Jurassic World: Evolution 2 starts not optimistically, frontier lowers revenue expectations

The business simulation game Jurassic World: Evolution 2 produced by the developer Frontier Developments was released on the 11th and 9th. Two weeks have passed. Frontier said that the sales volume of Jurassic World: Evolution 2 has increased at the beginning of the game. It’s very slow and not very optimistic. This prompted Frontier to lower its revenue expectations for this fiscal year.

The company currently expects revenue to be between 100 million and 130 million pounds for the 12-month period ending May 31, 2022. In its annual results released in September, the forecast is between 130 million and 150 million pounds. Frontier’s transaction update to investors provided more information about the game’s performance and the company’s expectations, which showed that although PC sales were below expectations, sales on consoles were basically in line with expectations.

In a comment at the end of the update, Frontier founder and CEO David Braben stated that the game has sold approximately 500,000 copies on all platforms. And said that the game contributed the largest circulation and revenue in this fiscal year. However, due to the game’s lower-than-expected sales and the poor performance of the “Elite: Danger” DLC Odyssey, it prompted it to lower its forecast.

However, Frontier is still optimistic about Jurassic World: Evolution 2 overall, describing the poor performance on the PC as a stage problem and predicting that there will be a large number of sales around Christmas. Brabe said the PC version of the game is still exciting, with more than 440,000 wishlists on Steam. They told investors that Jurassic World Evolution 2 will surpass Jurassic World: Evolution within the first 12 months after its release.

In addition, Frontier also stated that the next movie in the Jurassic series Jurassic World: Reign will be released in June 2022.
