Zoo Tycoon Expansions Coming Soon!

Africa aficionados, Jurassic fanatics and aquatic admirers alike have cause for celebration as Microsoft Game Studios confirms the upcoming releases of Zoo Tycoon 2: African Adventure and Zoo Tycoon 2: Marine Mania" expansion packs, and downloadable Zoo Tycoon 2: Dino Danger Pack for PC.
"With more than five million franchise units sold since the launch of Zoo Tycoon in 2001, we are looking forward to shaking up the animal simulation space with these exciting new additions," said Neil Thompson, Director of UK Home & Entertainment Division. "These expansion packs provide a fun and enlightening opportunity for families to game together, while also providing fresh and innovative content for current Zoo Tycoon 2 enthusiasts."
African Adventure, available in June, will allow virtual zookeepers to adopt and care for 20 new African animals from eight biomes, such as the meerkat or the endangered Ethiopian wolf. Gamers can customise their dream zoo with dozens of new buildings, objects and gift items, including the full desert theme pack.
The new African Adventure expansion pack will also enable a safari-like adventure as players view the animals in their exotic habitats in Zookeeper, Zoo Guest and Photo Safari modes, first introduced in Zoo Tycoon 2. Gamers can further extend the safari experience by venturing into their zoo in the new Jeep Liberty vehicle with optional animal-skin paint jobs. As always, children and parents can broaden their knowledge of the animal kingdom with the Zoopedia feature, which provides entertaining and interesting animal facts.
The Marine Mania expansion pack and downloadable Dino Danger Pack will further expand the Zoo Tycoon 2 experience later this year by introducing entirely new scenarios and themes. With a single click of a mouse, players will soon be able to transport the world's most unique animal species into their homes.
