About

The Anglerfish is an aquatic fish creature found in the deeper ocean zones. Its bioluminescent lure makes it a recognizable presence in underwater environments, and it can be a hazard to players exploring those areas.

Admins can reference the entity ID Angler_Character_BP_C when using SpawnDino or similar console commands to place Anglerfish in the world. The name tag Angler can also be useful when working with commands that accept a shorter creature identifier.

The Anglerfish carries no DLC requirement, meaning it is available on the base game without any additional content packs. This makes it straightforward to include in custom spawner configs or loot table tests without worrying about player DLC access.
