Capcom has a couple of dinosaur-focused games in its catalog. You might think of Monster Hunter or even Dino Crisis. However, there’s a brand new dinosaur-focused game currently in development with the Capcom team. Currently, the studio is bringing out a game called Exoprimal, and if you’ve seen the trailers, you know that there is a whole lot of dinosaur killing in this title. Within the game, we’re going to be tossed into a somewhat near future of 2040.
So while we are in a nearby future setting, the main focus of Exoprimal is fending off these hungry dinosaurs and saving humanity. Exoprimal is said to be a multiplayer game, so you and some friends can join together in this player-versus-player-versus environment title. At the moment, we know that the game focuses on Exofighters, a group of warriors that are tasked with fighting off these random dinosaurs that pour out from a rift portal.
With these portals, dinosaurs will flood the area, causing havoc and threatening the lives of the citizens nearby. Players will have a few exosuit armor options that act as a class-based system. Using these exosuits, players can either become more of a tank and provide cover for their teammates or play a support-style character to provide aid within their group. Regardless of the class, the name of the game is to fight off the dinosaurs and complete a series of tasks before the opposing team does. Players can expect an action-packed experience when Exoprimal drops into the marketplace in 2023.
What’s The Story Premise In Exoprimal?
Well, if dinosaurs popping up in a portal to defeat wasn’t enough for you, there is a story premise to Exoprimal. Within the game, portals open up randomly throughout the world, which unleashes hordes of dinosaurs into the world. It’s up to a specialized task force team known as Exofighters to go in and save the day. Fortunately, with advanced AI, there is some indication as to where these portals will open up next.
Ultimately, that gives our Exofighter task force team a chance to head into the area and prepare for an onslaught battle. We know that throughout the game, there are several tasks that players will need to complete. However, to complete these tasks, you’ll be facing against another team. This means not only are you battling several dinosaurs, but you’re racing to finish these designated tasks that pop up before your opposing team.
Unfortunately, if you were hopeful that this Exoprimal game would be connected story-wise with Capcom’s Dino Crisis series, then you’re in for some disappointment. There is no connection to Dino Crisis with this game, so you’re left waiting on that front if Capcom ever does decide to pick the IP back up again. In the meantime, if you haven’t already checked out the latest trailer for Exoprimal, you can do so within the video embedded below. Likewise, you’ll find that Exoprimal will be launching into the marketplace sometime in 2023 for the PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S platforms.
