Official Fact Sheet:
“Zoo Tycoon 2,” the newest addition to the massively popular and award-winning “Zoo Tycoon” franchise, provides the ultimate zoo experience, and now allows players to step into their zoo where they’ll be face-to-face with animals and guests in an all-new 3-D world. Enhanced building options and more management choices allow players of all ages and skill levels to be even more creative in building and managing habitats and zoo attractions so that guests are happier and animals are more entertaining.
- Get closer to the action. Players can now step into their dream zoo via the all-new Zootopia functionality and enhanced 3-D graphics to experience it all first-hand. Walk around with guests and enjoy the zoo via Zoo Guest mode, or come face-to-face with animals while caring, feeding and improving their happiness in Zookeeper mode. Finally, take pictures of the animals in action and create a photo album to share online with friends using the Zoo Photo Safari.
- New ways to build. “Zoo Tycoon 2” features more than 300 building objects including exhibit materials, themed buildings, guest attractions and toys. Creating an exhibit is easier than ever with the new Habitat Builder tool that allows players to build moats, waterfalls and more. The Biome Brush provides the final touches on a new exhibit, painting different landscapes instantly to create natural deserts, rainforests, arctic tundras and wetlands.
- Deeper gameplay. Random and Dynamic challenges in the Campaign and Freeform modes allow players even deeper, more interesting gameplay scenarios. Take on additional challenges, such as nursing an animal back to health through Random challenges presented to players during the course of zoo building, or accept Dynamic challenges which relate directly to the scenario or map the player is currently playing. How players design and build their zoos determines the type of animations their animals perform, while balancing the changing needs of both guests and animals is paramount to having the ultimate zoo.
- Downloadable content. Free downloadable content including more building objects and animals adds variety to creating the ultimate zoo, with ongoing updates all available at
