Planet Zoo 2 Preview: New King of The Jungle Emerges

Frontier Developments’ Planet Zoo 2 launches October 13, building on the successful 2019 original with expanded features. The sequel introduces aquatic and avian species alongside existing terrestrial animals, significantly broadening the variety of wildlife players can manage. A key new feature includes customizable nature reserves where players can release animals and observe their journey back into the wild.

The game continues the management simulation gameplay that made the original popular, with comparisons drawn to the classic Zoo Tycoon series that influenced the genre. Early preview builds have demonstrated positive results, with hands-on experience involving early campaign stages and Sandbox mode suggesting the sequel delivers an engaging and expanded experience that may surpass its predecessor’s success.
