Summary
Jurassic World Evolution 3is coming out on July 12, 2025, giving gamers and longtimeJurassic Sagafans the chance to build their own parks and breed their own dinosaurs. While the games have been cherished, there are certain aspects that fans hope to see in the third entry, including some that have been asked for since the first game.
With the official reveal, Frontier Developments has already confirmed that baby dinosaurs will be inJurassic World Evolution 3, allowing the dinosaurs to breed on their own in the park rather than relying on hatcheries. Players had hoped for this since the start, so there is a chance that otherlong-requested additions and changes will be inJurassic World Evolution 3.
9Less Restrictive Maps
There Are Too Many Invisible Walls In Past Games
In both the first and secondJurassic World Evolutiongames, a common complaint is that the maps appear expansive with tons of intricate detail, but much of that detail is locked behind invisible walls. Even the most open maps are surprisingly restrictive, which can make things more challenging for the player in certain scenarios, but some maps leave gamers feeling more frustrated than challenged.
Since players will be receiving new maps set in Japan and other biomes, Frontier Developments should take advantage of these exotic locations with even larger maps than before, similar to howFrontier improvedPlanet Coaster 2. This should also allow players to have more control over terrain customization, which was also limited in previous games.
8River Attractions
The River Raft Sequence Could Be The Perfect Ride
With creatures like the Mosasaurus,Jurassic World Evolution 2allowed park guests to enjoy marine reptiles on the stands, just like in the movies. However, this was the only kind of aquatic attraction when there was potential for more,such as riding down a river. It was shown in theJurassic Worldmovie that guests could kayak and enjoy up-close encounters with the more docile dinosaurs.
There could even be a more thrilling version of a river attraction, especially withJurassic World: Rebirthadapting the river raft sequence from the book into live-action.Jurassic World Evolution 3could integrate something similar to not only capitalize on the film, but provide something different from gyrospheres and tour rides through carnivore paddocks.
7Humans Can Be Threats To The Park
Dinosaurs Are Not The Only Dangers In The Movies
Sabotage has always played a part in theJurassic World Evolutiongames, but the player never sees it occurring. It’s always told through text, but as technology advances, Frontier Developments could make these instances more interactive, with threats visibly causing chaos in the parks, much like the dinosaurs do.
It can be poachers trying to hunt or capture dinosaurs from their paddocks, or eco-terrorists trying to destroy the park. It can force players to pay more attention during quiet times, as someone could sneak in at any moment. If security can be dispatched to deal with rogue dinosaurs, there is no reason why the same couldn’t be done to human threats.
6Direct Control Of Characters
Frontier Has The Opportunity To Blend More Genres
There is no denying that people enjoyJurassic World Evolutionprimarily for its park-building aspects. However, that doesn’t mean Frontier Developments can’t explore new genres. Currently, when something goes wrong with the dinosaurs, players send out a ranger, medic, or helicopter to address the issue. InJurassic World Evolution 3, the gameplay could become more action-packed.
Instead of just observing a ranger or medic performing their tasks, players could have the option to switchto a third-person perspectiveas a park employee to handle the situation manually. This feature would create a sense of wonder when caring for a gentle giant like the Brachiosaurus, or instill a sense of horror when sneaking into a Velociraptor pen to repair a feeder.
5The Cenozoic Era Can Diversify The Roster
Why Stop At Breeding Just Dinosaurs?
EachJurassic World Evolutiongame has added new dinosaurs to the roster, resulting in everyone’s park being different from each other, from obscure carnivores to marine reptiles. However, the next game could go even further by including creaturesfrom other prehistoric eras, such as the Cenozoic, which has radically different prehistoric animals.
It wouldn’t be the first time theJurassic Sagahas featured Cenozoic animals.Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceousadded the Smilodon to the canon, but theJurassic Worldmobile games have featured Mastodon, Titanoboa, Thylacoleo, and many more. They could go even further by also including more creatures from the Paleozoic age.
4More Dinosaur Behaviors
Animals Can Have More Personality Traits Than Ever
The dinosaurs and their animations are always strong in theJurassic World Evolutiongames; even just the visual of them walking through their paddock is satisfying to watch. However, they can also be very limited when it comes to their behaviors, mostly sticking to the same few actions repeatedly when content.
Jurassic World Evolution 3introduces infant dinosaurs, enabling potential family and pack interactions tomake players' parks feel more like a zoo. Parent dinosaurs may defend their young, similar to the Tyrannosaur parents inThe Lost World. With dinosaurs being more visible, the game could feature realistic relationships between carnivores and herbivores, allowing for harmony instead of constant hunting.
3Improved Dinosaur Customization
While it is fine to adhere to how dinosaurs look in the movies, the customization options in theJurassic World Evolutiongames often seem like the bare minimum, with only slight changes to colors and patterns. SinceJurassic World Evolutionis non-canonical, Frontier Developments has the opportunity to go wild with cosmetics for the animals.
Perhaps if a player wants to see more vibrant colors on dinosaurs in the wild, such as neon greens or purples, or if they want crests on a Velociraptor or a T-Rex, those could be viable options. Even in terms of design, Frontier Developments could allow alternate skins for dinosaurs that look drastically different from what’s seen in the movies, even featuring comical skins like a cybernetic raptor or aT-Rex seen in other filmsand video games.
2Managerial Missions
Giving The Player More To Do While Running Parks
Management of the park often feels sterile and safe inJurassic World Evolutiongames, with most problems being resolved with a few clicks or simply by spending in-game money. It often makes the games feel more like a big-budget mobile game, when there could be more for the playerto do as the theme park managerof a genetic wonderland.
Rather than just viewing everything from above, gameplay could be expanded to allow the player character to walk around the park, interacting with guests to learn what they want or need, and speaking with staff. Maybe certain threats to the park require the on-foot presence of the manager, either taking care of the situation directly or saving guests who get stuck in the park.
1Deeper Story-Driven Campaigns
The Games Have The Prime Opportunity To Create Unique Stories
Since theJurassic World Evolutiongames take place in their own alternate timeline, they have demonstrated the potential for unique stories in the previous installments. However, longtime players have expressed that the narratives ultimately boil down to challenges with familiar characters’ voices guiding them. In a sense, the campaigns are little more than elevated training modes.
With a proper campaign, the manager’s story could lead toJurassic Sagacontent that reflects the player’s dreams, following the same convoluted narratives of man playing god while still featuring the park builder gameplay. This could also allow for extended cutscenes with both original characters and famous ones, especially as new characters join the franchise inJurassic World: Rebirth.
