A new DLC has been announced for Jurassic World Evolution 2 which is set to tie into the upcoming Jurassic World: Dominion movie. The new film will bring the six-movie Jurassic Park saga to a close, uniting the casts of the original Jurassic Park movies with Jurassic World, requiring the characters to work together in a world overrun by dinosaurs. To celebrate this, Jurassic World Evolution 2 will introduce new story content, adding fresh adventures for players to embark on.
The Jurassic World Evolution games have been popular amongst fans. The first game, which coincided with the release of 2018's Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, allowed players to build and maintain their own dinosaur parks, and overcome a variety of issues that could lead to dinosaur breakouts. The sequel focuses on the rescue and containment of dinosaurs that broke free and now roam the world, much like the premise of the upcoming 2022 blockbuster.
In a May 27 press release, developers Frontier Developments, Universal Games, and Digital Platforms announced the Jurassic World Evolution 2: Dominion Biosyn expansion releasing on June 14, 2022. The DLC will be Jurassic World Evolution's biggest to date and will introduce a brand new Jurassic World: Dominion-inspired campaign and Chaos Theory content set in the Sierra Nevada environment. It will also feature new terrains such as Pine forests and snowy hilltops for players to explore. Additionally, the DLC will add a cast of much-loved characters and cast members from the movies, such as Jurassic World's Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard), Jurassic Park's Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neill), and Jurassic Park's Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) for players to interact with.
Much like the Dominion movie, the Dominion Biosyn DLC will also bring more scientifically accurate feathered dinosaurs to the game in the form of the Therizinosaurus and Pyroraptor, something that the Jurassic Park franchise has glossed over in the past, despite scientific developments since the original 1993 movie. Although the Dominion Biosyn DLC will cost 19.99 USD, it will also be accompanied by a free update that will introduce a range of new features, including dinosaur-wrangling mechanics that allow players to corral herds of dinosaurs quickly without the need to tranquilize and transport them.
While players will have to wait to see how Jurassic World Evolution 2: Dominion Biosyn ties into the upcoming film, the content will likely be an exciting way to experience new plot points outside of the theater. It may also help resolve the repetitive management gameplay that has plagued the series since the previous Jurassic World Evolution title. Hopefully, Jurassic World Evolutions 2's new DLC will put a thrilling spin on the game's premise.
Jurassic World Evolution 2: Dominion Biosyn Expansion will be available on PC via Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the Windows Store, as well as on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One starting June 14, 2022.
