ARK Park is a VR experience that will transport players to a futuristic dinosaur theme park where they can watch, learn about, and interact with more than a hundred Jurassic-period creatures and dinosaurs while they explore the park.

While ARK: Survival Evolved focuses on hunting and taming dinosaurs, the new ARK Park VR experience will give players the opportunity to truly appreciate and understand dinosaurs in their natural habitat.

ARK Park is designed with the concept of creating a simulated world that could never exist in reality,” said Shi Hai, CEO, Snail Games. “Instead of a linear plot structure, we created this world where players have the freedom to explore and approach every single detail in the virtual space at their own pace. We wanted to achieve a level of visual authenticity and player interactivity that will set a benchmark in the VR industry.”


Set in the Jurassic era, ARK Park is an interactive experience that will fulfill anyone’s dreams of entering a world where living, breathing dinosaurs are still roaming the earth. Players will participate in a multiplayer tour, so they can share the visceral gameplay and the thrill of witnessing dinosaurs up-close and personal. ARK Park aims to be the most true to life realization of a virtual reality attraction, filled to the brim with fascinating Jurassic creatures. Everything showcased in ARK Park is designed to be as realistic as possible to enhance the educational benefits of the experience.

“We’re excited about the partnership with Snail Games.” said Jeremy Stieglitz, Founder, Studio Wildcard. “By bringing the survival game into more of an educational theme park setting will broaden the reach of the ARK franchise, making it a stronger brand.”

Powered by the Unreal Engine 4 and a blend of real-life imagery and 3D textures, ARK Park delivers an incredibly engaging, immersive experience that’s sure to shake up the VR entertainment market.
