Does it really matter if the game isn't even canon?
The base game DFW campaign is said to be by Frontier themselves in an interview article on Newsweek, as a bridging gap prologue story of their own between JW:FK and JWD.
'Jurassic World Evolution 2' Developers on How the Game Sets Up 'Dominion'
In an interview with Newsweek, the developers of "Jurassic World Evolution 2" spoke about how their game bridges the gap between "Fallen Kingdom" and "Dominion".

Did I say it mattered? All I asked was if it was canon. That has nothing to do with if I'd play it or not
It seems to be, at least Mission 1, which is the only part we know about and is the founding and construction of the big Biosyn building and gathering amber/cloning the dinosaurs. It also has a couple of surprises I won't spoil.

As for the Dominion Biosyn Campaign, I don't know yet. All that's known is that its a story of the rise of the Biosyn valley sanctuary. But until confirmation is said so, I can only suspect so based on how its approached from what videos show of the campaign that nobody has finished.'Jurassic World Evolution 2' Developers on How the Game Sets Up 'Dominion'

Unless Universal (The Company which OWNS Jurassic Park/world) comes out and says it, this game isn't canon. Just because a Game company (which doesn't own the franchise btw) says it is doesn't mean it's true. By That logic, Jurassic Park Trespasser would be canon just because I say so.
Trespasser had no "canon" stance by anybody on any side. Not even to this day. Other than being (unofficially) stated as a sequel to The Lost World: Jurassic Park, no "canon" statement was made by anyone involved.
Jurassic World Evolution 2's DFW campaign has a much different context, in which Frontier said in the article I shared they worked closely with Universal to ensure it fits within not only their franchise, but their "canon" vision as well.

Hello Francesca, I am very much looking forward the new JWE2 DLC and free update but as multiple members of the community keep asking (myself included), why we have yet to see: Moros, Iguanadon variant, Atrociraptors, Lystrosaurus, Microceratus, Mosa skin as well the Oviaraptor?
Moros and an Iguanadon variant exclusion are concerning as they are seen in the film inside Biosyn compound?
, please give aus these things to decorate the park for more realism (for me it is ok without function). And some more lamps, also little ones...Will there be any changes to the Jurassic difficulty in challenges? I read you made it way worse in a previous update so hopefully youve fixed that?
Will giant carnivores FINALLY roar after killing other giant carnivores?
Really appreciate the sandbox additions but please make all locations available for sandbox mode without having to play other modes, you guys did it for the dinosaurs so it only makes sense to also do this for the locations. There are a lot of people that only want to play sandbox and make their dream park. Now for us on PC its easy with mods and downloaded save games but come on give those on console also the option to dive straight into their favorite mode. On Twitter, Facebook, Reddit and Discord there been so many people asking for this. Specially now that lots of new people get to play on Xbox with gamepass the complaints grew bigger that they cant play their favorite location in their favorite mode. So please unlock them for sandbox mode or make it an option.
Are the invisible fences era locked?
I haven't seen the movie yet and not really looking forward to it because I am not a fan of the JW movies. But everything in the Dominion Biosyn update looks pretty good. Though the feathered dinosaurs look a bit odd to me and I don't really care for feathered dinosaurs. But they still look good. Therizinosaurus looks like a hybrid though. It's really weird looking. But I can't wait for the update. I know it's not Frontiers fault and I don't know what Dodgson was like in the movie but in the books, he wasn't a real nice guy. In the game he seems kind of nice. It just seems kind of odd if you know the character from the books.
What time is this coming out for australia?
What exactly about the Therizinosaurus strikes you as more hybrid like? If it's just the overall creature, that's just what paleontologists believe they looked like.
The long neck. The long claws. It's just a weird looking dinosaur. Especially since it's considered a herbivore. Being bipedal makes it seem more like a carnivore.
Sure it's weird. But, that's kinda just what it is and what's appealing about it. Not sure if you're criticizing it or not.
Well... that's what it looks like. And FYI it is a theropod; its closest relatives are carnivores.
To me, Dodgson seemed nice, but thoroughly blinded by ambition in the movie, to the point that nothing mattered to him beyond moving forward... so much so, that when problems arise, he'd sooner bury them and move on then try fixing them. Probably worth mentioning John Hammond was also a terrible man in the novel.

And this is why hybrids were a dumb idea to begin with. There are so many real dinosaurs that are absolutely weird and super cool. And they actually existed. Many real dinosaurs are weirder and more interesting than the bland hybrids we got in the films.
