ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition getting “Dinosaur Discovery” experience first on Switch

Earlier today, Studio Wildcard held a live-stream to discuss enhancements for ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition on Switch, which led to the reveal of the unique kids’ experience called “Dinosaur Discovery”. This is a completely revamped experience planned for launch on October 25th, 2022.

Dinosaur Discovery is a brand new ARK experience appropriate for even the smallest of survivors, coming first to ARK: Ultimate Survivor Edition on Switch. Take a journey through the epochs in this new educational experience that invites families and kids to learn about the fascinating prehistoric creatures that inspired the game.

Details on the community-chosen dino Carcharodontosaurus were announced today as well. It is a fearsome carnivore that gets more dangerous once it tastes blood. Carcharodontosaurus can sweep aside attackers with its tail, but it’s the other end you’ll really want to avoid. With teeth like steak knives, it sets in jaws strong enough to shred most prey. This vicious predator is coming to ARK later this year.

Finally, PAX West attendees can head to Booth #325 (4th Floor) to try out Scorched Earth running on the Switch for the first time ever and meet a real-life-sized version of HLN-A. She is complete with an incredible holographic display-face and interacts directly with ARK survivors – so whatever burning questions you have just ask. Take a picture with her and she’ll tell you a joke!
