Who Does Michelle Yeoh Play in the ARK: Survival Ascended Lost Colony Expansion?

Studio Wildcard released the announcement trailer for the Lost Colony expansion to ARK: Survival Ascended on Monday, March 17 through its YouTube channel for the game. The trailer starts with Helena recalling how she apparently left Mei Yin, before showing Mei Yin in a snowy landscape fighting off monsters on her own. After defeating her enemy in a harrowing battle, Mei Yi looks at a foreboding castle looming over a city, preparing for her next adventure and inevitably formidable opponents. The bulk of the trailer is an anime cinematic produced by MAPPA, the celebrated Japanese animation studio behind Jujutsu Kaisen and the final season of Attack on Titan.

In the YouTube description of the Lost Colony announcement trailer, Studio Wildcard describes the expansion as the bridge between ARK: Extinction and ARK: Genesis, with the long-planned ARK 2. Originally announced at The Game Awards in December 2020, ARK 2 was initially planned for a late 2023 release before moving to an indeterminate window in the future. This suggests that not only is more news about ARK 2 imminent, but that Lost Colony will help shed some light on the eagerly anticipated sequel.

ARK: Lost Colony will begin taking preorders in June 2025 for an eventual November 2025 release, with those who preorder receiving access to preview content from the expansion. Lost Colony is priced at $29.99 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. In the meantime, stay tuned for more official word on ARK 2 and the second set of episodes for ARK: The Animated Series, as well as additional updates to ARK: Survival Ascended.

And that’s who Michelle Yeoh plays in ARK: Survival Ascended.
