Unlock a whole bunch of powerful abilities in Rage 2 with these optional ARK locations. You’ll find more that loot chests and resources to collect in the post-apocalyptic wilderness. The best stuff is all in ARK spheres — huge locked chambers that give you additional powers to play around with. Stuff like double-jumps, grav-darts, shields, and other handy skills are completely missable if you don’t stop and check these ARK locations out.
Several ARKs are required as you progress deeper into the story, but the ARKs plastered on the map below are 100% optional. If you miss out, you’ll be kicking yourself — some of these ARKs give you basic abilities that you’ll want ASAP, especially in the areas at the center of the map, or near your starting spot.
