Planet Zoo has been named the best PC debut in the history of the British developer.

Frontier Developments boasts of their game sales. In the report summarizing the current fiscal year (ending on May 31) for the London Stock Exchange, the last four projects of the company were mentioned, which have contributed significantly to its excellent financial results. The latest of these productions - Planet Zoo released in November - has sold a million copies in less than six months. It is thus the best PC debut in the history of Frontier Developments.

Other items in the catalogue of the British studio also did not bring it any shame either. In April, sales of Elite: Dangerous exceeded 3.5 million copies, and even earlier, further milestones were reached by Jurassic World: Evolution and Planet Coaster (3 and 2.5 million copies sold respectively). The developers emphasize that the popularity of the game was influenced, among others, by the situation in the world related to the coronavirus pandemic and the forced stay of people in their homes. They hope, however, that players beginning their acquaintance with Frontier Developments in this difficult period will remain with studio's game even after the situation has normalized.
