ARK Park is set to become a virtual Jurassic Park with VR support. After some delays, the game now has a release date for PSVR.
ARK Park was originally supposed to be released in December 2017 for PlayStation VR. However, developer Snail-Games postponed the launch of the virtual Jurassic Park to Spring 2018. A specific release date has not yet been announced.
However, a release date for Ark Park has now been announced.
Japan Release in March, German Version Coming Soon
The new release date for ARK Park is March 22, 2018. However, this date only applies to the Japan version of the virtual reality dinosaur zoo.
The local version is expected to be released soon after the Japan release. In addition to the standard edition, there will be a collector’s edition of Ark Park with a T-Rex skeleton DLC.
Ark Park is a spin-off of the survival MMO ARK: Survival Evolved. Instead of fighting for survival against other players and hungry prehistoric creatures, here you can leisurely visit a virtual Jurassic Park. The game is designed as a virtual reality application, allowing you to experience over 100 dinosaurs via VR headset.
You can also take impressive photos of the dinosaurs in the park with the “SnapMode” feature. In addition to the release on PlayStation VR, a version for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift will be available later.
Killing Dinos and Exploring the Island in Action Mode
If the virtual zoo seems too mild and boring, you can head to a more dangerous part of the park and experience wild fights. In this game mode, the dinosaurs run amok, and you have to set up defense towers in a tower defense style to defend yourself against the beasts.
Additionally, you can explore the dino island in this game mode, discover new locations, and solve puzzles.
Here you can find first gameplay impressions of Ark Park.
