THE END OF THE ARKS, THE GENESIS OF A NEW SAGA. Plunge through the icy heart of darkness as you reunite with old legends, while rekindling hope for the next generation. ARK: Lost Colony bridges the gap between Extinction and ARK 2 with the most ambitious narrative experience in the franchise's history. Your journey returns you to the beginning: Arat Prime, the site of humanity’s final stand. You awaken in the Necrocene - a brutal, post-Cataclysmic era where the Earth’s southern pole has been plunged into eternal night. Buried within the deep snow, the metropolis of the Lost Colony clings to existence beneath energy shields, powered by the radioactive warmth of Red Element. Survival here is an act of defiance against nature itself. This unnatural heat source keeps the Colony alive… only by repelling the Reseed Protocol, ensuring the Earth remains broken so that the Lost King may rule his corrupt kingdom.

Caught between the tyrannical order of the Lost King and the creeping, violet corruption of an old enemy, you must navigate a world of gothic horror and advanced science. From the jagged craters of the Tundra to the bioluminescent canopy of the Twilight Forest, and into the depths of the Lost City itself, every inch of the map tells a story of survival at any cost.

Will you cling to your humanity, or will you undergo the Turning to become the monster this place demands you to be?
