- Dev Blog #36 – Vehicles and new species - 13 April 2026
Greetings dinosaur hunters! Work is progressing on several features and additions that will shape both near-term updates and longer-term development of Prehistoric Hunt. In this blog, we’re taking a look at vehicles and a set of new species planned for the new map. Thanks again everyone for your continued support! And check out the dev blog video below!
