A brand new dinosaur called Tropeognathus has just arrived in Ark: Survival Evolved, and indeed many players will certainly want to tame one. Before they can do that, though, they must first find a Tropeognathus in Ark, and that may be easier said than done. Indeed, this new flying creature appears to be quite an elusive beast, and this guide looks to assist those fans that are currently trying to track down a Tropeognathus in this popular survival game.
To start, the Tropeognathus's location in Ark: Survival Evolved is currently not the same on PC as it is on consoles, and players will thus need to hunt with their particular platform in mind. Specifically, fans playing on PC will need to look exclusively to the new Crystal Isles map when trying to track down this dinosaur, and those playing on consoles can find one on any map where flying creatures can appear. Notably, this will change when Crystal Isles is available on consoles later this year.
With that said, PC players should turn their attention to the coastal areas of the Crystal Isles when searching for a Tropeognathus, and looking around 80 (lat) 20 (lon), 60 (lat) 60 (lon), and 80 (lat) 80 (lon) is recommended. Console players should also have their eyes on the coast, though they will be hunting on the Island, Center, Scorched Earth, Ragnarok, Extinction, and Valguero maps, and it is worth mentioning that Tropeognathus appears to spawn in the exact same locations as Tapejara.
Ark: Survival Evolved - Tropeognathus Spawn Code
To note, even after Ark: Survival Evolved players know the details on Tropeognathus's locations, it can still be quite challenging to find one. This may leave some fans looking to bypass the process with a Tropeognathus spawn command, which can be entered in the admin command menu after enabling cheats, and here is just such a code: admincheat summon Tropeognathus_Character_BP_C
With Ark: Survival Evolved currently free on the Epic Games Store, many new players are sure to be trying out this title for the very first time. While these new fans may not be quite ready to take on Tropeognathus, hopefully this guide will have helped any established players that were having trouble locating this flying dinosaur.
Ark: Survival Evolved is available for Android, iOS, Linux, PC, PlayStation 4, Switch, and Xbox One.
