Asian dinosaurs

I mean, we already have an Asian Tyrannosaur. And Tarbosaurus is very similar in shape and size to Tyrannosaurus. So I don't think that's needed.
Saurolophus and Deinocheirus? Yes please. Saurolophus should have a balloon nose and Deinocheirus should have feathers.

Tarbosaurus is not similaire than tyrannosaurus rex. There more differences between t rex and Tarbosaurus than lions and tigers (20-30 difference on the skull)
Well...Tarbosaurus in the game could be a smaller "accurate rex" version so in understand perfectly the suggestion
Still very similar.
Here skull difference
Tarbosaurus
Tyrannosaur rex
Tarbosaurus is closer to alioramus than tyrannosaurus rex
You don't have to link to a bunch of pictures. I know what they look like. And saying it's closer to Alioramus is just false. Alioramus is an Alioramin. Tarbosaurus is a Tyrannosaurin. Different tribes. Tarbosaurus' closest relatives are Zhuchengtyrannus and Tyrannosaurus.
Although it's not the consensus, a number of scientists even place Tarbosaurus bataar in the same genus as Tyrannosaurus. In which case it would be Tyrannosaurus bataar.
Tarbosaurus bataar is the most similar animal to Tyrannosaurus rex that is currently described.
I think the point they're trying to make is that T-Rex and Qiangzhousaurus already give us everything that Tarbosaurus could add, so maybe we should consider something a bit more unique, such as:
Yutyrannus
A large proceratosaurid; unlike Deinocheirus, there is no debating the fact that it had feathers.
Protoceratops
The "sheep" of the Cretaceous, it's fossils are extremely common.
Pinacosaurus
One of the best known genre of ankylosaurs; a near complete skeleton with armor still in place is known.
Shunosaurus
The sauropod with the club tail; a "roommate" for Huayangosaurus.
Yangchuanosaurus
The "Allosaurus" of China; still no Asian Jurassic carnivores.
Tuojiangosaurus
The "Stegosaurus" of China; still weird they picked Chungkingosaurus over this guy.
Mononykus
An insect eating alvarezsaur; we've yet to get one of those.

My bad it i saw this on discord but still there are major difference between them.
Yeah i know but tarbosaurus earns to be ingame there not many games with it. It apeard in fallen kingdom as skeleton or paint it could be nice to have it
If any extra Tyrannosaurid should be added I think Teratophoneus is a good candidate. It's also quite big and we know it's canon.
Like, to be fair. Tarbosaurus wouldn't be a bad addition. It's still a cool animal. But I just think there are other cooler dinosaurs that are better candidates to be added.
