	“	ARK: Extinction is going to challenge and delight you in all sorts of new ways.	„
		~ Jesse

Extinction is the third paid Expansion Pack for ARK: Survival Evolved.

Extinction was released on November 6th, 2018 for PC and released on November 13th for Xbox One and PS4, and is available for purchase through the Season Pass.

Overview

Extinction places survivors on an -infested, ravaged planet filled with fantastical creatures both organic and technological. Earth holds both the secrets of the past and the keys to its salvation.

Unique Environmental Features

• Eclipses that temporarily dim the light.
• Geysers that launch survivors and Creatures into the air.
• Meteor showers where meteors rain down upon the land and destroy structures and kill Creatures.
• that fall from the sky and that rise from the ground that, when activated, start PvE horde-styled events. The orbital supply drops are also attacked by the corrupted dinosaurs

The Corrupted Earth Map

Overview

This map, set on Ravaged Earth rather than an ARK up in space, forces players to survive an Earth unfamiliar to us: one of strange features and stranger creatures. In the center of the map lies an abandoned city, usually referred to as the Great City or Sanctuary. It is the remains of some great technologically advanced civilization, the same one that built the ARKs. Outside of the city borders, pockets of life can be hard to find among the corrupted wasteland. They are still there, however, in the protective borders of the Proto-ARKs. To the south, the desert Proto-ARK exists. To the north, the Snow Dome, a second Proto-ARK. Another exists to the northwest, called the Sunken Forest, which was supposed to be another ARK but failed when it collapsed into the ground, presumably due to there being a large sinkhole underneath it. Strangely enough, the Proto-ARKs represent past challenges the survivor has faced: the Sanctuary and Snow Dome vaguely representing The Island, the Desert Dome representing Scorched Earth, and the Sunken Forest bearing similarities to Aberration. Despite being called 'dead' this Earth may be more alive than we first thought, but with life we don't understand.

New Resources

Corrupted Earth features several new resources as well as existing ones from previous DLCs. Some of these resources, such as and serve as substitutes for other resources.

New Features

Corrupted Earth contains several interactive structure drops known as and . This new feature requires all survivors with their tamed Creatures to fend off against waves of Corrupted Creatures to obtain the items left behind inside, in the form of PvE style raid. The in parts irregular outer boundary of the map is indicated with poles bearing red lights at the top. Crossing the outer boundary of the map will, unlike in the other maps, instantly kill you and your tamed creature.

New Creatures

Corrupted Earth contains living creatures. The corruption of has led to turning most of the Creatures into a variant known as "Corrupted" which roam around the earth. Due to the over-exposure of the , their minds and bodies have become too Corrupted to be tamed like their original counterparts, and must be killed on sight since not only will they destroy anything non-corrupt in their way, their minds moves in a "hive-mentality" state which makes any previous Temperament they were known for redundant. These include creatures like the from Scorched Earth and the from Aberration.

Moreover, these Corrupted Creatures react to activations of and , causing them to amass against the tribes who activated them in waves and will attack not only them, but mainly the activated drop as well.

However, not all creatures mutated by the submit to its "hive-mentality". Some creatures, such as still retain its normal temperament, thus allowing survivors to tame them despite their state of appearance.

Enormous Creatures, known as "Titans" roam across sections of the map accessible through dungeons/caves once their following prototype Obelisks are activated. They are extremely aggressive, but survivors who managed to knock them down will be able to tame the savage beasts temporarily, the 3 "smaller" Titans must be defeated in order to fight the final and strongest Titan for the expansion.

Within Earth lies technologies like the and the . While these new Mechanical Creatures cannot be tamed like organic beings, they can be crafted by survivors with parts from destroyed Creatures and blueprints from to build them as part of their tribe.

Loot

Different from its predecessors, Extinction does not contain s or s that descend from the sky or appear on the ground as in Aberration. There are several ways to obtain loot items:

• - special provide armor, weapons and sometimes structures, but do not contain saddles, but this is the easiest and safest way to obtain said items.
• Cave s - the three caves, Desert Cave, Forest Cave, and Ice Cave host a number of high-level s containing weapons, armor and saddles.
• - defending the waves of and securing the loot provides armor, weapons, structures and Tek Tier items exclusive to Extinction, such as s.
• Defeating the 4 Titans (, , and ) provides survivors with valuable loot.

  • It is also visible from the surface of Aberration
• Unlike The Island and the previous Expansion Packs Scorched Earth and Aberration, this expansion pack includes mainly kaiju inspired creatures (e.g: , , and the normal ) and Mecha inspired creatures typically seen in kaiju films (e.g: , , , , and the ).
• On the Steam page for the Season Pass, the first targeted release date was spring 2018 which was changed in December, 2017 to a general 2018 release date. It was finally released on November 6, 2018.
• One to two hours after the ARK: ARKaeology event started, the banner time was replaced by another banner, hinting a new creature and one of the tainted areas within the map.
• On the third day, the countdown was brought over to the Twitch channel, with an updated banner that constantly changed over time.
  • In the 4 hour mark, a dinosaur could be seen in the same banner during the countdown in twitch channel, showing a within the red mist.
  • In the 3 hour mark, a small object (possibly a ) could be seen above the said creature's head.

• During an interview with Wildcard, they stated that they were unsure if Mechanical Creatures such as s found in Extinction will be normally tamed like other creatures, or if they will be "crafted".
  • It was later confirmed that , and most other Mechanical Creatures will be a craft-only tame Creature. This means there may be more Creatures that are only "tameable" from crafting. This does not include previously existing Mechanical Creatures, however.

• In lore, Extinction is the setting of some of the most tragic moments in the ARK lore.
  • The survivors that were with Helena, Mei Yin and Santiago were mentally broken down when they realized they escaped the ARKs only to land in an even greater danger instead of safety.
  • For Santiago, he never got to see the he created since he had to use a to lure away the horde that is going to attack Camp Omega, sacrificing himself in the process.
  • For Helena, she had to sacrifice her mind and body to save her friends but she was too late and Mei Yin was the only survivor she saved from the . Even though the survivors she couldn't save are buried by Mei Yin and Diana and at rest, Helena isn't at rest as her mind slowly crumbles beneath the knowledge that flows through her as a Homo Deus.
  • For Mei Yin, she has already lost Wuzhui to the New Legion, Ao Yue to s and Diana to Rockwell, but now she lost Helena, her closest friend who is in a coma and the survivors who died by the 's hands. After Helena ascended to Homo Deus status, Mei Yin thought she was going to live out a new life in a torturous wasteland alone. On top of that, her promise from Diana about flying a jet seems to be forever out of reach. But different from the other survivors, she rebounds when she reunites with a newly resurrected Diana.
  • For Diana, she returned with Mei Yin to grab the other two suits only to see those suits be surrounded by badly decomposed corpses of survivors that she deeply trusted back on Aberration.
• Shortly after the launch of Extinction, the Corrupted Deathworm was removed from the game.
• This may be a reference to Ark II , because in the television series, it said that earth used to be rich and fertile before it was ravaged by pollution, sort of like extinction; it used to be peaceful, but then became corrupted with element.
