During the PC Gaming Show at E3 2019, Frontier Developments showcased a new trailer for upcoming sim park management game, Planet Zoo. We were also given a release date: November 5 on PC.

Planet Zoo tasks you with building and running a zoo, from building exhibits to taking care of animals and patrons. The animals feature an advanced AI as they react to their world and each other. Complete zoo challenges around the world in the campaign or create your own park from the ground up in sandbox mode. Planet Zoo, like most modern zoos, will feature a focus on animal conservation, welfare, and education.

Planet Zoo will be available in Standard and Deluxe Editions. The Deluxe Edition ($54.99) includes early access to the Planet Zoo beta, the soundtrack, and three unique animals at launch: komodo dragon, pygmy hippo, and Thomson’s Gazelle.

Planet Zoo is coming to PC (Steam) on November 5.
