DragonTopia will turn ARK upside down – a non-canon expansion that fundamentally changes taming and creature interaction. Especially dragons are set to become independent partners with personality.​

A Mythical World of Firestone and Sky

DragonTopia promises a world full of firestone and sky magic that completely stands apart from the main storyline. The focus is on a new type of creature interaction that goes far beyond classic taming.​

Jeremy Stieglitz explained in the interview: Dragons should think independently, develop their own will, and feel like real partners – not robots.​

The New Bonding System

The expansion introduces these revolutions:

• Bonding System: Build deep emotional connections with dragons​

• Befriending Mechanic: “Friend” dragons through building trust

• Character Development: Your dragons grow individually and develop personalities​

Important: The classic taming mechanic remains unchanged for other creatures. DragonTopia only tests the “best buddies” system with dragons.​

Why This Will Change ARK

Imagine: Your dragon learns from your battles, develops preferences for certain flight maneuvers, or even occasionally refuses to take you into danger. This creates an emotional bond that ARK has lacked so far.​

The expansion could bridge the gap between pet simulator and strategic action RPG – with dragons as intelligent comrades instead of mere mounts.​

DragonTopia turns dragons into true companions and could become ARK’s most emotional expansion ever.
