Update 12 is coming soon on
October 28!
New Animals
This upcoming release introduces three new fan-requested animals: the armored
Ankylosaurus and two large sauropods,
Apatosaurus and
Brontosaurus. These creatures can be accessed immediately in the game’s Sandbox mode or by completing Excavations in Challenge mode.
New Content
- REDWOOD VALLEY MAP & COASTAL BIOME
A diverse playable space, inspired by the California coast. Features varied terrain heights, unlike most other maps in the game.
This map is best complemented by the newly improved Coastal biome foliage, adding sequoias, a huge variety of ferns and the floral rhododendron.
- RUSTIC BUILDING THEME
Dozens of new scenery pieces and construction materials with an aesthetic inspired by US National Parks.
- STAFF TRAINING
Research new upgrades to improve staff efficiency, building off what was introduced in Update 11.
Improvements
As Prehistoric Kingdom is an Early Access game, we take great pride in valuing community feedback, whether it’s through Steam reviews or communication channels such as Discord.
- NEW TUTORIAL SYSTEM
Players can now access a set of guided tutorials at any time from within their Challenge or Sandbox games. We will be expanding the amount of tutorials and adding narration in a future update!

- OFFICIAL BUILDING PREFABS
The game’s built-in collection of building prefabs (structures built using piece by piece construction) has been overhauled to not only be more expansive, but more consistent, too. It’s much easier to build a good looking zoo!
- QUALITY OF LIFE
In Update 12, a big quality of life improvement are Notifications and the Park Issues menu, allowing players to be quickly notified of troublespots in the park.
Heavy optimizations continue to be made, with noticeable improvements to loading times!
The full patch notes will be available once the update goes live.
See you soon, park managers!
