ARK: Survival Ascended — Fantastic Tames Season 1
Fantastic Tames Season 1 creature pack: $9.99 DLC with Burrowbuck (available now), Cerberax (Q3 2026), and Enigmasaur (Q4 2026).
What Is Fantastic Tames Season 1?
Fantastic Tames Season 1 is a premium paid creature pack for ARK: Survival Ascended, launched May 20, 2026 at $9.99 USD on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Unlike map-specific Genesis content, Fantastic Tames work on all ASA maps including Genesis Part 1, The Island, Ragnarok, and cluster transfers.
The pack delivers three mystical anomaly creatures across 2026: Burrowbuck available immediately, Cerberax in Q3 2026, and Enigmasaur in Q4 2026. Purchasing Season 1 grants automatic access to each creature as Studio Wildcard completes development — no separate purchases required.
Burrowbuck — Available Now
Burrowbuck is a rabbit-like utility creature for guerrilla warfare and map control. Abilities include chained aerial jumps (up to three midair), Dirt Camo underground stealth, and a three-type burrow system: Trap Burrow (partially immobilizes small/medium creatures), Gateway Burrow (fast travel between up to six placed tunnels), and Hidey Hole (compact underground base with structure placement).
Burrows have 50,000 health each. Trap burrows allow up to four active placements; gateway burrows up to six. Hidey Hole supports cryopod deployment and remote entrance creation. See our Creatures Fantastic Tames guide for full taming and ability details.
Cerberax — Q3 2026
Cerberax is a towering three-headed frontline beast designed for coordinated multi-rider combat. Each head delivers devastating elemental attacks that chain into combo abilities. Studio Wildcard positions Cerberax for tribe combat and coordinated group PvP — distinct from Burrowbuck's solo guerrilla niche.
Cerberax releases automatically to Season 1 owners when Q3 2026 content drops complete. No additional purchase required beyond the original $9.99 Season 1 pass.
Enigmasaur — Q4 2026
Enigmasaur is a shape-shifting entity that stores forms of nearby creatures after observing from shadows, then transforms at will gaining copied abilities. Hoard multiple stolen forms simultaneously for tactical deception — mimic ARK's diverse roster and strike when enemies least expect it.
Enigmasaur completes Fantastic Tames Season 1 in Q4 2026. Future Fantastic Tames seasons may follow if Season 1 succeeds commercially.
