Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure your PlayStation console has sufficient storage space, as the high-fidelity assets for animals and environments are data-intensive. Keep your system software updated to the latest version to ensure compatibility with online features like the Franchise mode trading market. Regarding game care, ensure the console is placed in a well-ventilated area, as long-term simulation sessions can generate significant heat. Regularly save your progress across multiple slots to prevent data loss in the event of an unexpected crash, especially when pushing the limits of your zoo's population cap. Use the in-game tutorial scenarios to get comfortable with the controller mapping before attempting complex park layouts.
