Ark Lost Island Giga Location and Taming

An in-depth guide to help you easily find the giga location and the best taming method for Ark Lost Island.

Giga is the largest Dino in Ark Lost Island, even bigger than the Spino and Rex. This predator can take out anything that comes in its way, which is why it is called an apex predator.

Giganotosaurus is an aggressive creature, but many players still love to tame it, so we prepared this guide for you so you can find all the details about the Giga Location and Taming in Ark Lost Island.

How to Tame a Giga?

For taming, find a tall cliff or a huge rock, build a 10-15 pillar-tall tower, and stay on top of it. Once you locate a Giga, start shooting it and note that these creatures cannot destroy metal.

TIP

If you’re using tames, we recommend using a dino with high efficiencies like a Raptor, high base health like Thyla, or high base speed like Gallimimus. Or you could simply be using a flying dino to stay out of Giga’s reach. This method is used when you are trying to knock out the Giga.

As the Giga cannot reach you, it will run away; you need to get down from the pillar, build a trap, and shoot the dino to lure it into the trap.

How to Breed Giga?

For Giga breeding, keep the pair close by, hitch them to an s-plus hitching post, and set their behavior to enable wandering. You can also constantly whistle at them to stop them from moving and mate.

Once the mating completes, the female will drop an egg. Take the egg to the hatchery; it takes some time for the egg to hatch but once it does disable wandering on it and feed it raw meat.

Giga Spawn Command

If you’re finding it hard to locate the Giga on Ark Lost Island, open up the console command box by pressing TAB on your keyboard, but if you’re playing on PlayStation, you’ll need to hold down L1R1Square, and Triangle at once, and similarly, on Xbox, hold down, LBRBX, and Y at once. After the console opens, type “admincheat Summon Gigant_Character_BP_C” and press enter.
