'Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection' Tramples Onto Store Shelves

Microsoft Game Studios announces that Zoo Tycoon™: Complete Collection for Windows has stampeded onto store shelves in North America for an estimated retail price of $29.95 (U.S.). Featuring all the animals from the original Zoo Tycoon and the Dinosaur Digs and Marine Mania expansion packs, Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection also comes with loads of bonus features, including the all-new Endangered Species Theme Pack.

Players' imaginations will run wild as they care for more than 100 land, aquatic and prehistoric animals in the most beautiful and lively zoo imaginable. The Endangered Species Theme Pack features 12 animals on the endangered and/or threatened species list, such as orangutans, whale sharks and Komodo dragons. Zookeepers can tend to these rare animals using more than 40 new objects based on four new themes, and can challenge their inner zoo keeping skills with three new scenarios. A portion of the bonus content is now available to current Zoo Tycoon players who download the Mexican Theme Pack and Mexican wolf at the official Zoo Tycoon website, giving them a glimpse of the smallest and rarest of gray wolves which were nearly hunted to extinction. The Endangered Species Theme Pack, nearly half the content of a complete expansion pack, will be available via download later this fall.

Would-be zookeepers have more than 100 animals and more than 500 building objects at their disposal to create a thriving and healthy zoo. They can set up their own aquatic show, launch an expedition to recover escaped dinosaurs or build a habitat for an endangered species. With access to many specialized staff such as zookeepers, scientists, and marine specialists, Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection lets virtual zookeepers mix and match animals and themes to create and manage the ultimate zoo. Fun for kids and parents alike, Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection offers players the most exciting Zoo Tycoon experience next to actually running a real-life zoo. Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection was developed by Blue Fang Games, the creators of the original Zoo Tycoon as well as Zoo Tycoon: Dinosaur Digs and Zoo Tycoon: Marine Mania. More information about Zoo Tycoon is available at the official Zoo Tycoon website.
