Frontier Developments has introduced on Twitter that Planet Zoo is coming to consoles. What consoles? I don’t know. When? I don’t know that, both.

It’s occurring, although! Frontier Developments dropped a teaser that exhibits a controller sitting on a breakroom espresso desk (I feel) whereas one thing unrelated goes on within the background. That’s it. You now know all the things that I do know.

That’s until you haven’t performed Planet Zoo. Initially launched in 2019 as a companion (spin-off?) of 2016’s Planet Coaster, it’s a administration sim about constructing and operating your individual zoo. The Planet video games are all about filling the hole left by video games like Curler Coaster Tycoon and Zoo Tycoon. Nonetheless, I really feel they’ve their very own distinct taste.

What I imply by that’s that Planet Zoo feels prefer it’s extra about customization and constructing your dream zoo than it’s about difficult you to maintain it worthwhile and profitable. Don’t get me improper, there’s nonetheless a few of that. You do have to hold your zoo worthwhile and profitable, nevertheless it simply feels really easy. Or perhaps it’s simply simple for me as a result of I grew up on a hearty weight-reduction plan of tycoon video games. I can’t inform anymore.

Nonetheless, to me, it felt extra prefer it gave you a tonne of instruments and belongings to assist you to customise your habitats at a really granular stage. This is able to have actually appealed to younger Zoey, however previous Zoey doesn’t have the identical free time or consideration span. I do should surprise how the UI and all these instruments will translate to a controller, however we’ll have to attend and see.

For now, you’ll be able to seize Planet Zoo on PC. Having spent a couple of paragraphs speaking about it, I feel I’m going to reinstall.
