Introduces new research branches within the Science, Security, and Entertainment development trees: Plumage & Feather Genetic Modification (enhances thermal resistance and vibrancy of therizinosaur feathers), Heavy Osteoderm Density (strengthens ankylosaur armor against predator bites and vehicle impacts), Asian Architectural Engineering (reduces construction costs and maintenance decay on Oriental scenery), and Holographic Projection Tuning (increases guest park appeal and educational rating through customized dinosaur holographic displays).

Progression is centered on park management and genetic engineering. The new breeding system allows players to guide the genetic inheritance of traits over generations. Players unlock new buildings, attractions, and species by achieving goals. New automation systems, like the ATV Maintenance Team and security cameras, allow for more streamlined park management.

Includes brand-new sandbox and challenge maps set in East Asian biomes: The Karst Valley (towering limestone peaks, winding river estuaries, and dense bamboo groves requiring multi-tiered terraced park construction) and the Flaming Cliffs Reserve (sprawling arid sand dunes, exposed red sandstone ravines, and sudden flash sandstorms). These expansive maps offer generous buildable terrain, deep natural water reservoirs, and specialized cliff niches suited for elevated aerial and dinosaur viewing decks.

The campaign is non-linear, allowing players to travel freely between unlocked park locations across the globe. Confirmed settings include never-before-seen islands inspired by Japan and Hawaii, as well as the Montana Badlands.

Jurassic World Evolution 3: Prehistoric East launches worldwide on September 29, 2026, for $19.99 USD across PC (Steam, Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. It requires the base game Jurassic World Evolution 3 to play. A comprehensive Jurassic World Evolution 3: Asian Heritage Bundle is also available for $69.99 USD, containing the base game, Prehistoric East, and the Deluxe Upgrade Pack.

The game is available in a Standard Edition (£49.99 / $59.99) and a Deluxe Edition (£64.99 / $74.99). The Deluxe Edition includes four additional prehistoric families (Protoceratops, Guanlong, Thanatosdrakon, Concavenator) and other bonus cosmetic skins and scenery. A 'Badlands Set' of scenery items is available as a pre-order bonus.

Prehistoric East releases concurrently with Free Update 1.5 for all Jurassic World Evolution 3 owners. Update 1.5 introduces the highly requested Walkway Attraction—allowing park builders to construct elevated glass and timber walkways bridging land, water bodies, aviaries, and aquatic lagoons—as well as the return of the Carcharodontosaurus with full juvenile and adult family breeding mechanics.

• Q: Is there multiplayer?
  A: No, the game is a single-player management simulation. However, it features the cross-platform 'Frontier Workshop,' which allows players to seamlessly share their park and building creations with the entire community.

Powered by the latest iteration of the Cobra Engine, Prehistoric East features cutting-edge realistic feather physics on Nanshiungosaurus and Sinosauropteryx that sway with wind and ruffle during rainfall. Volumetric fog drapes over karst mountain valleys, while high-resolution ray-traced water reflections glisten on traditional koi ponds and flooded paddocks.

Combines John Williams' timeless Jurassic Park orchestral motifs with traditional East Asian instrumentation, featuring guzheng, dizi bamboo flutes, and resonant taiko percussion recorded live with full symphonic backing. Dinosaur vocalizations are crafted with cinematic depth: deep subterranean bellows for Tarbosaurus, resonant honking chirps for Nanshiungosaurus, and inquisitive bird-like trills for Sinosauropteryx.

Features Frontier's refined simulation HUD with East Asian aesthetic theme toggles. Players can monitor real-time thermal comfort zones, feeder consumption rates, pack cohesion meters, and disease contagion vectors. The new Hologram Placement Tool provides an intuitive radial menu for selecting dinosaur species and cycling through lifelike idle, roar, and hunting animations.

Provides extensive accessibility options, including adjustable game simulation speed (pause, 1x, 2x, 3x), customizable auto-save frequencies, UI scaling up to 200%, colorblind filtration modes for park heatmaps, toggleable camera motion blur and screen shake, fully remappable controls, and comprehensive subtitle customization with speaker labels.
