Ark II will also feature Vin Diesel as a hero character, Santiago, who will also be a crossover character in the upcoming "Ark: The Animated Series." While Vin Diesel will lend his acting talents to Ark II, he is also a massive fan of the franchise, now serving as an executive producer on the game's sequel and having logged over 1,000 hours in Ark: Survival Evolved

Never mix business with pleasure. It might turn out ok, but boy did that CG look rough. I guess he can afford to have fun projects though so it doesn't matter if it doesn't do well.

He he was a part of quite a few games though.

I would not be surprised if a some of those actors are in the project only because Vin Diesel is involved and is putting his name behind it.

I don't love Vin as an actor, but I do love that his entire career is basically him trying to get more Riddick media made.

The Updated Engine losing all the old quirks from Ark and a better character creator would be a fantastic start. Game was fun and there is a fantastic Modding Community that keeps adding new and exciting things all the time.

I bet for most their agents saw the exposure it would get them to a young audience and immediately jumped in, although I'm sure money is backing this to a nice salary as well.

Does this mean we can get music written by the man himself into the game? His single a few months ago was a banger.

It was not

I'm surprised so many people are surprised by this considering he is the Wheelman after all. He had a game studio that was looking like it could go places but I guess that was over a decade ago so people may not realize the he actually is a dude that's into games. There was some interview back then where he sounded like your typical neogaf poster of the era.
