‎Jurassic World Evolution 2 turns our classic dinosaur park into a huge dinosaur shelter. But a wilder, more detailed, demanding and, ultimately, more spectacular. Those who are fond of the license, will find a game that pampers every aspect related to dinosaurs and their enjoyment. Those who are fans of the genre, will find a more complete game and a more demanding point than its first installment, which if anything sinned was to be too soft for the most experts.‎

‎Jurassic World Evolution 2 is bigger and better in every way, even if it looks more like a definitive edition than a sequel. Their campaign doesn't take advantage of the premise of containing wild dinosaurs, and you'll spend most of your time in Nublar and Sorna. But perfect the gameplay with a huge amount of content and that's more than enough.‎

Despite being frustrated by the initial limitations of the Sandbox Mode and the lackluster campaign, I found a lot to enjoy and appreciate about Jurassic World Evolution 2. Chaos Theory is an engaging and creative way of blending the iconic films into the game, and the new aquatic and flying dinosaurs are among the best of many new animals. Building and managing a theme park full of impossibly ancient animals is challenging and rewarding, and despite some annoyances, the game also manages to retain many grin-worthy moments of wonder at the improbable. People and dinosaurs just aren’t meant to be in the same place at the same time.

A bigger and better sequel which works as both a compelling management sim and a celebration of the Jurassic Park franchise.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 is chaotic, delightful proof that managing dinosaurs is no walk in the Jurassic park.

This is a game that is worth struggling with to unlock new dinosaurs for the freeing sandbox mode

‎Jurassic World Evolution 2 is not a bad game, not at all, in fact, it will delight those who come from the first installment and those who discover it for the first time. The gameplay is a delight and the title is fun although perhaps too continuist and not very innovative.‎

Jurassic World Evolution 2 builds on its predecessor's framework to create a super-satisfying park management sim with the occasional raptor attack.

Though there are moments of bloody mayhem, the focus in this beautiful game is on wondrous natural history.

If we had to make a list of things that are totally radical then dinosaurs chasing and eating annoying fannypack-wearing tourists while we triumphantly hum the Jurassic Park theme tune would be top ten. Maybe even top five. We're here for that. Minor quibbles with the main campaign aside, Jurassic World Evolution 2 delivers an entertaining if simplistic park builder, that well-utilises the Jurassic World license, and throws in just the right amount of dinosaur-fuelled mayhem to boot.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 certainly has a fitting title, because it's exactly that — a true evolution. The campaign might be a little on the short side, performance problems are unfortunate, and only having a handful of the movie actors reprise their roles can feel a little jarring (the Chris Pratt soundalike is kinda terrible). But rustling beyond the foliage of these superficial issues is a simulation game with the kind of depth and nuance that the original game promised but never really delivered.

This new game by Frontier Developments is a great gift to all the fans of Jurassic Park. The core of Jurassic World Evolution 2 remains the same, but now with expanded depth.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 does not reinvent the formula but greatly improves it by inflating its content and management options.

The second incarnation of the Jurassic World Evolution series is undoubtedly a clear step forward compared to its predecessor. The end result is a revised and corrected version of a formula that overall continues to work quite well and that we think can satisfy fans of the saga. The game is elaborate but not particularly challenging, and could certainly represent a more than satisfying pastime, as long as you overlook some small flaws that afflict its playful structure.

While Jurassic World Evolution marked a rock-solid dry run for Frontier's prehistoric theme park management sim, Jurassic World Evolution 2 is a meaningful, erm, evolution, with the new Chaos Theory mode providing engaging scenarios in which you can attempt to set things right. A diverse suite of modes and slick interfaces ensures Jurassic World Evolution 2's status as an excellent sequel.

While it doesn't go crazy, Jurassic World Evolution 2 has almost perfected dinosaur-theme-park managers. Just ignore the weird voices and occasional bugs.

There's still some way to go to make the JWE franchise a viable management sim, but this sequel goes a long way to right a lot of its predecessor's wrongs.

The Early Cretaceous pack isn't as vital as the free update is, but more dinosaurs is always a good thing when recreating your ideal prehistoric park. While the DLC may be light on new features, the inclusion of both a new flying reptile and a new sea critter enhance the otherwise smaller selection of these beasts, especially when compared to their land-dwelling counterparts. The two ground dinosaurs added with the pack are also fantastic additions in their own right, especially the adorable Minmi. The game has a fantastic community management team with Frontier who actively listen to their fanbase, so no doubt the future of Jurassic World Evolution 2 is solidified, thanks to the encouraging signs that the Early Cretaceous pack offers.
