Waking up on ‘Aquatica,’ a crash-landed ARK submerged within a vast underwater biome system, survivors are thrust into exotic challenges never before encountered: extreme environmental hazards, crushing pressures, rapid currents, and a host of extraordinary creatures await within the mysterious depths. On Aquatica, survivors will uncover the potential source of Element and catch a glimpse of what the future holds for those bold enough to endure.

AN ARK CRASH-LANDED
Aquatica places survivors on a damaged ARK that has crash-landed deep within the Atlantic Ocean, predating the events of Extinction. The ARK’s systems failed to purge corruption upon impact, resulting in a fully flooded environment. Unnatural rifts caused by Pure Element have destabilized the surrounding Corrupted Element, leading to extreme transformations. Influenced by the Element itself, the ARK has evolved into a breathtaking, perilous new world to explore.
