MEGALODON, MICROCERATUS & MORE! FULL DLC & FREE UPDATE REVEAL | Jurassic World Evolution 2 DLC 

It's *basically* a "fan favorites pack" in disguise lol which is your favorite??

The "people wanted us to add them but we had nowhere to put them" pack

I like how Megalodon has a head more like a bull shark, and a little ‘racing stripe’ on the side like the common blacktip. They used a bunch of different sharks as inspiration for the meg, and I love that!

7:31 Frontier: We'll be expecting that kidney now.

4:03 I also wanna mention that MicroCeratus was one of Micheal Critchons favourite dinosaurs

0:52 look at his face, it’s so cute. Kinda like a pug :)

0:53 this megaldon Design is amazing! It totally fits into the newest scientific assumptions about the look of it, less a great whit shark but more a bulky bullshark. I also love this little dumb black dot eyes starring at you!

Forget the fish, we got long water plants now 🌿

Ok ok I guess the initial angle for the pack would have been to have Hatzegopteryx instead of Thanatosdrakon. When the trailer aired I initially assumed that it *was* Hatzegopteryx. But I can see the thought process behinds the change: -First, they want an kind of realistic looking Azhdarchid to pair with the film Quetz, which isn't as accurate and has like a 20m wingspan. -Hatzegopteryx thambema is famed for being on par with real life Quetzalcoatlus nothropi in terms of size, if a little smaller and a little stockier. -A potential game Hatz would therefore be either A) realistically scaled, with a 10m wingspan, or B) scaled to the film Quetz, with a ~20m wingspan. -Both A and B have problems. Option A gives you a underwhelming bodysize when compared to the Quetz, making "The Terror of Hateg Island" feel kinda puny and 'uncool', but option B gives you essentially a palaeoaccurate Quetz clone, which is also kinda underwhelming for what feels like the last JWE2 DLC. -Given that we want a cool realistic azhdarchid that feels like it contributes meaningfully to the roster, it seems best to give Hatz a wide berth because of these issues. -This leaves us with the rest of Azhdarchidae, of which there are like 20ish. We still want a big one, so that it can stand up against the likes of Tropeognathus and Pteranodon, but not a giant that might run into the same size problem as Hatzegopteryx, ruling out stuff like Arambourgiania at one end and Azhdarcho and Phosphatodraco at the other; ideally we're looking for a wingspan of 8-9m. -Thanatosdrakon and Cryodrakon are the primary candidates here I think, they fit the bill of big but not too big. And I think Thanatosdrakon is the pick to make here, to make the game slightly less americacentric. This is something all dinosaur media should keep in mind ideally, given that many of the famous prehistoric creatures are from North America and other continents, particularly the southern continents, become underrepresented. Thanatosdrakon helps expand JWE2's South American roster, which is in much more need of expansion than it's northern neighbour's.

This is great because with Segisaurus, we now have all 15 species meant for the original Jurassic Park. With Microceratus, we now have 12/15 species from the novel. The only ones left are Hadrosaurus, Othneilia, and Procompsognathus.

The fact we got MICROCERATUS, after waiting so long, is magnificent!

Honestly I think I love the Thanatosdrakon more than any other species in the pack🤣 I know what y’all are going to say😅

Segi and micro was all I needed, kelp was such a huge added bonus for the empty lagoons! ❤️

So happy we’re finally getting something new in our lagoons. Love the look of the meg

5/5 stars I really wanted the Meg every since the release of jwe2. I was baited by the dunk’s tail in its trailer, but I can now rest easy knowing my wait for the Meg is short.

We finally got something amazing I'm hyped rn

Im still waiting for the petting zoo, mosasaur skeleton, the boat tours and those cool bridges that go over enclosures

Yes! Kelp forests, big shark, and another tiny dinosaur! After almost a year of minimal gaming, this will successfully drive me back to Evolution 2. Can’t wait to see what you do with new lagoons!

think. the thanatosdrakon is in the pack because. I think they're saving the Top Hatzegopteryx for a Potential Pterosaurs DLC. I have a feeling frontier might make at least 1 or 2 more DLCs before focusing on this next Jurassic game

This entire pack feels like a wild card, but honestly I'm not complaining. We've been hyping up segi and microceratus for a long while and the meg adds more variety to lagoon exhibits. Thanatosdrakon is unexpected, but hey, it's attack animation has me intrigued so I'm happy 🤷🏾‍♂️🥰

THEY ADDED THE MEG *grabs you by the shirt and violently shakes you* THEY ADDED IT!

Ladies and gentlemen we got Kelp!!! So happy with the Magalodon and Microceratus. I feel like they could have done more for the free update like a last attraction of some kind but even though it won’t happen I’m still excited.

I totally thought for a second the first time I saw the announcement trailer for this dlc that the Thanatosdrakon was jwe2’s interpretation of Hatzegopteryx 💀🤣

I feel like they’re saving Lagoon foliage brushing for JWE3.

Glad everyone, including you, got the Megalodon you've all been wanting. And very greatful it's not the exaggerated fictional one. Not to mention the kelp which will be a nice addition. Meanwhile, the Microceratus is finally coming. Along with two other species.

I like the pack overall but thanatosdrakon is noticeably small. It should be about Quetzacoatlus size, but it’s noticeably smaller than that.

Thanks soo much evo for you spoiling us with your amazing content

Yooo this is so cool! Thanks EVO for keeping me up to date with the games updates!

know what's funny i did ask for Cryodrakon, so not far off! XD But they could have plans for Hatzegopteryx so they don't want to add a potential spoiler or a not-movie inaccurate one to the game (like Giga) so we got another large Azhdarchid instead. I'm interested in this pack either way and I hope we get some really unique animation for our large shark. Also, megalodon is not thought of anymore as being closely related to white sharks instead belonging to Otodontidae sharks. I know this is still a common mistake people make so I thought to inform you a little bit. keep up the great work and love all you're parks and tours

I am so so so excited for this, i know i say this for every dlc, but this one is gonna be so cool, still hoping for the smilodon tho, maybe as a 3rd anniversary gift?

i love this vid Evo! i am soo exited!

Awesome! keep it up Evo!

Also park managers are refering to us the players so I think this is the last dlc

Microceratus is finally here. It's been 2 years that we wanted this

Fantastic video to start a Monday off with as usual 😊I think it is kind of like a salutation pack, bittersweet for sure, going to be interesting for the future of this park game series for sure!

Evo thanks again for showing us all of the DLCs and your gorgeous parks.

Some thanatosdrakon facts since nobody knows what it is. Name means dragon of death, known from two well-preserved specimens in 2018 and it is the largest pterosaur from South America. Looks fantastic too!

Yes my fav creature added KELP🥰🥰🥰

I think the reason why frontier chose thanatosdrakon instead of Hatzegopterx is because the Hatzeg would have to compete with the quetz for "giant pterosaur" and using a smaller but similar looking pterosaur makes sense to avoid the quetz getting overshadowed.

Thank you frontier for being the coolest dev company ever.

This pack is the GOAT now. Weird that the megladon eats its own descendant. They treated us with this so comprimised on the free update last time. I prefer this set up tbh.

And MICROCERATUS IS THERE ! you must've been bumping in your seat when you saw this trailer for the first time.

1:19 I just hope the megalodon feeding isn’t just a reused animation of the dunkletous

I just seen it absolute hype just stuff we have been asking for thats dope

I'm very happy because of the news, but I have to say I'm disappointed with the free content. I was expecting a new kind of attraction, like the Cretaceous Cruise, which has been asked for the community since the first game. I hope they focus more on the rides on the third game if it's also a park build.

3:34 - Finally! now we can truly recreate the nesting ground scene from the 2000 Disney movie! (we are looking at you National Jurassic! 😉)

This is so amazing waiting for this new DLC 😊.

Even though I never expected it, I love the Thanatosdrakon!

I'm happy that Microceratus is finally in the game, though I'm a bit bummed that Smilodon isn't included.

I think cenozoic species might be saved for the third game

You posted this when my school day starts

Love your vids❤

The Tylosaurus need to eat from the Shark feeder too

0:46 FINALLY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS THE KING OF THE OCEAN FINALLY ARRIVES TO JURASSIC WORLD EVOLUTION 2👑🦈

Thanatosdrakon is quite similar to Hatzgoptyeryx, they're both giant, stocky pterosaurs, to the point where you could basically slap the name "Hatzgopteryx" into that same design and no one would notice, so getting Thanato makes me equally happy, in fact my might even prefer it since it adds more South America representation which the game really lacks + i always love seeing obscure, recently described species getting the spotlight.

Now we need to start being vocal about getting decorative pieces that would help us make a high-security facility. Or even functional ones such as security gates and check points for pedestrian paths.

This is definitely an exciting pack!! But kinda disappointed it's not a Cenozoic pack as I was really expecting the smilodon to appear as it's the last creature missing from Camp Cretaceous

YES!!! With Microceratus & Segisaurus, WE HAVE ALL OF THE ORIGINAL INGEN'S LIST DINOSAURS!!!

Meg is definitely the selling point for me here and ending the last DLC with microceratus is definitely a right move that I very much appreciated. also, another feathered pteranodon is always a welcome addition considering we only have two so far with jeholopterus and quatzalcoatlus and I don't think adding smilodon is truly necessary for a game revolving around dinosaurs considering we already have lystrosaurus, dimetrodon, megalodon, and the dunk for variations outside of dinosaur and prehistoric reptile. Hopefully, in JWE3 or the next game, they will have a pack revolving around mesozoic animals and even allowed us to breed them like in Zoo Tycoon 2.

I have to say that the Thanatodrakon is easily my favorite of the bunch.

It’s been 10 minutes how is this video already out 😭

5/5 for me. I love that everyone gaslight themselves into thinking it was mammals.

All of the designs look really cool, but I personally really like the microceratus design.

I love that frontier reveals the dlc trailer and says it’s coming soon three days like the hybrid dlc

it's simply horrible, a tiny species, the megalodon will be little used because aquariums are terrible, the only ones that can be saved are the micro and the flying one all this for the same price as the other dlcs... and the free update is even worse we are accepting very little from this company, an update every 3/4 months for minimal changes and new dinosaurs that are not worth the price

Happy for megaladon but honestly I don’t care about anything else… hopefully a pack with a mammoth comes out before the game ends😢

I bet Thanatosdrakon is just someone in Frontier's favourite, but I LOVE the pycnofibres/protofeathers on it!

I'll have know thanatosdrakon is one of my favorite animals because its name essentially means death dragon.

That was ....... unexpected (lets be honest, we all thought its cenozoic pack) We all agree that Microceratus is more exciding addition than Megalodon?

Massive W for Frontier

I think Thanatosdrakon was added as another Azhdarchid (something that was requested) and but also as a newly named species.

This is so cool! I’m excited for the Megalodon to finally be In the game! It’s been such an amazing journey frontier thank you for this!

Thanatodrakon! A lesser known Azhdarchid with an awesome name! I actually get why they went with this instead of Hatzegopteryx. It's smaller and more distinct from Quetzalcoatlus I think, more interesting. Plus, Hatzegopteryx is a bigger name pterasaur that they may be saving for the 3rd game. On another note, I love its more fossil accurate head and beak shape! ^-^

HECK YEAH LETS GO 5/5!

My beloved Microceratus 😭❤ I loved it, and I loved the Segisaurus, now I can sell my renamed Coelophisys from my Jurassic Park recreation. The only thing I miss is the river cruise, I hope this isn't the last dlc and we will get this attraction

I haven't played JWE2. So I'm definitely gonna start it back up when this DLC comes out.

Evo, just a question, how did you get so good at building? Your parks are always so good and I’m trying to get better, any tips?

I think the Thanatosdracon was added to this dlc because people asked for Hatzegopteryx, which is the same azhdarchid, just about the same size as quetzalcoatl. Thanatosdracon is similar to Hatzegopteryx, but differs from Quetz in its size, making it just as unique

I give this pack a 5/5! Though the nature of the dlc pack makes me wonder if it really IS the last pack. If it is, I say this game had a GOOD, LONG RUN. Maybe the Cenozoic pack(s) could be a main selling point of Evo 3. Edit: This may be a good thing in the long run! Because given we're getting Chaos Theory later this year and the new movie next year, it lines up with Evo 3 for the new packs as well, since each game's release follows in line with a film release.

Was hoping for a crocodilian pack or at least a new mammal, Great video evo.

Wow very exciting although questioning the pterasaur should've been Hatzegopteryx but looks really cool. Also surprised that the update is adding Little Eatly, kelp and lagoon lights to land decorations. I have my opinions on this news but hope that this is not the last update on the game.

What also makes Thanatosdrakon interesting is that it's a recently described genus being named back in 2022 Also I like Thanatosdrakon because it's a smaller azhdarchid like it's smaller than Quetzalcoatlus but it looks bigger than the other pterosaurs in the game

Yep gonna get it I’ve wanted a big flyer so I can get that in this new pack (also mainly it’s because they all look like they have fantastic skins)

This dlc and update are jawsome!

Omg i love the microceratus! They are gonna get the homalecephale treatment aren’t they?

I think Thanatosdrakon fits for “fan favorite” through being an Azhdarchid, but maybe they wanted it to have more differences than Hatzegorpteryx? It certainly does stand out with its head shape

It is the end, and I have to say what an amazing few years we've had. So satisfied. Looking forward to continuing playing the game and also excited about what JWE3 could bring. A big thank you Frontier and you, Evo.

Lagoon and aviary tunnels. Also we gonna get at least 1 more dlc, probably 2 more free upd.

Megalodon vs Mosasaur finally happening after a very long wait 🔥 I'm really hoping they add the Troodon Pectinodon from JP The Game so then we have the Nightmare Trio along with Scorpius and Indoraptor

They need to make lots of just dino packs. There were so MANY dinosaurs back then!! Exciting ones like Argentinosaurus, or Lambeosaurus (one of my favorites). They would definitely release packs with 5-6 dinosaurs to give more variety in the game. Would buy all of them

LETS GOO ITS COMING OUT ON MY BIRTHDAY 🎉

I wish that frontier add to game the reproduction of dinosaurs. GOOD VIDEO EVO. :) (If this message are not good writed, sorry, its because im spanish).

Kinda wanted a cenzoic pack but this pack did not disappoint!

I am very excited for the new pack. My Tiny Titans section of my mega park will finally have a herbivore.

the the micro going replace the homalocephale attack testing lol i can just see it

OMG IM SO EXCITED

My favorite pterosaur, gosh I’m glad they’re adding Thanatosdrakon to the game! Anyways the Megalodon seems to look like a great white (skin obviously), bull shark (blunt head), tiger shark (stripes) and whale shark (dot pattern) had a baby that came out perfectly

The placebo effect dlc is fine as last and the algae in the lagoon is perfect. My favorite species is Thanastodrakor i love it ❤

I hope in JWE3 we get cenozoic creatures. Similar to how they added aquatic creatures

I’m so excited for megalodon, it’s good that they repay us after tricking us with the dunk preview
