All Ark: Survival Evolved admin commands, cheats, and console codes

In Ark: Survival Evolved, there are many different ways to play the game. In the Single Player iteration, you can choose to speed things up, or play as is. However, sometimes things go wrong, and you’ll need to fix them with some quick admin commands. Admin commands are essentially cheats that you can use to change up the game how you want, as well as spawn in various items and dinosaurs. You can customize your experience by entering these commands and playing around with what they give you in the game’s giant sandbox.

You can use these commands in a single-player or in multiplayer, on a private server. A person just has to have the right permissions to enter commands, and this can be done through either the server settings or by using an admin password that you set.

Activating admin permissions in Ark: Survival Evolved

In single player games, you won’t need an admin password and can bypass the following step. If, however, you’re playing on a dedicated server or are on a hosted server, you’ll need to do the following: bring up the admin command bar, simply press the “Tab” key on PC, “L1 + R1 + Square + Triangle” on PlayStation, or “LB + RB + X + Y” on Xbox One. You will then need to activate cheats, which is done by entering:

enablecheats <password> 
Just replace “password” with whatever password is set for the admin password on the server.

This will then allow you to start entering cheats and commands for the game. Here are those commands that you can enter and what they’ll do.
