About

The Insect Swarm is a Fantasy-type creature introduced in the Genesis DLC. It behaves as a swarm rather than a single discrete animal, making it distinct from most standard creatures in how it occupies and interacts with the game world.

Admins working with spawn commands should use the entity ID InsectSwarmChar_BP_C with cheat SpawnDino or similar console commands to place it in the world. This is useful when testing encounter setups, populating a custom Genesis environment, or reproducing specific combat scenarios for players.

Because it is a swarm-based creature, standard taming and targeting mechanics may not apply in the same way as conventional creatures. Keep this in mind when scripting events or adjusting server creature population settings that reference this entity.

Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Dinos/Swarms/InsectSwarmChar_BP.InsectSwarmChar_BP'" 0 0 0 0.

How do I spawn the Insect Swarm Creature over RCON or on a dedicated server?
Send the same command through RCON or your control panel: admincheat Summon InsectSwarmChar_BP_C. Log in as admin first (enablecheats <AdminPassword>); if your tool already runs with admin context, drop the leading "cheat".
How do I spawn a wild Insect Swarm Creature?
Run cheat Summon InsectSwarmChar_BP_C in the admin console. Summon spawns a wild, untamed Insect Swarm Creature at your location. Use GMSummon instead if you want it pre-tamed.
What type of creature is the Insect Swarm Creature?
The Insect Swarm Creature is classified as a fantasy in ARK: Survival Ascended. The classification affects which spawn containers and taming rules apply to it.
Is the Insect Swarm Creature a DLC creature or part of the base game?
The Insect Swarm Creature is tied to the Genesis content, so that map or pack must be installed for it to appear naturally. Admins can still force-spawn it on any map with summon commands.
Which game is the Insect Swarm Creature from?
The Insect Swarm Creature is from ARK: Survival Ascended. Every ID, code, and command on this page is specific to ARK: Survival Ascended and its current live build.
How do I spawn a tamed Insect Swarm Creature?
Open the admin console and run cheat GMSummon "InsectSwarmChar_BP_C" 150. GMSummon spawns a tamed Insect Swarm 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.
What's the Insect Swarm Creature blueprint path?
The Insect Swarm Creature blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/Genesis/Dinos/Swarms/InsectSwarmChar_BP.InsectSwarmChar_BP'". Keep the wrapping quotes: SpawnDino and the other path-based admin commands need them to read the path as one argument. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
