Zoo Tycoon (25th Anniversary Update)

Zoo Tycoon is an upcoming 2026 video game that will be developed by Blue Fang Games and published by Microsoft Game Studios.

This game will basically be an updated version of the first Zoo Tycoon game from 2001 with some more accurate names and information regarding most of the animals, foliage, and biomes. Also, some new animals, foliage and biomes will be added into the game as well (some based on those from ZT2, some not).
