The developers of Jurassic World Evolution 2 released a new update that featured new Challenge Levels, Dinosaur Behaviors, and numerous UI and quality-of-life changes.
New Challenge Levels
The latest update includes five DFW Campaign maps as Challenge Levels, which players can access after earning three, five, seven, nine, and two stars respectively across all maps in the Challenge Mode. These include Arizona Breakout, Washington State Wreckage, Pennsylvania Headquarters, Oregon Aviary, and California Photography. Players also have to deal with new Challenge Conditions varying across levels. They must meet certain needs before hiring expert staff members.
New Tiny Dinosaur Behaviors
Update 5 features new behaviors for tiny dinosaurs including group attacks for Moros Intrepidus and Compsognathus on guests and goats. Due to changes in navigation logic, Lystrosaurus, Oviraptor, Moros Intrepidus, and Compsognathus will navigate around water and no longer collide with guests or vehicles.
Jurassic World Evolution 2 Update 5
- Now, when transporting a dinosaur, you'll be able to see the outlines of territories and dinosaurs of that species, as well as an icon above which dinosaurs are liked, disliked, or neutral to that species whilst in transit.
- Once you've placed dinosaurs in their enclosures, selecting the Alpha of that species will also highlight the rest of said species for you, so you can see how many of one species you have within that enclosure.
- Of course, we've also got some quality-of-life updates coming your way in Update 5! These include Tour vehicles honking at dinosaurs blocking their way, as well as ensuring sleeping dinosaurs are reactive when being honked at, and territory decaying more slowly near desirable feeders that are inside the territory.
- Alongside this, the Kentrosaurus 2015 and Ouranosaurus 2015 Variants (both from the Camp Cretaceous Dinosaur Pack), as well as the 2022 Variants of Dreadnoughtus and Giganotosaurus from the Dominion Biosyn Expansion will each be getting 12 new body colors and 7 new pattern color options. Y
- You'll now be able to view a Body Variant selector in the genome editor and Species Viewer for these species.
- There will be more quality-of-life changes, as well as bug fixes, in the full patch notes coming out on 8 December.
