About

The Archelon is a large aquatic reptile native to ARK: Survival Ascended. As a creature of the Reptile type, it occupies a distinct niche among the game's marine fauna and can be tamed, making it relevant for server admins setting up custom taming events or testing aquatic gameplay scenarios.

To spawn an Archelon, use the entity ID Archelon_Character_BP_ASA_C with the SpawnDino command. This is the reliable method when you need precise control over placement, level, or quantity, useful for populating test servers or restoring a creature that was unintentionally wiped.

Because this creature is part of the base Survival Ascended content, it requires no additional DLC beyond the base game and should be available on any standard ASA map without extra configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn a wild Archelon Creature?

How do I spawn a tamed Archelon Creature?
Open the admin console and run cheat GMSummon "Archelon_Character_BP_ASA_C" 150. GMSummon spawns a tamed Archelon Creature at the given level (150 here); change the number to set the level. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.

How do I spawn the Archelon Creature over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Send the same command through RCON or your control panel: admincheat Summon Archelon_Character_BP_ASA_C. Log in as admin first (enablecheats <AdminPassword>); if your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat".

Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/ASA/Dinos/Archelon/Dinos/Archelon_Character_BP_ASA.Archelon_Character_BP_ASA'" 0 0 0 0.
