VGChartz's Paul Broussard: "This year's shortlist for Best Strategy/Simulation Game features a small but superb list of titles. Fire Emblem: Three Houses marked the series' return to home consoles after a 12 year hiatus, combining Fire Emblem's staple turn-based gameplay with teaching and army customization elements. Planet Zoo, a spiritual successor to Zoo Tycoon, took the former's design of constructing and managing habitats for wildlife and expanded it substantially. Total War: Three Kingdoms provided users with the ability to choose from a myriad of warlords and form alliances strategically while attempting to conquer China. Last, but certainly not least, Untitled Goose Game took the gaming world by storm as both a puzzle solver and an outlet for causing trouble."
From GameWatcher: "Frontier Developments has announced that Planet Zoo, its resource management simulation game, will be released on the Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 on the 26th of March. The game was originally launched on PC in 2019.
Planet Zoo will cost £39.99 / $49.99 / €49.99 and pre-ordering will grant players access to three exclusive animals: the Pygmy Hippopotamus, Komodo Dragon, and Thomson’s Gazelle."
Definitely interested in this one. I enjoyed the one on gamepass though I can't recall the name. I enjoy these types of games from time to time.
From Review: "Planet Zoo‘s Tropical Pack DLC takes players to lush uncharted forests full of exciting architecture and peculiar animals. It was released alongside the 1.13 update which finally lets us set our own custom paths and brings some exciting gameplay improvements!"
Frontier Developments announced today a brand-new expansion for the ultimate zoo simulation, Planet Zoo. Bringing players a mesmerising selection of animals hailing from dunes, deserts and dusty plains, Planet Zoo: Arid Animal Pack arrives on PC via Steam on 20th June
