Contents 1 Gameplay 1.1 Gameplay modes 2 Development and release 3 Reception 4 References 5 External links Gameplay Jurassic World Evolution is a business simulation game that allows the player to construct a Jurassic World dinosaur theme park with attractions and research facilities. Essential buildings and facilities featured in the game include the Expedition Center, which sends paleontologists to fossil dig sites so as to obtain dinosaurs DNA content. DNA sequencing unlocks new dinosaurs and updates their statistics, such as lifespan and resilience. With sufficient DNA content, players can use the Hammond Research Center to breed and incubate the dinosaurs. Players can also improve the gene of the dinosaurs and evolve them by integrating the DNA of modern species into these dinosaurs gene to fill their gaps. These modifications to dinosaurs ' DNA will change the dinosaurs base statistics, from their level of aggressiveness to their appearance. The game features a terrain tool which allows players to modify the environment, such as planting trees and creating water sources. Dinosaurs are the game 's main attractions. The game features approximately 40 dinosaur species at launch. Players need to build enclosures to contain dinosaurs for visitors ' viewing. The needs of different dinosaurs, such as the type of food they eat and the extent of the social interactions they require, must be met to keep them healthy and satisfied. Dinosaurs, controlled by artificial intelligence, will interact with each other and with the environment. For instance, carnivores will attack other carnivores of a different species, and carnivores will hunt down herbivores. Players also need to construct various entertainment rides, as well as amenities such as restaurants and shops to please the guests. An example of tourist attraction is the Gyrosphere and the monorail from Jurassic World. Players can also use the game 's photo mode to take pictures of dinosaurs, which also help the park to earn money and publicity. As the construction and expansion of the park, and the incubation of dinosaurs require a large sum of money, entertainment branch is the main source of the park 's income. Each entertainment facilities and amenities come with their own management system, with players being able to set and adjust entry fees as well as the amount of staff present in each facility. Dinosaurs can also be sold to earn additional income. There are various emergency situations that may happen in the park, including power failures, unpredictable weather, and dinosaur breakouts, which must be addressed by players in order to ensure guests ' safety and happiness. Players can build an ACU Center and a Ranger Station, which are responsible for maintaining the park 's security, sedating escaped dinosaurs, medicating sick dinosaurs, transporting dinosaurs, fixing fences, and more. Players can also control vehicles such as helicopters and 4x4 trucks to complete certain tasks. Emergency shelters to protect the guests, as well as other security structures like power network redundancies and storm warning centers, can be built. Many of these security facilities can be upgraded to strengthen their efficiency when dealing with emergencies. Gameplay modes In the career mode, the player 's ultimate goal is to develop five - star parks across the fictional islands of the Las Cinco Muertes Archipelago. Dr. Ian Malcolm assists the player through the game, and players will meet other key figures representing three branches of the park 's development : Entertainment, Security, and Science. Each of these characters will push their agenda at the players, trying to convince players to develop the park in accordance to their advice. They give players `` contracts '' to complete, which are a series of goals and objectives. These contracts add narrative to the game, as well as rewards and reputation in their respective domains. Players are recommended to keep a close eye on their reputation with each division. If the player 's reputation with a division gets too low, that division will create a sabotage in the player 's park that they 'll need to attend to immediately. For instance, they could shut down the park 's power, allowing dinosaurs to break out. These divisions all feed into the parks ' ratings. The five islands, each with different characteristics and challenges, will gradually unlock with sufficient park ratings. Isla Nublar -- the island featured in Jurassic Park, Jurassic World, and Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom -- is the setting for a sandbox mode that is separate from the game 's career mode. The sandbox mode is unlocked once a 4 - star park rating is achieved on Isla Matanceros, the starting island. Once this is accomplished, everything the player has unlocked in career mode, such as building upgrades and dinosaurs, will transfer over to the sandbox, and anything locked in career will remain locked in the sandbox. In the sandbox mode, players have unlimited funds, and they can also set the weather and time of day of their parks. Development and release Jurassic World Evolution stand at E3 2018 Jurassic World Evolution was developed and published by Frontier Developments, and is based on the 2015 film Jurassic World. NBCUniversal had wanted a game to accompany the theatrical release of its 2018 film Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom, and the company approached Frontier Developments about creating such a game, approximately two years before its eventual release. Frontier Developments had also been interested in creating a dinosaur game. Jurassic World Evolution was created with a development team of approximately 100 people, on a budget of around £ 8 million. Michael Brookes was the game 's director, while Andrew Fletcher was the lead designer. The game was developed using Frontier Developments ' Cobra game engine. Universal Pictures provided the developers with dinosaur models from the films for a high level of detail. Universal also provided reference materials, including audio. To aid in creating the game, the development team closely watched the films and read Michael Crichton 's novels, Jurassic Park and The Lost World, and also read various fan theories. In addition, Universal and the team had discussions about various elements regarding the game. History from each of the films was also added into the game. For the game, Jeff Goldblum reprised his role as Ian Malcolm from the first two Jurassic Park films. Bryce Dallas Howard and B.D. Wong also reprised their roles from Jurassic World. Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the first dinosaurs that the development team began working on. For the T. rex roars, the game 's sound team obtained audio samples from the films and then altered them for originality. The animation team then altered their T. rex roaring animations to fit the sound effects. For the dinosaurs ' designs, the development team primarily referred to the films while incorporating some of the latest scientific discoveries, seeking to mainly base the designs on the films ' dinosaurs for consistency. Birds and other animals were also studied by the team to aid in designing the dinosaurs. In addition to designs, dinosaur behavior was also based on a mix of the films and scientific findings. Paleontologist Jack Horner, who served as an advisor on the films, was also consulted for advice on the game 's dinosaurs, which were given bright and colorful designs based on new dinosaur research. On August 20, 2017, the game was announced during Gamescom 2017. Later, on October 7, footage showcasing the in - game engine was revealed during the first annual Frontier Expo. As of March 2018, Brookes had been working on the game for just over a year. The game was digitally released for Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on June 12, 2018, coinciding with the theatrical release of Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom. A free game update based on Jurassic World : Fallen Kingdom, with six dinosaurs from the film, was released on June 22, 2018. Physical copies of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One version were released on July 3, 2018. In August 2018, Frontier Developments announced an upcoming patch that would alter the sizes of several dinosaurs to match their real - life and film counterparts.
