Watch: Ark: The Animated Series Previews Possibly The Biggest American Animated Series Of All-Time Ahead Of 2023 Bow

Christmas has come early with this crazy ass trailer for the upcoming new series, Ark: The Animated Series, based on the video game Ark: Survival Evolved.

The series will consist of 14 episodes set in various points of history that flesh out the world of Ark: Survival Evolved on The Island. There is no confirmation on whether or not this series will continue through the Story DLC such as Scorched Earth, Aberration, and Extinction.

Featuring an unparalled voice cast with the talents of Michelle Yeoh, Gerard Butler, Russell Crowe, and Executive Produced by Vin Diesel, ARK: The Animated Series is an adaptation of the hit video game. In a sweeping story that spans eons of human & world history, 21st century paleontologist Helena Walker finds herself resurrected on a mysterious primeval land after tragedy. There she must learn to survive and find new allies, or die again at the hands of ruthless warlords — all while trying to uncover the true nature of their strange new world. ARK: The Animated Series will release on a to-be-announced platform in 2023. Join us then for an ageless adventure beyond life & death itself!
