Jurassic World Evolution 3 Patch Notes — June 3, 2026
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello Park Managers,
Now we've cleared the pesky Quetzacoatlus nest from our relay dish, we are thrilled to confirm the return of two species and announce the details of our next free update.
We saw the return of two Jurassic World Evolution 2 base-game family units, the Dracorex and Liopleurodon, on 1 June with Update 1.2.8 for Jurassic World Evolution 3. These species are now available in-game as whole family units, so dive straight in.
Dracorex and Liopleurodon Family Units
The Dracorex family unit has arrived! Known for its distinct, spiked skull, this 'dragon king' is bound to be a guest favourite, just make sure your enclosures are secure.
The Liopleurodon's genetic code has been delivered to your park! With a name meaning ‘smooth-sided teeth’, and this fearsome apex predator will patrol your lagoons with its sharp teeth and strong sense of smell.
Our next free update will release on 16 June, and will include a great selection of updates and improvements to Jurassic World Evolution 3, including changes to aviaries and another returning Jurassic World Evolution 2 base-game dinosaur, the Ceradactylus. Check out the free update showcase for all the details.
