Planet Zoo 2 is a zoo-building game in which players create animal habitats and look after the animals in their care. Research represents the work needed to learn how best to support different species and manage a zoo.
The game groups research into four categories, covering areas such as animal species, enclosure choices and disease treatments. Completing topics can unlock options that help players care for animals and develop their zoos, as well as give visitors more to see.
There are more than 200 research topics available at launch, and the total may increase as the game adds species. The system therefore shapes how players expand and manage their zoos over time.
