Console Commands (Cheats) for Administrators in ARK: Survival Evolved
May 21, 2024, 01:51 AM
With this guide on console commands and cheats in ARK: Survival Evolved, you can do almost anything you want. God mode, infinite stats, item creation, and summoning dinosaurs to any point on the map.
How to Enable Admin Commands
Admin commands and cheats need to be entered into the game console. You can open the ARK console by pressing the TAB key during gameplay.
How to Use Commands in Multiplayer
Most commands in this guide are classified by the game as cheats and can only be used by players with admin rights.
To gain admin privileges, you need to enter enablecheats followed by the server admin password in the console (e.g., enablecheats examplepassword69).
But even with admin rights, you will have to prefix each command with admincheat (e.g., admincheat god).
This is only required for multiplayer. For cheats in ARK's single-player mode, simply enter the desired command without the admincheat prefix, and it will work.
