Frontier Develops New Disney Game Partnership

Frontier Developments has announced a partnership with Disney to create a new video game drawing on Disney's intellectual property. The studio, known for developing Planet Coaster and the Jurassic World Evolution series, will fully fund the project, though specifics about the game's content and release timeline have not been disclosed.

According to a statement from the company, the upcoming title will leverage Frontier's expertise in creative management simulation games, a genre in which the developer has established itself as a leader. The partnership represents an expansion of Frontier's strategy to develop and maintain world-class management simulation franchises.

Frontier's chief executive officer emphasized the significance of the collaboration, describing it as an opportunity to connect players passionate about creative management experiences with one of the world's most recognizable entertainment brands. The executive expressed enthusiasm about the potential of combining the studio's capabilities with Disney's properties.

The announcement arrives during a productive period for Frontier. The studio is preparing to release Planet Zoo 2 in October, which will introduce flying and aquatic animals to the franchise and expand availability beyond its original PC platform. Additionally, Frontier is developing another unannounced management game currently in production.

Frontier's recent release, Jurassic World Evolution 3, gained traction among both management game enthusiasts and dinosaur fans. The studio plans to report quarterly earnings in the coming weeks, providing investors with updates on its current projects and financial performance during what appears to be an active development cycle for the company.
