During The Game Awards, Saber Interactive revealed the next title coming in the Jurassic Park franchise as Jurassic Park: Survival. At its core, JP: Survival is a single-player action-adventure game set in the immersive world of Jurassic Park. More specifically, players will return to a fully realized Isla Nublar which is now filled with living dinosaurs. Details are sparse, but here’s what we know including a potential release window, the reveal trailer, and more.
Features and Story
In Jurassic Park: Survival, players are returning to Isla Nublar literally one day after the events from the popular 1993 Jurassic Park film. Taking on the role of Dr. Maya Joshi, an InGen scientist who was unable to evacuate the island, players will explore the island in an original narrative-driven adventure.
Along the way, players will also encounter challenges as they struggle to survive on the island including first-person stealth and action encounters. All of this while adventuring through the lush world of wonder and mystery which is Isla Nublar.
Key Features:
- Explore Isla Nublar – Players will venture through a fully realized Isla Nublar filled with reactive wildlife, dinosaurs, and other surprising threats. From the iconic towering park gates to the Visitor Center and beyond, Jurassic Park comes alive like never before.
- Evade Prehistoric Predators – Players will outsmart, escape, and interact with the film’s iconic dinosaurs. They’ll use their ingenuity through distraction and stealth to navigate intense and unforgettable encounters in a journey to outlast some of the deadliest creatures to ever walk the earth.
- Survive The Island – Players will be challenged to explore the park and face its dangers. They’ll use all the resources at their disposal to find intelligent solutions to endure the many threats lurking on Isla Nublar.
“We’ve consistently heard from our fans that they’ve been waiting for a game to immerse them in Jurassic Park like never before and, well, we found a way. We’re excited to finally reveal that the iconic film is coming to life in an all-new video game in partnership with the amazing talent at Saber Interactive and can’t think of a better way to culminate the year-long celebration of Jurassic Park’s 30th anniversary than with this thrilling announcement.

Cinematic Reveal Trailer
Saber also released the official announcement trailer for Jurassic Park: Survival. Even though it’s primarily a cinematic trailer, there are a few gameplay snippets flashed throughout, specifically at the end. The trailer shows off the main character, Dr. Maya Joshi, as well as the now-abandoned Jurassic Park on Isla Nebular.
Release Date Speculation
Unfortunately, Saber did not provide any sort of release timeframe for Jurassic Park: Survival. Historically speaking, this usually points towards a title still being a ways off. Hopefully, we will see a release date for Jurassic Park: Survival that puts it in the later part of 2024. However, it’s also entirely possible we won’t be able to experience the dinosaur-filled fun until 2025.
As this is the first we’re hearing about Jurassic Park: Survival as a whole, hopefully, we’ll see more soon as we head into 2024. Whenever it does release, we know that Jurassic Park: Survival will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
