About

The Harpoon Launcher is a craftable ranged weapon designed for underwater and surface combat. It fires harpoons that can pierce targets and is effective against both creatures and players. Admins typically spawn it to test balance, equip admin teams, or outfit a tribe with endgame weaponry.

Since this weapon does not stack, each spawn grants a single unit. Use the GFI code to add it to your inventory or directly to a player. There is no blueprint variant available for this item.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Harpoon Launcher spawn command work in single-player and multiplayer?
Yes, the command is identical in both. Single-player has cheats enabled by default; multiplayer just requires an admin login first. The Harpoon Launcher then spawns the same way.
What's the difference between the Harpoon Launcher GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon.PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Harpoon Launcher.
What is the Harpoon Launcher used for?
The Harpoon Launcher is a craftable ranged weapon designed for underwater and surface combat. It fires harpoons that can pierce targets and is effective against both creatures and players. Admins typically spawn it to test balance, equip admin teams, or outfit a tribe with endgame weaponry.
What is the GFI code for the Harpoon Launcher?
The GFI code for the Harpoon Launcher is PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon. GFI matches the item by its short blueprint name, so cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon 1 0 0 is the fastest way to spawn it without typing the full blueprint path.
What's the full blueprint path of the Harpoon Launcher?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon.PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon.PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
What do the numbers in the Harpoon Launcher spawn command mean?
In cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon 1 0 0, the code identifies the Harpoon Launcher, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Harpoon Launcher.
How do I spawn the Harpoon Launcher as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon 1 0 1. The last number is the blueprint flag, where 0 gives the crafted item and 1 gives its blueprint (for craftable items; on items with no blueprint the flag is simply ignored).
Is the Harpoon Launcher spawn code on GameServersCodex accurate?
Yes. The Harpoon Launcher's class name, GFI code, item ID, and blueprint path are reproduced exactly from the live game data and re-checked each patch, so you can copy them straight into your console.
Can I get the Harpoon Launcher without spawning it?
Yes. The Harpoon Launcher can also be obtained through normal ARK: Survival Ascended progression. Admins usually spawn it for speed when testing, running events, or outfitting players, which is what the commands on this page are for.
How do I open the console to spawn the Harpoon Launcher?
On PC, press Tab to open the admin console, paste the command, and press Enter. On Xbox and PlayStation, open the pause menu and use the on-screen command bar. Then drop in the Harpoon Launcher spawn code from this page.
How do I spawn multiple Harpoon Launcher at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Harpoon Launcher. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Harpoon Launcher?
In single-player, cheats are on by default. On a dedicated or hosted server, log in as admin first with enablecheats <AdminPassword>, then run the Harpoon Launcher spawn command. Without admin access the console rejects it.
Is the Harpoon Launcher blueprint path case-sensitive?
Yes. "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Weapons/PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon.PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon'" must be typed exactly, including capitalization and the wrapping quotes. Copy it from this page to avoid a typo that returns an empty spawn.
What's the Harpoon Launcher class name?

How do I add the Harpoon Launcher to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItem_WeaponHarpoon 1 0 0 in your server's kit or spawn script, and set the quantity argument to hand out multiples. Pair it with other item commands from the Codex to build a full loadout.

Can I spawn the Harpoon Launcher over RCON or on a dedicated server?
