Ark 2 is coming to Game Pass in 2023

Vin Diesel arrived at the not-E3 Summer Game Fest Xbox show with dinosaurs in tow, and an Ark 2 Game Pass release is confirmed for 2023 day one

Vie Diesel is overjoyed that Ark 2 leaks for the Xbox Showcase

June 12, 2022: An Ark 2 Game Pass release is confirmed for 2023, thanks to the survival game showing at the Xbox Showcase after all.

Despite fake leaks and reports, Ark 2 did indeed show at the Xbox and Bethesda Showcase, confirming the eagerly-awaited Vin Diesel-starring survival game for a release in 2023. And more importantly, there will be an Ark 2 Game Pass release too.

The anticipated Vin Diesel dinosaur game – also known as Ark 2, the sequel to Ark: Survival Evolved – was revealed at the Game Awards back in December 2020. Other than the news that family man Vin Diesel is actually serving as “president of creative convergence” on the project, we haven’t heard anything about the Ark 2 release date since then.

While it didn’t receive any sort of gameplay reveal, Ark 2 did indeed show at the Xbox Showcase on June 12. As for why it would be at Microsoft’s event rather than Summer Game Fest or the PC Gaming Show, it was previously confirmed as an Xbox console launch exclusive.
