Following a fierce backlash from the community, Frontier Developments has clarified that generative AI will not be used for the scientists’ illustrations in Jurassic World Evolution 3. The debate over the use of generative AI in the video game industry continues to rage, and many fans are happy to see developers taking cautious steps in this direction.
Jurassic World Evolution 3, the sequel to Frontier Developments’ popular dinosaur management simulation series, is bringing even more exciting features for fans. The game, which was showcased during Summer Game Fest 2025, will now allow players to take care of dinosaur families. Along with this, major improvements have also been made to the construction tools to create the exhibit of your dreams. While these new features are exciting the community, some gamers were disappointed to find that generative AI was used to create the scientific illustrations, a revelation that sparked controversy online.
It appears that Frontier Developments has taken the community’s outrage seriously. In response to a popular post made on the Steam forums criticizing the use of generative AI in Jurassic World Evolution 3, the developers have announced that they are changing direction. According to their official statement, Frontier has decided to remove the use of generative AI in scientific illustrations within Jurassic World Evolution 3. This decision was also confirmed by them in a recent statement to Game Watcher. Additionally, the game’s Steam page has now been stripped of any mention of the use of generative AI.
Jurassic World Evolution 3 Fans Respond to Frontier Developments’ Decision
The decision to remove the scientific illustrations created by the generative AI has received widespread praise from the community. Many fans on Steam thanked the developers for listening to their feedback and making the necessary changes. It is worth noting that the role of scientists in Jurassic World Evolution 3 will be extremely important in park management, making this decision even more important for many players. However, at the time of writing, it is unclear what kind of artworks will now be used in place of the removed AI-generated illustrations.
While players are curious about what kind of art Frontier Developments will use in place of generative AI in Jurassic World Evolution 3, they now only have a few months left to experience the game for themselves. The developers have confirmed that the game will launch on October 21. Currently, two editions of Jurassic World Evolution 3 are available for pre-order, Standard and Deluxe, with the Deluxe edition adding additional family units, unique scenery items, and other exclusive content.
It is expected that this recent decision by Frontier Developments will help make Jurassic World Evolution 3 a more dedicated and immersive experience for players. It is worth mentioning that in recent times, many other companies have also shared their views on the potential role of generative AI in game development. However, it remains to be seen to what extent generative AI will impact the video game industry in the future.
