When Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Season 3 roared onto Netflix in May of 2021, it was met with a wildly popular reception from fans. Not only did the series reintroduce a much-loved character from Jurassic World and Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, but it also saw the inclusion of several new animals and variants of animals – including the brand-new Hybrid, Scorpios Rex, amongst others.
This animal, alongside a plethora of other new elements, make up the brand-new DLC Pack for Jurassic World Evolution 2 – set to release on March 8th.
Not only does this introduce the Scorpios Rex, but it also brings in the brand-new Monolophosaurus – an animal which hasn’t previously been in the videogame. There are also unique variants of both the Ouranosaurus and Kentrosaurus included to reflect their counterparts on-screen in the show. The DLC also includes 8-brand new skins, including a skin for Bumpy the Ankylosaurus, skins for the trio of Baryonyx seen in the show, and also a gorgeous new bioluminescent skin for the Parasaurolophus. This skin is something I mentioned in my idea video for a CC DLC, so I love seeing its inclusion here.
It’s worth noting that, much like the previous PDLC release, the addition of this content to the game does also bring with it a great free update to add more depth to the game for all players. One of these updates includes the a ‘Species Viewer’ – allowing us to observe each species in greater detail. This is described as a long-awaited feature, so do let us know if you have an idea as to what the viewer may include in the comments below as we’d love to get more insight into it ahead of the release of the DLC. Alongside this inclusion we also get a brand-new First-Person View which allows us to get up close and personal with our parks at guest height. This is something which has been requested since the first game, so we are excited to see this included in the latest update.
Alongside this, we have also been promised new ways to decorate our parks – with more decoration items (including individually placeable trees) coming to our parks as a part of this update. When I reviewed Evolution 2, I said that how the game grows and expands from here will define how successful this as a sequel, so it is great to see Frontier continuing to invest the time and energy into large-scale free additions alongside the paid pieces of content. I hope that this momentum continues as we approach the release of Jurassic World Dominion, and I hope that any of the content released for the film is again divided between both paid and free brackets so that there is something for everyone.
Overall, I am very excited about the Camp Cretaceous DLC. It brings some fun new additions to our parks, and also adds some fun additional elements which will add to the breadth and depth of sandbox options available in the game. We think this DLC is likely to be a big hit with fans – and we’re excited to see what else is in store for us in the future.
Thanks to Frontier Developments for advance notice of this DLC. The Camp Cretaceous Pack launches on March 8th 2022.
