Dino Hunters Events Schedule: Raptor Update End Time & Countdown
Dino Hunters is in the middle of one of its busiest stretches, with the Raptor Update live now and a bigger Mega Evo Update queued to take over just hours later. The Raptor Update is built around a Raptor Nest Survival mode, and it has pulled in about about 180,000 interested players — by far the largest turnout on the game’s current calendar.
As of July 30, the Raptor Update — now 6 days in — is set to close in the early hours of July 31 ET, and the Mega Evo Update begins later that same morning, about seven hours after Raptor closes. The game is drawing a steady concurrent crowd into the experience while the current event runs.
This page covers Dino Hunters’ live and upcoming in-game events, and we update it as the schedule changes. Exact start and end times for each event are shown in the schedule below.

Current and upcoming events
Raptor Update — Raptor Nest Survival (live)
The Raptor Update is the game’s live headline event, centered on a Raptor Nest Survival mode. It went live on July 24 and runs through midnight ET on July 31 (04:00 UTC). With about about 180,000 players marking interest, it is comfortably the most-anticipated item on the schedule — a clear sign of how much attention a survival-mode drop pulls in this game.
Mega Evo Update — New Area & New Evo (upcoming)
Up next is the Mega Evo Update, which brings a new area and a new evolution. It is scheduled to begin on the morning of July 31 ET, about seven hours after the Raptor Update closes, and run into early September, ending at midnight ET on September 4. Interest is still building, with about about 27,000 players signed up so far; that is well short of the Raptor Update’s turnout, but the event has weeks on the calendar to grow.
The Raptor Update and Mega Evo Update start about a week apart, but Mega Evo is a much longer content window that runs deep into September. That means the next several weeks are anchored by this single update rather than a string of shorter weekly events.
