UPDATE: As is tradition, Studio Wildcard has
left it to the last second to announce the final ARK Part Genesis 2
release time and have now revealed that they have changed their
schedule.
It has now been confirmed that the ARK Genesis 2 release time
has been changed to 1pm BST in the UK and 8am EDT in North America
on Thursday, June 3, 2021.
A message from Studio Wildcard explains: "Genesis Part 2 is
currently finishing the automated certification process. We expect
that process to be complete in the early morning, so we'll be
launching simultaneously on all platforms at 8 AM Eastern June
3rd.
"Thank you for your patience and support. It will be worth
it."
ORIGINAL: Having had to delay the launch by
several weeks, Studio Wildcard is now ready to release ARK Genesis
Part 2 in June.
The new expansion has been dubbed the most ambitious expansion
ever created for ARK Survival Evolved on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
And with a sequel to the extremely popular survival sim in the
works, the arrival of this new paid DLC heralds the final story
elements being put together for ARK in 2021.
The good news is that while things will be winding for ARK
Survival Evolved, Studio Wildcard are planning a big sendoff.
Not only will there be new variant creatures to tame and new TEK
to create and build, but everything should be arriving on the same
day.
Studio Wildcard has promised a unified launch across PS4, Xbox
One and PC, which are the platforms that most ARK gamers use to
play.
That means everyone should get access to ARK Genesis Part 2 on
the same day on those platforms.
WHEN IS ARK GENESIS PART 2 COMING OUT?
Studio Wildcard has confirmed that ARK Genesis Part 2 is coming
out on Wednesday, June 2, 2021.
ARK Survival Evolved will be receiving a big update on that day,
meaning everyone should have a chunky patch to download.
However, while everyone is supposed to be getting access to ARK
Genesis Part 2 on the same day, Studio Wildcard will be using a
staggered rollout.
This means that the new ARK Genesis 2 release time will be
different for each platform.
PC is expected to get the download first, followed by consoles.
However, an official schedule for the ARK Genesis Part 2 release
time has not been shared yet.
A message from the Studio Wildcard support team explains: "It
will be released on all platforms but there will likely be time
between PC and console. I don't know the exact time but I'd
estimate a 6-8 hour difference."
So more information on the subject should be revealed in the
coming hours, and we’ll make sure to update this article with the
latest information.
Speaking about the need to delay and revise the release of ARK
Genesis 2 earlier this year, Studio Wildcard told fans:
“This final chapter of the ARK: Survival Evolved story is by far
the most intricate and ambitious expansion we’ve yet created! We’re
so excited to share it with you and proud of the team’s immense
efforts, creativity, and passion. We truly believe Genesis 2 will
be something special, and a fitting story conclusion to the journey
you’ve taken with us in ARK over the past 6 years, and hope our
players will feel likewise!
“As many of you are aware, we transitioned to a fully-remote
working environment at the beginning of last year. Shifting from a
collaborative in-office workflow to remote comes with unique
challenges.
“The massive scope of Genesis Part 2, and our personally set
challenge of ending ARK 1 with a bang, was compounded by the team
having to work from home all the way through the forthcoming
release. We have made the decision to delay the launch by one week,
until June the 2nd. Just in time for the 6th Anniversary of
ARK!
“This was a difficult decision for us, since we’re as eager to
get Genesis 2 into your hands as you are to play it--but ultimately
we feel it’s the right decision to get the new content to our
players in the best way on launch day, simultaneously across Steam,
Epic Games Store, Xbox, and PlayStation.”
Some of the new features being promised for the ARK Genesis Part
2 release can be found listed below and includes the following:
Biome Variants - Some old friends will be
making a reappearance in Genesis Part 2 -- here's an early look at
our GEN-R variants, which include new versions of many previous
expansions' creatures!
Net Projectile - When a normal bola isn't doing
the job, in comes the net projectile. Using the net projectile with
a harpoon, you'll be able to net larger creatures.
TEK GEAR - Secure your base in Genesis Part 2
with the Remote Camera Security System. Issue commands, view, and
communicate all from a remote location. You can even use them to
spy-on and communicate with your enemies!
Void Wyrm - The silhouette might read as a
wyvern but these mechanical sentries are nothing of the sort. Be
careful when you're out exploring, Voidwyrm does not take well to
interlopers!
Jar of Pitch - If you're going on a siege, you'll definitely
want something that can leave an impact. The Jar of Pitch allows
you to do just that by leaving an impact area covered in
flames.
Astrodelphis - Curious and inquisitive, the
swift Astrodelphis may look like the cetaceans that once swam in
Earth's oceans but this variation had loftier dreams and made an
interstellar home amongst the stars, evolving unique traits.
