And as of December 1st, the Ark developers have added a new prehistoric reptile to their not so Jurassic environment.

Meet the Oviraptor, a sneaky little egg snatcher designed for just that.  Once the Oviraptor digs up the eggs located in the player’s camp, it will do one of two things: Eat them, or bring them to its master, if it happens to have one.

“In an incredible feat of natural selection,” developer Stuido Wildcard comments on an additional feature of this dinosaur. “Oviraptor seems to emit a chemical pheromone that affects many creatures as an aphrodisiac.  Mated creatures are much more likely to… ‘create’ new fertilized eggs while Oviraptor is around, which allows the Oviraptor to go about its business unperturbed. They also make quite adorable sounds, so many children simply like to keep them as rather strange companions.”

Along with other updates such as a special Ghillie-suit, new “modern structures”, and new performance improvements, players have a lot to look forward to when fighting, and taming their way through the world of ARK.
