Frontier Developments has released Planet Zoo 2 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series. Rather than a radical overhaul, this sequel refines the original 2019 formula, focusing on improved ergonomics, enhanced visuals, and a deeper commitment to environmental preservation. The game successfully maintains its status as a premier animal management simulation.
Gameplay mechanics remain familiar but more demanding. Economic management is stricter, requiring careful attention to ticket pricing and maintenance costs. Animal welfare is now more challenging to maintain, incorporating complex factors like climate, stress, and water filtration. Notably, the developer simplified staff management by removing security agents and research requirements, allowing players to focus on animal care and education.
Reviewers praise the new natural reserves, which allow players to track animals from birth to reintroduction in the wild. While the visual fidelity and the addition of aquariums and volières are highlighted as major strengths, the game faces criticism for its limited selection of bird species at launch. Additionally, the Franchise mode requires a mandatory online connection, and water management tools remain somewhat restrictive.
With over 700 construction objects and an integrated workshop, the game offers extensive creative freedom. Players can now explore their zoos in first-person via avatar, adding to the immersion. Despite minor technical limitations regarding terrain and a reliance on future DLC for more avian content, the title is considered a significant success.
