Ark: Survival Evolved has kicked off its Winter Wonderland 6 event, which sees RaptorClaus and GachaClaus returning alongside new winter-themed goodies that players can collect between its start and end dates.
Ark: Survival Evolved’s Winter Wonderland 6 event’s start and end dates are separated by a bit over three weeks, during which you can hop on eligible servers and benefit from higher harvesting, taming, and breeding rates, but also grow your collection with five new chibis, skins, and other cosmetic items.
Ark: Survival Evolved’s Winter Wonderland 6 event has locked down its start date to December 14. If you’re reading this article, it should be already live. Its end date is set to occur on January 6, 2022, making for some rather eventful holidays, if you plan to spend them taming dinos.

The whole event revolves around RaptorClaus taking to the skies when midnight occurs in-game, dropping presents that hide high-end loot, mistletoe, or coal. The latter two can be traded with GachaClaus, who roams all of the game’s maps, in exchange for holiday-themed items.
