Jurassic World Evolution: Return To Jurassic Park

The Return To Jurassic Park DLC for Jurassic World Evolution was developed and published by Frontier Developments and released in 2019. It was created as a specialist nostalgia‑driven expansion that explicitly ties the simulation back to the original Jurassic Park film era.

The DLC invites players to rebuild and manage the original 1993 park, adding a voiced narrative campaign featuring characters from the film, period‑accurate attractions like the Main Gates and the original tour infrastructure, two additional dinosaur species, legacy skin variants, and a 1993 visual overlay that can be applied to challenge and sandbox scenarios to recreate the film’s look and atmosphere.

Promotion for the pack leaned heavily on its close connection to the movie, emphasizing the return to the original island, the inclusion of original cast voices, and the authentic visual and audio touches in trailers and developer communications. Marketing focused on nostalgia and cinematic presentation to attract both fans of the films and existing players who wanted a more story‑led, film‑accurate experience.

Reception among players was strongly positive, with many reviewers and community members praising the faithful recreation of the film’s locations, the added narrative content and voice performances, and the extra dinosaurs and legacy skins. The DLC was widely regarded as a high‑quality, fan‑service expansion that deepened the franchise experience within the park management simulation.
