Trivia[]

  • Jurassic World Evolution 2 has many gameplay changes, compared to the first game: new buildings; maps, that are larger and grander in scale; dinosaurs with greater levels of customization as well as more realistic behavior, and much more. A new game mode was introduced called Chaos Theory, in which players are challenged with various "what-if" scenarios from all six movies of the Jurassic franchise.
  • Jurassic World Evolution 2 introduces new animal groups: Pterosaurs, and Marine Reptiles, which have their own unique housing like Aviary Domes for Pterosaurs, and Lagoons for Marine Reptiles, as well as multiple new species of Dinosaurs.
    • It is, however, not the first time the Jurassic World Evolution series features other hatchable animals from the past. The first game, Jurassic World Evolution, features the Pteranodon, which was first introduced as species in the Return to Jurassic Park DLC.
  • Nearly all of the dinosaurs are returning in Jurassic World Evolution 2 (though, Huayangosaurus is the only dinosaur that is not included the base game and is a part of the Deluxe Upgrade Pack DLC) despite most species returning, Spinoraptor, Stegoceratops, and Ankylodocus are absent from the second game prior to the Secret Species Pack.
  • When a dinosaur eats a person it has chance to have the injury "swallowed phone" which plays the satellite phone ringtone form Jurassic Park III.
  • While Sino-Spino, Smilodon, Nothosaurus, and Tarbosaurus appeared in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, they are absent from the Camp Cretaceous Dinosaur Pack. The latter two having been first featured in the Final Season of the series, and the Netflix Interactive Special, were both released after the dinosaur pack.
    • Despite being absent from the Camp Cretaceous Dinosaur Pack, Nothosaurus appears in the Prehistoric Marine Species Pack. Tarbosaurus appears in the Cretaceous Predator Pack. Spinoceratops appears in the Secret Species Pack.
  • While Microceratus appeared in Jurassic World: Dominion, it is absent from both the Dominion Biosyn Expansion and the Dominion Malta Expansion. It is the final example of the missing species of the Dominion Biosyn Expansion.
  • The game has been confirmed to not be film canon by Chaos Theorem team members Chris Pugh and Jack Ewins.[14][15]
