A Glimpse at the “Genesis Part 2” Map

“Genesis Part 2” offers a fascinating map in terms of its geographical composition, fauna, and narrative. You will travel aboard a gigantic spaceship in search of a new planet to conquer. During your journey, you will have three distinct areas to care for and nurture your creatures. However, part of the ship has been corrupted by “Rockwell” and your mission will be to liberate the ship. Claim victory over various missions to stop the contamination.

 

Each area of the map has unique characteristics:

  • Eden: On the right side, you will find all the usual ARK creatures.
  • Hyperspace: Located in the center, this biome changes daily, always offering something new to explore.
  • Underground Zone: Here you will discover a vast ocean where you can breed and find marine creatures.

New Weapons and Armor

This DLC introduces a variety of new weapons and armor, but these are the most relevant:

  • Federation Armor: Similar to the Tek suit, but without the need for element shards to function.
