Jurassic World Evolution 2 was recently released as the sequel to the successful 2018 game. However, players have been discovering some bugs that need to be fixed.

Recent reports from Jurassic World Evolution 2 players indicate that the dinosaurs release or hatchery animation is not playing or not working well.

Jurassic World Evolution 2 release or hatchery animation not playing

According to player reports (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), when they release species in Jurassic World Evolution 2, the animation that should appear is not displayed. Instead, the game spawn the different species.

I’ve only seen the first 3 in the campaign and over the course of the last three days I haven’t seen any of them since. I release a species and the game refuses to play the animation. Actively (cinematic) or passively (no cinematic, but hatchery opens and things proceed as normal). Rather, it spawns all the animals at once inside each other after a couple of seconds have passed. This happens in all three hatchery types, on all maps and at all times.

Other animations reportedly affected too

It should be noted that not only the release or hatchery animation would be ‘broken’. Other players report that the animations of hunting, fights and other interactions between animals would not be shown either.

After a few minutes of playing. The dinosaurs stop hunting, fighting and all other animations stop same thing goes for hatchery animations i have seen a ton of people with this problem yet frontier seems te be avoiding any mention of last gen problems even on the bug list theirs like 10 people saying the games broken. I cant enjoy the game because the dinosaurs cant do anything the game just breaks after a few minutes and without this one glitch that just breaks the entire game for ps4 users the game would be really enjoyable.

This bug has a noticeable negative impact on the game experience. After all, the interactions between animal species would be lost, one of the greatest attractions of the theme park management game.

There are also reports that the game crashes completely. This would occur in situations like accumulating many dinosaurs in a specific area.
