Planet Zoo 2 Guide

Planet Zoo 2's deepest systems live outside the tutorial. Franchise mode runs a persistent online economy of shared Conservation Credits, a player-driven animal market and a five-tier accreditation ladder that gates the full 136-species roster — and it is easy to burn your starting 300 credits on the wrong animals when the full animal list is not yet visible to you. Our Franchise mode guide walks through your first zoo, the launch-week money trick and the fastest route to Tier 5.

Start there before touching Sandbox: once you understand how credits, cash and accreditation interact, every other system in the game — habitats, trading, Wildlife Reserves — becomes much easier to read.
