What to know
- All dinosaurs spawn in one hidden underground “dino biome” below the volcano biome on the map.
- This biome is accessed by going underground where the volcanic biome appears on the surface.
- The spawn area is roughly between Y-level 30 and 40 in the underground.
- You’ll find T‑Rex, Raptors, Triceratops, Pteranodon, and Archaeopteryx all in this same zone.
Dinosaur location in Hytale: Where to find them
In Hytale, dinosaurs are found in a unique underground biome beneath the Volcano biome. To locate them, find a volcanic area on the surface and dig down into the caves. The dinosaur biome typically spawns around Y‑level 30–40, so exploring caves at this depth in the volcanic zone is the best way to encounter them.,


How to reach the Dinosaur biome
Follow the steps below to reach the Dinosaur Biome in Hytale:
Step 1: Find the volcano biome on the surface
Look for the volcanic biome in the overworld; this is the surface area that marks where the dino caves lie below.

Step 2: Dig down into the underground
Once in the volcanic biome, mine or explore downward into the cave system beneath it.
Step 3: Go to Y‑level 30–40
Use your coordinates to stay around Y 30–40 in the underground. That’s the height range where the dino biome appears.
Step 4: Look for the Dinosaur biome
In that zone, you’ll enter a distinct cave area filled with dinosaurs. Flying dinos (Pteranodon and Archaeopteryx) will be circling around, while T‑Rex, raptors, and triceratops walk on the ground.

What you’ll see in the Dinosaur biome
When you enter the biome, you’ll immediately encounter:
- Raptors – They spawn in small groups (2–3 at a time) and attack together, making them more dangerous than their individual health suggests.
- T‑Rex – A large, tanky dinosaur with high HP (around 200–300), found in the same cave area as raptors.
- Triceratops – A slower, less aggressive ground dino with slightly less HP than the T‑Rex.
- Pteranodon – A flying dinosaur that drops feathers and white meat when killed.
- Archaeopteryx – A small flying dino that also drops feathers and meat.

All of these dinosaurs are packed into that one underground volcanic cave zone, so once you find the biome, you can encounter every dino type in a relatively small area.

Finding Dinosaurs in Hytale
To encounter dinosaurs in Hytale, explore caves beneath a Volcano biome around Y‑level 30–40. This underground dino biome houses T-Rex, Raptors, Triceratops, Pteranodon, and Archaeopteryx together, letting you hunt, tame, and collect drops without traveling across multiple biomes.
