Frontier Developments has announced Jurassic World Evolution 3, due out during its 2026 financial year. That means it will be out at some point between June 1, 2025 and May 31, 2026. Frontier said it had signed a license with Universal Products & Experiences for a third Jurassic World game, which follows 2018’s Jurassic World Evolution and 2021’s Jurassic World Evolution 2. In February 2024, Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment announced an all-new Jurassic World event film currently scheduled for release on July 2, 2025, so Jurassic World Evolution 3 will aim to benefit from increased excitement in all things dinosaurs generated by the movie. Jurassic World Evolution and Jurassic World Evolution 2 rank first and second respectively within Frontier's game portfolio in terms of revenue generated in their first two years, the developer said, with Jurassic World Evolution being Frontier's best-selling game to date since its release almost six years ago. IGN’s Jurassic World Evolution 2 review returned a 7/10. We said: “While park management and customization aspects are a bit shallow, Jurassic World Evolution 2 has tons of excellent dinosaurs and exciting ways to interact with them.” Frontier has refocused on creative management simulation (CMS) games after a tough few years in which a number of high-profile games ******* to meet sales expectations. In November, Frontier issued a trading update following poor launch sales of its real-time strategy game Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin. The studio has also suffered a round of layoffs. Earlier in April, Frontier sold the publishing rights to RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 to Atari for $7 million, bringing in much-needed cash. Frontier recently came under ***** from Elite Dangerous players after announcing plans to sell virtual spaceships for real money. Countering the ***** and gloom, Frontier recently said sales of its games since January have been “in-line with expectations”, with Jurassic World Evolution 2 and Planet Zoo leading the charge. The recent console release of Planet Zoo saw “strong player engagement”, with total sales up to and including the day of release greater than the sales achieved by Planet Coaster when that game came out on consoles in November 2020. Over the next three consecutive financial years, Frontier plans to release one new CMS game per year. There’s an unannounced own-IP CMS game for FY25, which Frontier said is “on track”, the third Jurassic World game confirmed today scheduled for FY26; and a third unannounced CMS game planned for FY27.

Trends are cyclical and corporations are sort of just these massive, sleepy hamsters, trundling around the wheel to rediscover practices and projects they once deemed bad for business.
