Top Hat Skin — Detailed Guide

A fancy look for any headgear

The Top Hat is a cosmetic skin in ARK: Survival Ascended; in ARK: Survival Evolved the same item is called Top Hat Skin. Its in-game text: "You can use this to skin the appearance of a helmet or hat. Provides a fancy look." The ARK Wiki says it can be applied to any piece of headgear, which then looks like a top hat.

A New Year's item

The wiki counts it among the holiday items of the New Year's event. It also says the skin is unlocked by completing the Survivor Evolved Achievement. From then on, the skin is in the inventory every time the survivor respawns.

Weight, stacking and maps

It weighs 0, so carrying it adds no load, and each one takes its own slot because it does not stack. Our records list it on 3 maps: The Island, Scorched Earth and The Center. It belongs to the base game rather than a DLC, and the wiki dates it to patch 228.0.
