The Megalodon is coming to Jurassic World Evolution 3.

Having roamed prehistoric oceans around 20 million years ago, the Megalodon is one of the largest shark species ever discovered, measuring as long as 15 meters, weighing up to 50 tonnes, and boasting — gulp — over 270 teeth.

Of course, you may better know the Megalodon as The Meg, the enormous shark Jason Statham goes toe-to-toe with during the 2018 action flick.

"Guests are certain to be drawn to lagoons where Megalodon lurks, with a large body of water needed to have its impressive silhouette," Frontier teased.

"Placing a shark feeder allows park managers to provide ample food for this powerful prehistoric giant, while creating unforgettable moments for onlookers as it surges from the water to take a bite."

Jurassic World Evolution 3 launches on October 21, 2025, and will be available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series, with both a standard and Deluxe edition available at $59.99 / €59.99 / £49.99 and $74.99 / €74.99 / £64.99, respectively. It's the third iteration of Frontier's fan-favorite management sim, in which you manage your very own park full of dinosaurs and fight to keep both the people and the exhibits happy and healthy.

We're also told that The Meg can occasionally develop a taste for its own offspring, too, so something to take into account as you're designing your park, perhaps?!

Jurassic World Evolution 3 official reveal trailer debuted over the summer, but the premiere was overshadowed by a backlash from fans who had identified the use of generative AI. Since then, Frontier has committed to not using any AI assets.
