Your Feature Request / Idea
This is more or less a repost of a thread from the Subreddit, by rfriar, not by me. They were asked to post the suggestion by a member of support (possibly jokingly, they directed them to the old wishlist post) and still haven't posted, so, uh, well, there it is.
Their request was a DLC containing these dinos from the polar regions:
Leaellynasaura
Nanuqsaurus
Ugrunaaluk
Australovenator
The choices aren't too bad, though I wouldn't hold my breath for a Leaellynsaura and Ugrunaaluk is tough, being a juvenile there is a chance that it could be a species of Edmontosaurus.
The most common reply from this post was outcry for the addition of *Cryolophosaurus* from Antarctica, which isn't really applicable, as the area it lived in when alive wasn't particularly cold. It's place is just as valid as *Plateosaurus*, which is found in Norway & Greenland and wasn't too cold when it was alive either.
Other appropriate dinosaurs and polar dig-sites:
Minmi/Kunbarrasaurus - Bungil Fm./Allaru Mudstone
Pachyrhinosaurus - Prince Creek Fm.
Edmontonia - Matanuska Fm.
Antarctopelta? - Snow Hill Island Fm.?
Trinisaura? - Snow Hill Island Fm.?
There is also an unnamed hadrosauroid from an earlier member the Matanuska Fm. that is also juvenile, called Lizzie. According to the abstract of 2012 study it was found to have unique, diagnosable attributes, which kind of means it has to be something new, yet still is unnamed. Though it does have a remarkably similar phylogenetic position to the other Turonian hadrosauroid Jeyawati from New Mexico, which might be the reason for this.
