Hatzegopteryx is a colossal pterosaur that towers over much of the playable roster. It has a big head and a thick, powerful beak that can deliver deadly pecks. Its broad wingspan lets it glide for very long distances and scan for prey from above. When it spots a small creature, it can swoop down, snatch it up, and drop it to its death from high in the sky.

Hatzegopteryx ("Hațeg basin wing") is a genus of azhdarchid pterosaur found in the late Maastrichtian deposits of the Densuș-Ciula Formation in Transylvania, Romania. It is known only from the type species, Hatzegopteryx thambema, named by Buffetaut et al. in 2002 from parts of the skull and humerus. Additional specimens, including a neck vertebra, were later placed in the genus, spanning a range of sizes. The largest remains indicate it was among the biggest pterosaurs: the average adult was about 4 metres tall, with a 10-metre wingspan and 350 kg. Hatzegopteryx belongs to the family Azhdarchidae, within the group Azhdarchoidea.
🦴 Full scientific profileYes — Clamp lets it bite and carry small creatures, slowly draining stamina while holding them. It can then drop them from height to kill on impact. On La Meute QC, this mechanic is particularly effective against small raptors and herbivores during nest battles.
Yes — Hatzegopteryx is a large flying carnivore (4/5 damage, 3/5 defense) while Rhamphorhynchus is small and light. Hatzegopteryx has a full aerial arsenal: Peck Barrage, Wing Beat (heavy knockback), Barrel Roll, and Aerial Mastery (-25% cooldowns while flying). Its real 10m wingspan makes it one of the largest pterosaurs in the game.
Yes via two key abilities: Glider passive (reduces stamina cost with wings fully spread) and Preened Feathers (-35% stamina while flying). Rest Stop regenerates 100% stamina over 15s on the ground. On Riparia, Hatzegopteryx can cover very long distances gliding to survey the map, find corpses (Corpse Stealer: detects at 250m), and plan attacks.
