  • Unravelling the Mysteries of the ARK: Ruins!

    Survivors!

    Earlier in the year we began slowly unravelling some of the mysteries that surround the ARK. We started off with showing off some of the Explorer Notes, and now we’d like to introduce you guys to another part of the story, the Ruins!

    Various historical ruins will be found all across the ARK, we encourage survivors to go on adventures and seek them out as they hold the key into unlocking the secrets of the ARK, providing insight into its true nature! Through the hundreds of handcrafted notes and logs found at these locations, you’ll learn about the backstories of the Survivors in whose footsteps you follow, and what their fates may have been -- or perhaps uncover the hidden recipes to powerful dishes, or even what the Wildcard devs drink to avoid sleeping :P

    Who knows! Intrepid Survivors will have to find out by going on the hunt to uncover them all -- the first set of Ruins & Explorer Notes releases with the forthcoming Biome update! ;) 

    ...And one more thing: Are you ready to stake your claim on The Center tomorrow? Because It's Ready For You!!! We'll see all you Survivors on this new ARK tomorrow afternoon, on Xbox and PC!

    All the best,

    Wildcard Jat and the ARK: Survival Evolved Team!

    Locations of the ruins in case there's a base on the spot?

    Or are there going to be some markers placed?

    they realy are one huge continuous ruin. looks like an aztec/cliff dwelling civilization built them. yeh they do look a little cleaned up, but the busted up walls and barely-there bridges are fun to look around in

    It's good they didn't "just" go the way The Island and The Center did :) There's something for everyone :) 
    It was in no way meant as a negative :)

    It was just about time that the south deserted rocky peninsula got itself those ruins!!! It was so clear that some ruins oughta go there!!! Look at it... plenty rocks... a little pond piranha infested... deserted of trees and bushes....... In fact, it is already a RUIN peninsula itself.... put the ruins somewhere else... !!! :D

    But where would the fun be in that?? If they told us where all the ruins were then it wouldn't be exploring nor an adventure. I get the base problem, but if they're near or on/part of your base it could make it more wicked IMHO. As long as it didn't screw up the base of course. O.o

    I am gonna wager that ruin location will be reported online very soon after they release, so it seems that keeping them secret is pointless. Can we have a map of the ruins so people in danger of having their base all or partly wiped can prepare? If people want to hunt for the ruins themselves, they just have to avoid the map.

    Really nice to see some more depth to the story coming into the game. I know The Center did a really good job in regards to ruins, so I'm looking forward to these ones!

    This is awesome! I can't wait to try and find them. It's great to figure out more about the story of Ark and how you come to wake up on an island with dinosaurs and a creepy little thing in your arm. Ps does anyone else think the sound when you first wake up on the beach sounds like being unzipped from a body bag? Because I always have! Haha great job guys! 

    I like to think of the pre-spawn story as though we are clones that are being moved from a growing lab, just like jurassic park with the dinosaurs to the island, which I think that would explain why it sound's like a body bag haha but I definitely agree with you on that!
