About

The Snowball Emote is a consumable unlock that teaches a player character the snowball throw emote when used. Once learned, the emote remains permanently available in the player's emote list.

Admins typically hand this out during seasonal events or as a reward. Since it has no blueprint variant and does not stack, spawning one copy at a time is standard. Use the GFI code to generate it in-game; the item will consume itself when the player uses it to learn the emote.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the class name for the Snowball Emote?
The class name for the Snowball Emote is PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball_C. Class names end in _C and identify the item's blueprint at runtime, which makes them useful for spawn tools, mods, and RCON macros.
How do I enable admin commands to spawn the Snowball Emote?

In cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 1 0 0, the code identifies the Snowball Emote, then the three numbers are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag (0 = item, 1 = blueprint). So it spawns one standard Snowball Emote.

Why isn't my Snowball Emote spawn command working?
Check three things: admin access is enabled (enablecheats on servers), the code is typed exactly (PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball), and all three trailing numbers are present. Copying cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 1 0 0 directly from this page avoids the most common mistakes.
How do I add the Snowball Emote to a starter kit or loadout?
Include cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 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.

Yes. The Snowball Emote'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.
What's the difference between the Snowball Emote GFI code and its blueprint path?
The GFI code PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball is a short name for quick spawning; the blueprint path "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Consumables/BaseBPs/PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball.PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball'" is the full engine reference used by GiveItem and spawn tools. Both point at the same Snowball Emote.
How do I open the console to spawn the Snowball Emote?
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 Snowball Emote spawn code from this page.
How do I give myself the Snowball Emote with a cheat command?
Open the admin console and run cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 1 0 0. That gives you one Snowball Emote instantly. The three numbers after the code are quantity, quality, and blueprint flag. Raise the first to spawn a stack, or set the last to 1 to receive it as a blueprint instead of a finished item. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
Can I get the Snowball Emote without spawning it?
Yes. The Snowball Emote 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.
What is the blueprint path for the Snowball Emote?
The full blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Consumables/BaseBPs/PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball.PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball'". Paste it into GiveItem to spawn the exact item: cheat GiveItem "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Items/Consumables/BaseBPs/PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball.PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball'" 1 0 0. Copy it exactly, because the path is case sensitive and must keep its wrapping quotes.
How do I spawn multiple Snowball Emote at once?
Change the quantity argument, the first number after the code. For example cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 25 0 0 spawns 25 of the Snowball Emote. Stacks respect the item's maximum stack size.
How do I spawn a higher-quality Snowball Emote?
The second number is quality, where 0 is primitive and higher values roll toward ascendant. cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 1 100 0 attempts a top tier Snowball Emote. Quality only affects items that support tiers; on others it's ignored.
How do I spawn the Snowball Emote as a blueprint instead of a finished item?
Set the final argument to 1: cheat gfi PrimalItemConsumable_UnlockEmote_Snowball 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 Snowball Emote a DLC item or part of the base game?
The Snowball Emote is part of the base ARK: Survival Ascended game, so no DLC or map pack is required to spawn or craft it.
