Extinction takes place on a devastated Earth, offering a post-apocalyptic landscape with unique challenges and opportunities. This map introduces corrupted creatures, element-infused areas, and massive titan bosses that roam the world.
Extinction features several distinct environments within a ruined Earth:
The ruined city center serves as a relatively safe starting area. Features abandoned buildings, bridges, and infrastructure for unique base locations. Lower-level creatures spawn here, making it ideal for beginners.
The barren area surrounding the city and domes. Highly dangerous with corrupted creatures and element veins. Contains valuable resources but presents constant threats from corrupted creatures and environmental hazards.
A massive dome containing a preserved desert ecosystem. Home to unique resources and creatures similar to Scorched Earth. Features desert-specific challenges like heat and limited water.
A preserved arctic environment within a protective dome. Contains cold-weather creatures and resources. Requires specialized gear to handle extreme cold temperatures.
A lush forest environment protected within a dome. Features abundant plant life, resources, and creatures. Most hospitable of the domes with plentiful resources.
A hidden forest beneath the wasteland. Accessible through various entrances, offering unique resources and relative safety from surface threats.
Extinction introduces several new gameplay elements:
• Element Corruption: Areas and creatures corrupted by element, presenting new dangers
• Orbital Supply Drops (OSDs): Defense events that reward valuable loot
• Element Nodes: Harvestable resource nodes that trigger defense events
• City Terminals: Crafting stations for Extinction-specific items
• Titan Bosses: Massive creatures that roam the map and can be temporarily tamed
• Enforcers & Scouts: Mechanical creatures that can be crafted and tamed
• Cryopods: Item for storing and transporting tamed creatures
• Gacha Creatures: Living resource generators that produce crystals containing random items
Essential knowledge for thriving on Extinction:
• Start in the Sanctuary (city) area for the safest early game experience
• Tame a Velonasaur early for protection against corrupted creatures
• Build bases on elevated structures in the city to avoid ground predators
• Craft Enforcer and Scout companions for additional protection
• Tame Gacha creatures for passive resource generation
• Use element veins for resources but be prepared for waves of corrupted creatures
• Attempt Orbital Supply Drops only when well-equipped and with strong tames
• Explore the domes for resources specific to each biome
Where to find essential resources on Extinction:
Element veins in the wasteland, drops from corrupted creatures, and Orbital Supply Drops
Harvested from lamp posts in the city or from certain creatures
Abundant throughout the city from destroyed vehicles and structures
Crafted from scrap metal or looted from city structures
Crafted from organic polymer or harvested from certain city structures
Found in the desert dome or from certain creatures
City structures, wasteland rocks, and within all domes
Wasteland rocks, city structures, and within all domes
Extinction introduces several exclusive creatures with special abilities:
• Titans (Desert, Ice, Forest): Massive boss creatures that can be temporarily tamed
• Gacha: Produces crystals containing random resources and items
• Snow Owl: Flying creature with healing abilities and thermal vision
• Velonasaur: Defensive creature with rapid-fire projectile attacks
• Managarmr: Agile creature capable of gliding and ice breath attacks
• Enforcer: Craftable robot with teleportation abilities
• Scout: Small surveillance drone for scouting and reconnaissance
• Corrupted Creatures: Aggressive variants of standard creatures that drop element dust
These events provide valuable loot but require defending against waves of corrupted creatures:
●
White (Easy): Manageable with mid-tier tames and basic gear
●
Blue (Medium): Requires strong tames and good gear
●
Yellow (Hard): Challenging even for well-equipped teams
●
Red (Very Hard): Extremely difficult, requiring top-tier tames and gear
●
Purple (Impossible): Nearly impossible without multiple players and the strongest possible tames
Similar to OSDs but focused on element harvesting:
●
Blue (Low): Yields small amounts of element with moderate difficulty
●
Yellow (Medium): Provides more element with increased challenge
●
Red (High): Offers substantial element rewards but extremely difficult
Massive creatures that roam specific regions of the map:
●
Desert Titan: Flying creature found in the Desert Dome, controls flocks of smaller creatures
●
Ice Titan: Massive ice elemental in the Snow Dome with powerful frost attacks
●
Forest Titan: Tree-like giant in the Forest Dome that can uproot and throw trees
●
King Titan (Final Boss): Ultimate challenge accessed through a terminal in the city
Recommended places to establish your presence:
• City Skyscrapers (70,50): Elevated and relatively safe from ground threats
• Sunken Forest (45,75): Hidden underground area with resources and protection
• Forest Dome Interior (25,60): Abundant resources with moderate danger
• City Terminal Area (50,50): Central location with access to terminals
• Desert Dome Entrance (65,35): Strategic position between wasteland and dome
Extinction offers a unique ARK experience with its post-apocalyptic setting, challenging mechanics, and exclusive creatures. The combination of ruined city landscapes, preserved biome domes, and wasteland areas creates diverse gameplay opportunities. Whether defending against corrupted creatures, harvesting element veins, or taking on the mighty Titans, Extinction provides a challenging endgame experience that ties together the ARK storyline.
