I have high hopes but the fact that they won't say what the developers have worked on in the past and the fact that it will be early access has me a little on the cautious side.

Drake [developer] 6 hours ago
There will never, ever be any monetization of this game whatsoever other than possible entirely new Expansion ARK's (whole new worlds as expansion pack).

There will never be any pay items, not even cosmetics -- there WILL be tons of cosmetic "item skins" but they will all be earnable in-game rewards and time-limited free events to encourage gameplay, nothing ever to spend any $$$ on.

The term Loot Crate simply was employed to denote high-value item cache ;)

To be clear, we at Studio Wildcard are very much against any in-game monetization whatsoever. We've seen it distort too many otherwise good games.







Im In.

So is it multiplayer online, or just single elder scrolls style?

There's one in steam now called The Hunter : primal that looks decent.


Ehh 54 on metacritic

There was some dinosaur game on reddit recently that looked really cool but I can't find it

carnivores:HD aka Carnivores Reborn is the game I was thinking of. Ps3 tho

one thing i cant find is if it is going to be a subscription or F2P. they gotta make money somehow and say they arent selling anything, not even cosmetics.

something i found on reddit about dev experience.

The studio was formed in 2014, I believe this is their first game. Saw the following about some of the team members though so they seem to have some experience.

And yup, various of the team's worked on major games in the past, including the Uncharted series among other franchises. Also, all of our dinosaurs were designed by the original creator of Primal Carnage!
Studio Wildcard was co-founded in 2014 by Jesse Rapczak, former Technical Art Director at Microsoft Game Studios
ARK's music is created by Gareth Coker, the composer of "Ori and the Blind Forest"!
