A surprising quantity of celebrity
“Is that Vin Diesel?” I asked, watching the announcement trailer forARK 2. “Have they copied Vin Diesel’s face?” Then he grunted. “IS THAT A REAL VIN DIESEL GRUNT?” Then he spoke. IT IS VIN DIESEL. Yes, Riddick/Groot/Dom stars in the sequel to Studio Wildcard’s dinosaur-hunting sandbox survival game, which is… what is this even going to be? They also announced an Ark animated series with a voice cast including Karl Urban, David Tennant, Michelle Yeoh, Elliot Page, and Russell Crowe. What is going on.To see this content please enable targeting cookies.Manage cookie settingsStudio Wildcard haven’t explained anything about the game yet, so it’s a big ol' mystery. The trailer certainly makes it look like a God Of War-sorta dad ‘n’ kid adventure rather than a survival sandbox, but it is only a trailer. I’m wary of Ark trailers in particular because none have ever captured my experiences withArk: Survival Evolved- of not having any cool stuff, and needing to turn the draw distance down to five metres so my PC doesn’t melt.I suppose they could take the sequel in a radically different direction while the original keeps chugging on? Mysteries. Weird mysteries.Also weird: the star lineup assembled for Ark: The Animated Series. Look at these names!That’s wild. What a remarkable series of things to spring from a survival sandbox riddled with grinding and griefing. It sure looks like they’re trying to redirect its runaway success into something more prestigious.
