Open the console with ~, paste, hit Enter. All Procoptodon commands ↓ — tamed, leveled, variants, one-tap copy.

Spawn a tamed Procoptodon at any level

gmsummon spawns it already tamed. Set the level below — it's the pre-tame level, and ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus on top, so the final creature lands higher. Change the number, copy, paste.

cheat gmsummon "Procoptodon_Character_BP_C" 150
≈ level 225 once tamed

A gmsummon-tamed Procoptodon still needs a saddle — it isn't force-tamed. Want it instantly, level aside? Use cheat SummonTamed Procoptodon_Character_BP_C (random level).

ARK Procoptodon FAQ — Ability, Uses & Spawn Commands

What does the Procoptodon do in ARK?
Has a marsupial pouch that can carry a human passenger or small creature/baby dino — the passenger in the pouch gains +169 hyperthermal and hypothermal insulation. When a baby dino is carried in the pouch of a mate-boosted female Procoptodon, imprinting actions grant 2x the normal affinity, and the baby's food consumption is reduced. Procoptodon is a herbivore. Knockout taming via tranquilizer arrows/darts. Offers one of the strongest imprint-speed boosts in the game when used correctly with mate boost. Its directed jump can reach over walls without destroying them.
How do you use the Procoptodon's ability in ARK?
To place a creature or player in the pouch, use the radial menu while interacting with the Procoptodon, or press C / Right Stick. The pouch passenger has limited visibility (similar to sitting in a chair). The directional jump is activated by holding the Jump key and aiming — the Procoptodon takes reduced fall damage from all heights. The dropkick (knockback attack) is available via a separate action key and knocks back significantly larger creatures. The 2x imprint bonus requires both a mate-boosted female and the feeding bottle icon to be visible during the imprinting action — confirm this before imprinting to get the bonus. Level Weight and Speed for use as a raid mount (the pouch lets a second tribe member fire weapons during a raid). Level Health and Melee for its knockback combat role. Carrying a Lystrosaurus in the pouch during hunting provides a temporary XP buff to nearby tames after petting.
What is the Procoptodon good for in ARK?
Accelerated baby imprinting (2x bonus in mate-boosted female's pouch), two-person raid mount (second rider fires from the pouch), extreme-temperature survival (insulation bonus), base infiltration via high directed jump, knockback combat against large creatures.
What is the Procoptodon spawn command in ARK?
Open the console with ~ and enter cheat summon Procoptodon_Character_BP_C to spawn a wild Procoptodon in ARK: Survival Ascended. For a tamed one at a level you choose, use cheat gmsummon "Procoptodon_Character_BP_C" 150. On a server, run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> first and keep the cheat prefix.
How do I spawn a tamed Procoptodon at a specific level?
Use cheat gmsummon "Procoptodon_Character_BP_C" <level>. The number is the pre-tame level — ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus, so a value of 100 ends up around level 150. To hit a target level, divide it by 1.5. A gmsummon creature still needs a saddle to ride.
What's the difference between summon, SummonTamed and gmsummon?
summon drops a wild Procoptodon at a random level. SummonTamed gives you a tamed one but at a random level you can't set. gmsummon spawns it tamed at the level you specify — the one most people want.
Do ARK spawn commands work in single player and on servers?
Yes. In single player the cheat prefix is optional and no password is needed. On a dedicated or non-dedicated session you must run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> once, then prefix each spawn with cheat. Set that admin password without hand-editing files using our free ARK config generators.
Are there other versions of the Procoptodon?
Yes — Procoptodon has 1 spawnable variant (R-Procoptodon). Each has its own class name, listed with copy-paste commands in the variants table above.
