A new era is born! Jurassic World Evolution 3: Rebirth Expansion is available now on PC and Console.

Inspired by the events of Jurassic World Rebirth, unleash 4 movie themed species, experience a full narrative campaign inspired by Jurassic World: Rebirth and enhance your locations with a range of detailed scenery pieces!

The Distortus rex is the first of its kind with unique kill animations and immense aggression. Challenge your facility’s security against a relentless dinosaur that puts staff safety to the ultimate test.

The Mutadon is a versatile species, able to traverse both land and air with equal ferocity! Combining the cunning hunting abilities of the Velociraptor with the Pterosaur’s dominance of the air, this calculated predator poses a serious challenge to contain.

Where does the dinosaur begin and the tail end? The Titanosaurus family unit have pillar like legs to hold its incredible weight and a long, slender tail. Towering over Île Saint-Hubert, uncover the iconic species from the movie with the never-before-seen juvenile variant.

Small in size but huge in appeal, the Aquilops family unit brings variety to the ceratopsian roster. Featuring a unique striped tail, this little herbivore's name means 'Eagle Face', referring to its distinctive beak.

Learn even more about how the four new species of Jurassic World Rebirth were taken from the silver screen to your monitor with our Behind the Scenes article[www.jurassicworldevolution.com].

Inspired by the events of Jurassic World Rebirth, push the boundaries of science and develop a top-secret facility across three stunning locations. Use new technology to manage formidable predators, study enormous dinosaurs and synthesise semi-aquatic wonders as a part of the team on Île Saint-Hubert.

Dive into our Behind the Scenes[www.jurassicworldevolution.com] to look at how our Development Team crafted the campaign for Jurassic World Evolution 3: Rebirth Expansion.
