This past weekend, gamers showed up to share their passion for all things video games at IGN Live, an in-person, fan-focused event celebrating gaming culture, and Snail Games' developer Studio Sirens was on stage during the live broadcast and present on the exhibition floor with an ARK: Aquatica-themed booth.

On Saturday, Head of Studio Sirens and Lead Game Designer Matt Kohl took to the IGN Live main stage to discuss the decade-long journey of the dino-survival ARK franchise. During the panel, Kohl surprised fans by revealing a brand new trailer from the upcoming Steam DLC for ARK: Survival Evolved, ARK: Aquatica, a non-canonical underwater expansion to the original ARK title from 2015. The trailer showcased first-look footage captured in-game, showing off large underwater biomes, and several of the 20 new creatures which can be tamed by players. The trailer features original music by Gareth Coker, composer of the ARK: Survival Evolved theme.




Kohl also spoke about the 10 Year anniversary celebration currently running in ARK: Survival Ascended which recently received an update to Unreal Engine 5.5 on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, as well as the highly anticipated expansion Lost Colony coming June 18 to ARK: Survival Ascended. The full Developer Panel from IGN Live can be viewed HERE. An infographic with play stats from both ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended is available HERE.

At the ARK: Aquatica booth on the expo floor, attendees lined up to ride the mechanical Monodon - a narwhal-like creature featured in the upcoming DLC. By posting videos of their Monodon rides on social media, IGN Live attendees were eligible for a chance at splitting a prize pool of $10,000.
