6 years after the original, Planet Zoo 2 is finally happening and may be out next year

Celebrating its sixth anniversary today, the zookeeping simulation game Planet Zoo has garnered a positive reception since its launch. Chris Livingston, PC Gamer’s esteemed menagerie manager, reviewed the game, noting it as “another strong (yet stressful) management sim from Frontier Developments,” awarding it a solid 75% rating.

Hints of a Sequel

In honor of this milestone, Frontier Developments released a special anniversary video that has caught the attention of fans and industry observers alike. While anniversary videos often blend into the background, this particular one stands out due to a compelling hint at a potential sequel. The video features a countdown from 2019, the year Planet Zoo debuted, extending to 2025 and intriguingly culminating in 2026, which gradually morphs into a “2.” This subtle yet clear indication has sparked excitement among the community, suggesting that the beloved franchise may soon expand its horizons.

For those interested in exploring the game further, Fanatical is currently offering a 55% discount on all of Planet Zoo’s extensive downloadable content, making it an opportune moment for both new players and seasoned fans to dive back into the vibrant world of zookeeping.
