Exploring the ARK Extinction DLC for Nintendo Switch

Extinction ARK DLC Map – A Land of Corruption

ARK Extinction DLC great city location

Upon entering the ARK Extinction map for ARK: Survival Evolved, you’ll discover that the map itself is unique compared to most worlds. At two corners of the map, biome domes sit that you and your friends can enter, and inside, you’ll discover brand new creatures and mysteries to uncover. In the other two corners of the map, lie the Forbidden Zone and Sunken Forest, dangerous places that require caution when entering.
 
Within the heart of the Extinction ARK map, the Sanctuary sits covered with mysterious technological creatures, protecting the city from any dangers that may approach. Surrounded by it all is the Wasteland, a desolate place covered in devastation and few creatures, where Sulfur Fields can be found. To learn more about this ravaged ARK map, you can follow our explorer’s Extinction ARK guide to uncovering more about the biomes and what’s within them!

New ARK Dinosaurs and Creatures in the ARK DLC Extinction

ARK Velonsaur dinosaur

During your adventures into each new biome, you’ll come across new creatures with almost all of them ready to attack you on sight! Below, we’ll cover a few of the vicious ARK creatures and dinosaurs you’ll meet.

  • Velonasaur – Living within the Desert Dome, the Velonasaur isn’t the fastest creature in ARK Extinction, but while slow, it more than makes up for this with its deadly set of spikes that it shoots toward players. These projectiles can inflict massive damage if they hit, making the Velonasaur a force to be reckoned with in the wild. If you see one, prepare for a difficult fight or run and hope you can outrun it in time.
  •  

  • Snow Owl – The Snow Owl is a majestic and graceful creature, soaring through the sky of the Snow Biome where it resides. With its remarkable ability to track prey using its antennae as heat vision, this feathered predator will swiftly dive down to attack. If tamed, the Snow Owl is extremely helpful, capable of traveling by air, carrying resources, and even engaging in fierce battles with other creatures.
  •  

  • Managarmr – Sharing the Snow Dome with the Snow Owl, the Managarmr is a master of aerial acrobatics, flitting around players with lightning-fast speed while dealing modest damage. Although it may not be the mightiest beast in the ARK, its incredible speed and agility make it a prime choice for quick transportation.

For a more in-depth look at these creatures, you can see our ARK Extinction server guide to meet all 11 creatures in this corrupted DLC for Nintendo Switch!
