As far as ARK events go, 2019's Eggcellent Adventure is pretty much par for the course. There's nothing incredibly exciting here in terms of new features, but it's still a fun opportunity to get some limited cosmetics and tame rare Dinos. Coming off the major Homestead update in March, though, survivors should feel pretty good about the festivities. We're pretty partial to the Chocolate Bunny Club, even if it makes us a little hungry.

Beyond the Eggcellent Adventure content, the biggest changes here are probably the Managarmr nerf and additional Primitive+ tweaks. The Managarmr has been an especially controversial addition to ARK since it debuted alongside Extinction, but hopefully this is the last balance pass the creature needs to feel properly leveled against its many foes. At the very least, now survivors can't be stopped dead in their tracks from a mile away. On the Prim+ side, the fixes further stabilize a mode that's become somewhat broken after recent patching. ARK update 1.92 isn't a huge overhaul, but Eggcellent Adventure is exactly what fans have been asking for.

ARK: Survival Evolved is available now on PC, Xbox One, PS4 and Switch. The Eggcellent Adventure update is deploying on all platforms except Switch.
