It may be larger in terms of number of players or size of world but as @DMKano has pointed out, the devs have described it as a survival style game much like ARK.

Man that looks cool. I resisted playing Ark for a year after people told me to try. Best in sandbox and survival. It's so creepy not knowing what is out there in the darkness or people hiding in the jungle. Only thing I didn't like was that you couldn't learn all the techs (w/e they are called). Guess that is understandable though.

The thing I didnt like, getting hungry and thirsty sooo fast
Is there an archive to the old forums so we can see some of the 100 page forum posts about this game from 2005-2006? They were some of the more interesting reads ever on these forums.
Its the same map from the original , i believe they stated this , and its 42,000 Kilometers.. If i am remembering correctly .. ANd the original world was MAssive ..
Found it ..........
Dark and Light, also known as Savage Horizon, is an
absolutely massive sandbox MMO that features 40,000 square kilometers of
world, scads of classes, races, and ways to make your mark on the
world. The reworked version of the game has been upgraded to the Unreal 4
engine and might have new features such as additional factions.

That was the OLD Dark and Light, we have no idea how big this new game is, it has been completely rewritten. We will just have to wait and see what they come up with. Trying to make comparisons to the original game is just ridiculous.

Shen Yan: Apart
from the name, we also wanted to keep the core features and massive
world intact. Dark and Light was considered a breakthrough MMORPG when it first came out,
featuring one of the largest open worlds and a unique fantasy theme; it
got a lot of attention from players due to the freedom this world could
offer.
Another interview on 7/30/16.... The title is being touted as a "true sandbox" in which players can
explore 40,000 km² of land and build houses or even create entire
kingdoms. Tons of different roles will be available for players to take
on, including fighter, hunter, and treasure hunter.
So we do have an idea , well we know exactlyt how big the World is 40,000 sq Kilometers ..You may want to rethink the ridiculous part

Im almost 100% positive that it will be alot smaller (for EA), and you cant compare it with the old one. Closer the launch we getting more info and seems it will be a survival game.
Players per server will be under 1000 (could be 50-100, 500-1000 etc)
Cant believe we would have such a big world for only around 1000 players.

I think he means, everyone can make a char on it but only x amount of ppl can enter the server, after that maybe a que, my guess.

So if there actually is up to 1000 people online at a time thats a pretty good amount, unless of course spread out across too much area.
Which on the PVP server might not be a bad thing either.
Then again, might be a challenge to play with your friends if you are locked out.

Edit:
As for similarity to Ark, I can't comment any further. My MMO infos mostly based on here, I rarely visit reddit for such things.
