Exciting News for Planet Zoo Fans!
With less than a month left until Planet Zoo celebrates its fifth anniversary, developer Frontier has some exciting updates in store for players. They will be releasing a new paid DLC called the Zookeepers Animal Pack on October 15th, which will introduce seven new creatures to the game. Get ready to welcome the Pallas cat, Hamadryas baboon, Markhor, Spectacled bear, African spurred tortoise, Coquerel’s sifaka, and Kirk’s dik-dik to your zoos!
Along with the new animals, players can look forward to 95 new celebration-themed scenery pieces, including bunting, marquee tents, lanterns, and picnic benches. Additionally, a brand-new scenario will challenge players to organize a five-year birthday party for the Frontier Zoo.
In addition to the DLC, a free update (version 1.18) will also be released on October 15th, featuring an African Leopard as a new addition to the game. This update will also include some free hats (not for the leopard) and the jelly cake enrichment tool.
While Frontier has not revealed any future plans for Planet Zoo post-anniversary, fans can look forward to the upcoming release of Planet Coaster 2 on November 6th for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5.
