How to get notified when the update goes live

Open the Dino Hunters experience page on Roblox. Fishgig Game lists the Raptor Update as a scheduled event there.
Find the Raptor Update event and press the notify button. This registers you for a reminder tied to the launch time.
Wait for the alert. When the update publishes, a notification lands in your Roblox inbox, confirming you can jump straight into the new content.

What the Raptor Update adds

The headline feature is the Raptor Nest. Once you locate a nest, you survive waves and fight off Raptors to capture them. These dinosaurs move in packs and are built to be highly agile, so expect fast, group-based encounters rather than single targets.

The update also marks the start of Season 1. Seasonal content points toward a battle pass system, which would hand out rewards such as Coins and Capsules as you progress. Beyond Raptors, the roster of catchable dinosaurs is set to grow, giving you more options to build out a battle team.

Note: To make the new hunts easier, come prepared with stronger ranged weapons and dino companions that carry solid health and attack stats. You capture a dinosaur only after reducing its health to zero, then equip it to fight alongside you or ride it as a mount.


With the launch set for July 24 at 1:00 PM UTC, the smartest move now is to register for the event notification and stock up on Coins and Capsules so you can start hunting Raptors and climbing Season 1 the moment servers update.
