A new multiplayer game, Exoprimal, is on the way with Exoprimal giving us all forms of dinosaurs to fight
There were rumors all over about what Capcom could have been cooking up as it comes to dinosaurs and it looks like we now have the announcement for Exoprimal. Not exactly what everyone was thinking it was going to be, but it does fit the idea and give us a new multiplayer title that will pit us all against hordes of dinosaurs that are teleporting into the world of 2040. Given all of that, Exoprimal will still be giving us something to look at and experience on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC in 2023 even if it is not what the rumors were going for. Now we can dive in and see what the game will be bringing to the world to entertain us all just a bit more.
That is the basics for Exoprimal but there will be a bit more, obviously. This will be a 5v5 experience where each team will put on one of three different mech suits to head out and quell the next big rift that is dumping in all forms of dinosaurs out there. Each team will need to try to kill the most of the creatures out there to win the matches of Exoprimal in these mechs. Each of these mechs will specialize in one specific area (Striking, Tanking, Healing) but we will be able to swap between them in the field at the cost of a little bit of safety. Have a look at the basics we have for now and then get ready to head out there and slay as many of these beasts as we can.
Exoprimal — Reveal Trailer
Capcom has revealed Exoprimal. This team-based action game is a new IP set to unleash a prehistoric blast from the past in the near future. Suit up in powered armor to put down dinosaur invasions and save humanity from extinction when the Exofighters deploy for battle on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Steam in 2023.
It’s 2040 and the planet is in crisis. Dinosaurs are appearing from thin air and laying waste to cities across the globe. Threatened by history’s deadliest creatures, the world turns to the powerful Aibius Corporation and its revolutionary technology for help. The company’s next-generation AI, Leviathan, can forecast where dinosaur outbreaks will occur and deploy Exofighters to the area. Armed with state-of-the-art mechanized combat armor known as Exosuits, these warriors represent humanity’s last hope.
Exoprimal pioneers a new multiplayer experience rooted in co-op – but with a competitive edge. In the game’s main mode, Dino Survival, teams fight for every breath against countless dinosaurs while racing to complete missions before rival squads in 5v5 matches. A dynamic mix of objectives keeps players on their guard and ensures each match is different from the last. Exofighters will need to stay on their toes as hunts transition into precious cargo deliveries or desperate last stands against relentless assaults. Opposing teams are even given opportunities to tackle adversaries head-on and impede their progress. While Exoprimal is purely focused on multiplayer, a narrative is interwoven throughout the game. Players can sink their teeth into the world’s rich history and colorful characters by unlocking new story threads and piecing together the mystery behind the dinosaur outbreaks.
Exofighters are always outnumbered and must work together to overcome overwhelming odds. Their Exosuits come in an array of classes, each playing a distinct role in combat. Assault models like the marksman Deadeye and the melee-oriented Zephyr excel at cutting down enemy swarms. Meanwhile, tanks such as the shield-bearing Roadblock and support types like the vital Witchdoctor help keep everyone alive to fight another day. Every model is outfitted with a unique armory and special abilities. Players can even swap between Exosuits on the fly to overcome any situation, no matter how dire.
