NEW CREATURES
Argenteryx - Epic
Hybrid Components: Archaeopteryx + Argentavis
What this tiny avian hybrid lacks in size it makes up for in craftiness! DPG members have observed this flyer using pebbles to break the shells of nutritious eggs and large insects, just like the modern Egyptian vulture! Perhaps Argenteryx inherited the trait from its Argentavis ancestor…
- Argenteryx is a Cunning Swarmer.
- Use Argenteryx’ Swap in Distraction and Absorb to outlast Fierce opponents, and its multiple Rampage abilities to deal heavy damage!

Megalotops - Epic
Hybrid Components: Megalonyx and Nasutoceratops
Unlike other giant ground sloths, Megalotops lives alone in deeply wooded areas. Unique species of moss and algae grow in the under-fur of this mysterious creature, which blossoms into beautiful flowers once their seeds reach the forest floor.
Megalotops is a Wildcard Counter-attacker.
Use Megalotops’ Counter, Stun and Camouflage to bewilder opponents, and deal damage with its Strike, Impact and Rampage!

Glyptoceras - Legendary
Hybrid Components: Stegoceras + Glyptodon
Osteoderms like those of the Glyptodon cover the tail of this hybrid. Glyptoceras uses this armoured tail to shake the earth in jousting displays and mark trees at the edge of herd territory!
- Glyptoceras is a Cunning and Resilient Stunner.
- Swap to Glyptoceras’ in battle to trigger its Alert Swap In Stun, use its Cunning Strike and Instant Charge to take out targeted opponents, and deal your knock-out blows with its Impact and Rampage!

 Resilient Impact |

Rinchicyon - Legendary
Hybrid Components: Rinchenia + Amphicyon
Ever heard of a wolf in sheep’s clothing? The tricky predatory Rinchicyon uses its resemblance to its hybrid parent Rinchenia to infiltrate their flocks and prey upon weaker specimens! Fortunately Rinchenia can still outrun this dastardly hybrid!
Rinchicyon is a Cunning and Fierce Hit & Runner.
Use Rinchicyon’s Daring Evasion to increase speed and damage while dodging, deal damage with Strike, Impact and Rampage, and use Collision to trigger a guaranteed Critical hit on Escape!
 Devious Strike |
|---|
 Instant Buff |
 Fierce Impact |

Phorurex- Unique
Hybrid Components: Phorusaura + Dracorex GEN 2
Phorurex literally means “carrier king.” DPG members have taken to nicknaming this armored Phorusaur something simpler: ‘the Gryphon.’ Both titles suit the territorial superhybrid, which carries its armor with it everywhere in the bony scutes around its skull and thick, lustrous feathers!
Phorurex is a Cunning & Fierce Hit & Runner.
Use Phorurex’ Cleansing abilities to avoid your opponent’s debuffs, lock them down with Alert Lockdown, and deal heavy damage with Rampage! Swap out smart with Lethal Rampage and Run!
 Daring Strike |
|---|
 Critical Sidestep |
 Stunning Obstruction |

 Alert Rending Lockdown |
Indotaurus - Unique
Hybrid Components: Carnotaurus + Indominus rex GEN 2
The fierce Indotaurus is a fusion of Carnotaurus and Indominus rex, two predators who have hunted near the top of the Isla Nublar food chain! Could there be a new Isla Nublar alpha in our midst?
Indotaurus is a Fierce, stealthy creature!
Use Indotaurus multiple dodge abilities to avoid taking damage, and some of your own every time it survives an attack. Indotaurus’ Cleansing Rampage will give you the edge against vulnerability inducing creatures while also dealing damage!
 Fierce Strike |
|---|
 Intimidating Impact |
 Cleansing Rampage |
  Revenge Taunting Cloak |
 Pesky Alert |
 Greater Rending Counter Attack |
Andrewtops - Unique
Hybrid Components: Andrewtodon + Arctops
Andrewtops has a unique skill among the creatures of Jurassic World. Like the modern Argentinian Tegu, this hybrid can raise it’s own body temperature, becoming a temporarily warm-blooded reptile! DPG specialists believe this capability may come from its mammalian ancestry.
Andrewtops is a Wildcard Jack of all Trades.
Swap to Andrewtops to trigger its Lockdown. Stay ahead of your opponents with Counter Vulnerability and Cleansing effects, then take them out with its Impact and Rampage!

WHAT'S IMPROVED
Drone Targeting Improvements
Make each dart count! The red dot at the center of your Drone crosshair has increased in size on all Drone modes in order to help you aim with more accuracy!
VIP Communication Improvements
Jurassic Alive is better as a VIP! We’ve improved communication around VIP rewards with a few changes to the ‘Become a VIP’ Pop-up. Now, this pop-up has more information on increased rewards available in the Daily Battle Incubator. The Daily Battle Incubator will also now have a VIP info button next to it for all players!
CREATURE UPDATES
As more Apex creatures find their way into Jurassic World Alive, their stats have to be adjusted to make sure they balance well against each other. Our analysis has shown Ceramagnus and Hadros lux have been over-dominant within the Arenas and among other Apex creatures. Mortem rex, on the other hand, has been slightly underperforming. We’re therefore adjusting each of these creatures accordingly.
Ceramagnus
Attributes:
- Attack: 1500 to 1300
- Speed: 114 to 113
- Armor: 30% to 25%
- Critical Chance: 20% to 10%
Hadros lux
Abilities:
- Resilient Rampage becomes Decelerating Impact
Attributes:
- Attack: 1500 to 1350
Mortem rex
Resistances:
- Stun Resistance: 50% to 75%
- Vulnerability Resistance: 0% to 100%
Testacornibus
Prior updates to Testacornibus caused it to become imbalanced and shoot up the Arena rankings too quickly. We have reduced some of this creature’s resistances and tweaked its ability kit to allow it to work better in the overall meta.
Abilities:
- Swap In Heal removed
Resistances:
- Stun Resistance: 100% to 67%
- Swap Out Prevention Resistance: 100% to 33%
