Trailer Impressions: Jurassic World Evolution Announcement

The city building games always intrigue me, but most of them are too similar to separate themselves from the pack. Jurassic World Evolution looks from the trailer to be a fun take on theme park building that has me very very interested. The developer is Frontier Developments, who developed the highly acclaimed theme park building game called Planet Coaster. I didn’t play it then because my PC was beneath the requirements, but that was a game that snuck up on everyone in the PC gaming world at the end of 2016 to become a sleeper hit.

I remain cautiously optimistic about the success of Jurassic World Evolution, only because this is a movie tie in game. Movie tie in games are known for being rushed and published unfinished, but at the same time I can’t ignore the success of Frontier Developments with Planet Coaster, so that keeps me optimistic. I’ve always felt the theme park building would be interesting in a Jurassic World Evolution and it looks like that’s finally happening.
