Jurassic World Evolution 2: Feathered Species Pack available today

The park of your dreams will be even bigger and more varied with the Jurassic World Evolution 2: Feathered Species Pack. With a total of four incredible feathered species, bring a whole new dimension to your park by showcasing these stunning dinosaurs and reptiles, from nimble flying species to terrestrial carnivores. Let’s dive deeper into the feathered species pack.

We’re paying tribute to a mix of species that are absolute favorites of both the community and everyone here at Frontier Developments. The Yutyrannus and Deinocheirus were at the top of every wish list our awesome community team put together for us to review, while the smaller Jeholpterus and Sinosauropteryx were really well received by our concept, character, and animation teams.

In the blockbuster Jurassic World Dominion, we finally got to see feathered species come to life in dramatic fashion. I wanted our next dinosaur-focused pack to defend such species. Science is constantly advancing our knowledge of extinct life forms, and over the last few decades we’ve learned a tremendous amount about what they might have looked like. This means we make sure that every species in the Jurassic World Evolution franchise is as authentic as possible, and it’s great to be able to use that knowledge to bring players four more exciting and beautiful species in this pack.

The pack is a great mix of sizes and types, from a large ornithomimosaurid and a medium-sized theropod to some of our smallest species to date with the Sinosauropteryx and Jehelopterus. Whatever your preferences, the sheer variety of species in this pack means there’s something for everyone.

Yutyrannus, The “Feathered Tyrant”

Meet the Yutyrannus, one of the largest known feathered meat-eating dinosaurs. The Yutyrannus is covered in a light but dense fur that provides insulation when temperatures drop and keeps them warm in colder conditions. I’m particularly obsessed with how this looks in-game – try to get a close-up with the in-game camera! The name Yutyrannus translates to “feathered tyrant” and he really deserves the name as he is the most fearsome admission in this pack.

Jeholopterus, Rare and Airborne

Next up is my personal favorite, the Jeholopterus. Paleontologists have only found one specimen of this incredibly rare reptile, but as luck would have it, it was incredibly well preserved, giving us a fascinating insight into its appearance and behavior. The smallest flying species in the entire game, the Jeholopterus is an impressively fast and agile pterodactyl that can soar through the air with beguiling ease and agility. I love the look of it, kind of a cross between a bat, a bird and a flying squirrel.

Deinocheirus, omnivore with the hump

Then there’s the Deinocheirus, a coveted community favorite. One look at this distinctive plant collector and you can see why. With its duck-like beak and wide hump on its back, this is one of the largest ornithomimosaurs ever discovered, with arms longer than those of a two-legged dinosaur. This is also our first omnivore to eat from both paleobotany trees and fish feeders, giving you multiple ways to ensure its nutritional needs are met.

Sinosauropteryx, pocket-sized but powerful

To the Sinosauropteryx, a species at the opposite end of the spectrum to Deinocheirus and the smallest in our pack. It’s a tiny, carnivorous dinosaur covered in delicate, hair-like feathers and wagging a striped tail. Hunting together in groups means the Sinosauropteryx is able to overcome any size disadvantages, making it a formidable species despite its size. It is also a milestone in the field of feathered dinosaur research. Its fossilized remains were the first to suggest the existence of feathered dinosaurs, suggesting their potential for coloration.

By continually researching and comparing how modern birds of the same size look and move with their feathers, we are able to refine our artistic processes and pipelines to ensure our species look as realistic as possible. I’m very proud of how we managed to capture these four amazing prehistoric species and can’t wait for you to get your hands on them.

Bringing such unique species to life and adding to the amazing amount of dinosaurs and reptiles currently in the game has been really exciting. Use them to develop your park even more when the Jurassic World Evolution 2: Feathered Species Pack Coming to Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One on March 30th.
