This is just the free update. The DLC has not yet been announced.
🐾 Planet Zoo - Update 1.9 coming 12 April 🐾
- Thread starter Eltanin Casciani
- Start date
Yeah, but we're not talking about feature focus, but actual update note, in which they specifically mention rice terraces and hot springs, so it's not just about the macaque
They mentioned rice terrace?
You have expected this, not all of us. Sorry, but speaking as "we" always is not the best idea because everyone has other wishes from the game. And I must say that I just expected a normal pack either animal or standard. Eastern pattern made sense to me so there was not really a mich longer time than other packs. And I am happy about this. I really do not mind if we get flying birds in the game. If we get taht should be a bigger expanaion and flying should work good. Perhaps this is the problem and aviaries are at the Moment technically restricted. Some more habitat birds would be cool like Kiwi, crane or Pelikan in my opinion. But that ist of course my opinion
I am SO here for this! So exciting, especially the hot springs!
Oh that's nice. Didn't notice the rice terrace thing in the description, just the terrace.
This all looks amazing. I’m so intrigued about what the DLC will be and I kinda like that I don’t know. Part of me leans towards tropical now with the hot springs. But I also do wonder if Frontier were going to do a huge announcement like aviaries or even fully aquatic would they try to steer us off with the updates? These aren’t always connected are they?
My new DLC template will have nine animals called animal scenery pack!
Rainforest Animal Scenery Pack
- Capybara
- Maned Wolf
- Red River Hog
- Toco Toucan
- Fossa
- Siamang
- Golden Lion Tamarin
- Common Marmoset
- Tokay Gecko (Exhibit Animal)
When we needed him most, he returned
They did indeed
Take away one of the animals to get it down to 8, the Toucan most likely for no aviation, and this is actually a really reasonable and realistic pack idea.
to the update, this is great news. Lots of great little features. The camera mode sounds like, bathing for animals will be awesome, we're not that far off!
While these features definitely are more of the "polishing" variety, I think once we get our hands on them they'll all be incredibly useful. And those that aren't universally useful will probably inspire me to create builds for animals I haven't in a while (e.g., aquatic exhibit animals, Japanese macaques).
I'm really excited to see these new features in play to see how they operate, etc. Offhandedly, I'm most excited to see how the terrace brush works! I can see that being incredibly useful for creating smaller terrain changes and adding layers to your zoo.
Also very excited for the smaller burrows!

The fact that they mention rice terraces, potentially hints at 3 things:
- We're gonna get some form of an Asian pack.
- We're gonna get rainforests instead of a continent.
- They're continuing the inside joke of introducing items that the Koali crew spent hours on creatively inventing because they didn't have it ingame.
I'm a bit confused about this part here. Wasn't this already a thing ingame?
This was from the previous announcement, but there might be something I'm missing
