontation to determine the fate of humanity. The future is in your hands, Survivor — one last time!”

If you haven’t bought the game and would like to take it for a spin, the base game is currently free-to-play on Steam for the next couple of days. Should you decide that you want to purchase the game, it’s also being offered at 80% off until June 8. The ARK: Survival Evolved Survivor Edition, which includes the base game and all DLC expansions, is also available at 62% off indefinitely.
