Celebrating the Holidays with ARK!

This is the most wonderful time of the year and the dinosaurs' too! It's the 7th ARK Winter Wonderland event, and it's all about spreading holiday cheer and joy. A bunch of cool collectible rewards will be in the stockings, like unique creatures, emotes, skins, and chibis.

Participate in the Event!

You can join in the Wonderland fun until January 5th, 2023! RaptorClaus is sailing across the sky in his sleigh, delivering presents and Mistletoe to everyone who's been good. RaptorClaus may have coal for you if you've been bad. GachaClaus will be joining RaptorClaus this year for the holiday fun as well! You can trade your coal and mistletoes for skins, weapons, armor, costumes, or 12 adorable chibis if you've collected them.
