📣 ANNOUNCEMENT TIME! 📣

Build a world for wildlife and manage the zoo of your dreams on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on March 26th 🎮

Pre-order now to get three exclusive animals https://www.planetzoogame.com/buy/console-standard-edition
This is wonderful news but, will those three animals are just exclusively sold in the pre-order or they can be acquired later on in the game?

If the only way to get them is by pre-ordering it is a massive bust unlike the exclusive Ingen skins for vehicles in Jurassic World Evolution 2.
 
I suppose no matter what the move, there's always going to be people who defend it.

Firstly, the Huayangosaurus situation got attention because it was a vanilla JWE animal being put as part of the deluxe content, this is a different situation that has nothing to do with such an issue at all.
This is a different situation that's... worse, since it effectively locks the majority of the future playerbase out of animals that have been available since day 1 on PC? They're effectively serving as needlessly cut content for said playerbase if we take Frontier at their word. More on that in a moment.

Second, is there any confirmation that the preorder bonus will be permanently locked out? No? Right, because you are you just assuming things with no basis. Not only that, but it makes no sense that Frontier would do that instead of monetizing those 3 animals afterwards. It's not hard to use some common sense instead of going around asking why people aren't mad about scenarios you made up in your mind
You're framing things in a way that's clearly uncharitable and simply not the case. They have literally been branded as "pre-order exclusives." Emphasis on exclusive there. That is as much of a literal, direct basis as there could be if you take them at their word. Could they turn around and release them anyway in some other pack? Theoretically sure, but their word choice indicates the exact opposite right now. And they never released the pre-order content for their other CMS games as paid DLC. There's simply not a precedent for that.
 
Right because a vehicle skin is on the same level as 3 species that are part of the deluxe edition in the pc version. Well if you guys are so sure about this unfair injustice I'm sure you will do what is in your hands to force Frontier into changing their minds right? Not really my concern as I am not interested in buying the console edition :p

Well Frontier,

I've been waiting for a console version for quite a while and it's nice to hear that support for the PC will continue which means more DLC. I've had many animals I'd like to see, and I've narrowed down which ones I want to see added before it's done. Some of it might be wishful thinking, but if they can be found in any zoo around the world (minus abused or poorly cared zoos) then they can be in the game. Please, and thank you.

Hi there I'm new to this type of thing but can anyone tell me if there is going to be a physical copy of this game or is it just digital
 
No, I think there's no physical copy. I bought the game via download at steam.
I think at least for the PC Version, there's a Way to get it as a CD Case but it will basically just be a empty Case with a Activation Code in it. Or if there's a CD inside, you will probably still need to download most of the Files
 
Cool, so I feel like a good exclusive animal would have been a Red-Eared Slider or a Lord Howie Island Stick Insect. Ethier way this is neat.
