Stu­dio Wild­card has released anoth­er patch for Ark Sur­vival Evolved on con­soles. This patch brings the Egg­cel­lent Adven­ture event and con­tains a few fixes. 

“Dur­ing Egg­cel­lent Adven­ture, sur­vivors will be able to col­lect spe­cial “Bun­ny Eggs” across the ARK from wild Bun­ny Dodo’s and Bun­ny Ovi­rap­tor’s. These Bun­ny Eggs can paint or used in spe­cial Cook­ing Pot recipes to craft hol­i­day-themed items such as Bun­ny Ears, a Bun­ny Cos­tume for the Pro­coptodon, are two brand new cos­met­ics: the Knit­ted Chick Hat and Egg Shell Hat for both sur­vivor and dino!”- Stu­dio Wildcard

• Wild crea­tures roam­ing the ARKs will find them­selves feel­ing egg­cel­lent, sport­ing bright colours of Green, Magen­ta, Yel­low, and Blue.
• Wild Dodos are replaced by Bun­ny Dodos  — with ears, tam­ing dis­abled, and drop 50% con­sum­able dodo eggs and 50% Bun­ny eggs
• Wild Ovi­rap­tors are replaced by Bun­ny Ovi­rap­tors — with ears, tam­ing dis­abled, and drop 50% con­sum­able Ovi­rap­tor eggs and 50% Bun­ny Eggs
• Bun­ny Eggs can be placed on the ground and painted
• Bun­ny Eggs will expire after approx­i­mate­ly two weeks from inven­to­ries, and placed eggs will imme­di­ate­ly decay once the event is turned off.
• Run your pri­vate serv­er with ‘-ActiveEvent=Easter’ to turn on the event
• Run­ning the same serv­er with­out ‑ActiveEvent=Easter will delete all placed egg structures
• PC play­ers can use Steam > ARK > Prop­er­ties > Gen­er­al > Set Launch Options and paste in ‑ActiveEvent=Easter to expe­ri­ence the event in sin­gle play­er/non-ded­i­cat­ed/­play­er ded­i­cat­ed worlds. You must enable the event your­self in these modes.
• Event is not avail­able in Prim­i­tive Plus, or sin­gle play­er con­sole worlds, non-ded­i­cat­ed con­sole servers, or play­er ded­i­cat­ed con­sole servers. Con­sole can how­ev­er spawn and use the new cos­met­ics with the com­mand below.
