Ahead of next summer’s highly-anticipated new chapter in one of the biggest franchises in the history of cinema, Jurassic World: Dominion, from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment, players can immerse themselves in a thrilling Jurassic World experience as they find themselves outside the confines of the Muertes Islands for the very first time.

With a captivating narrative, Campaign mode puts players at the heart of the action following the earth-shattering events of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom as they join returning characters such as Claire Dearing (voiced by Bryce Dallas Howard) and Dr. Ian Malcolm (voiced by Jeff Goldblum). In this cinematic, original story, budding prehistoric park managers will learn the skills needed to be park- management masters. They’ll join forces with Cabot Finch to help lead the efforts of the DFW (Department of Fish and Wildlife) across the continental U.S., working to establish new facilities across a range of locations in order to control, contain and conserve wild dinosaurs.
Players can change the course of events and experience the Jurassic World universe like never before, in the all-new Chaos Theory mode.

Whether realizing John Hammond’s dream of an operational Jurassic Park, showcasing a T. rex in the San Diego Amphitheatre or building and running their own Jurassic World with the support of iconic characters such as Dr. Henry Wu (voiced by BD Wong), franchise fans can rediscover and alter the events from their favorite films whilst managing a brand new array of challenges with unpredictable outcomes.
Dinosaur park perfectionists will find everything they need to unleash their creativity in Sandbox mode.

For those looking to test their park management skills, Challenge mode offers the perfect outlet with a range of missions of varying difficulty to test even the most seasoned of park managers.
With deeper management, such as the all-new guest demographics, players will need to balance guest interests and needs to maximize profits and boost park appeal. Meanwhile, a roster of key staff, including Scientists and Veterinary teams, ensure parks and their inhabitants are kept in tip-top shape. With more than 75 breathtaking prehistoric species to discover, including highly requested flying and marine reptiles and returning community-favorite dinosaurs, Jurassic World Evolution 2 offers fans everything they need to create authentic and compelling Jurassic World experiences.
