Capcom’s Exoprimal Releases Worldwide, Offering Thrilling Dinosaur Battles on Consoles, PC, and Xbox Game Pass
Capcom, a renowned developer and publisher of video games, has unleashed its revolutionary online team-based action game, Exoprimal, to gamers worldwide. Powered by Capcom’s proprietary RE ENGINE, this brand-new intellectual property thrusts players into an adrenaline-pumping world where soldiers don advanced combat armor to confront hordes of ferocious dinosaurs. Exoprimal is now available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows, PlayStation 5 (PS5), PlayStation 4 (PS4), and PC via Steam, retailing at MSRP $59.99. Additionally, starting today, players can access the game through Xbox Game Pass on console, PC, and Cloud.
A World Threatened: The Rise of Dinosaurs and Humanity’s Hope
Set in 2040, Exoprimal portrays a world plagued by an inexplicable surge of dinosaurs, endangering humanity’s survival. Faced with this dire situation, Aibius Corp., a powerful entity, calls upon their state-of-the-art artificial intelligence, Leviathan. This advanced A.I. possesses the ability to predict dinosaur outbreaks and deploys skilled warriors, known as Exofighters, equipped with cutting-edge Exosuits, to safeguard humanity. In a fateful turn of events, a three-year-old Exofighter patrol unit called the Hammerheads crash-lands on a remote island, where Leviathan enlists them as test subjects in a lethal competition.
Unleashing Leviathan’s Wargames: Dino Survival Mode
Exoprimal’s primary mode, Dino Survival, showcases Leviathan’s high-stakes wargames. In this intense combat test, two squads of five Exofighters engage in a race against time to fulfill diverse objectives while fending off relentless waves of dinosaurs. The missions in Dino Survival evolve based on players’ progression through the game’s narrative. Some matches pit squads against each other in player-versus-player (PvP) battles, while others necessitate cooperative efforts to eliminate formidable adversaries, such as the monstrous Neo T. Rex. Players can also select their preference for matches, whether PvP, player-versus-environment (PvE), or randomized final missions.
The Power of Choice: Customizing Exosuits and Rigs
Exoprimal empowers players with a wide range of choices, allowing them to customize their combat experience. The game offers a diverse arsenal of 10 Exosuits, each possessing unique abilities and categorized into Assault, Tank, and Support classes. These Exosuits play crucial roles in combatting the dinosaur threat and providing support to their teams. To adapt to dynamic situations on the battlefield, Exofighters can switch between Exosuits at any time during battle. Furthermore, players can tailor their playstyle by utilizing Rigs, equipment that grants additional powers to Exosuits, such as enhanced offense, defense, mobility, and healing abilities. Modules further enhance customization options, enabling players to fine-tune their Exosuits’ performance.
Unraveling the Mystery: Progression, Narrative Content, and Unlockables
As players make headway in Dino Survival, they unlock new Exosuits, gear, cosmetic items, and narrative content. The story of the Hammerheads crew unfolds through story-related missions, engaging cutscenes, and intriguing “lost data.” This valuable intel, comprising audio logs, documents, and more, can be pieced together on the Analysis Map, enabling players to solve the mystery behind the wargames and dinosaur outbreaks.
Robust Post-Launch Support: Savage Gauntlet and Beyond
Capcom has committed to providing substantial post-launch updates and features for Exoprimal. The first of these updates introduces the Savage Gauntlet mode on July 28th, 2023. This mode delivers a challenging player-versus-environment (PvE) experience, featuring weekly rotating missions that offer increased replayability for higher rankings and rewards. On August 17th, 2023, Title Update 1 will be released, introducing 10 Alpha variant Exosuits that bring fresh gameplay possibilities to Dino Survival and Savage Gauntlet. Future title updates will include exciting collaborations with Street Fighter 6 and Monster Hunter, Beta variant Exosuits, new enemies, stages, missions, and more.
Deluxe Edition and Survival Pass: Enhanced Experiences and Exclusive Content
In addition to the standard edition, players have the option to acquire the Exoprimal Deluxe Edition digitally, priced at MSRP $69.99. The Deluxe Edition includes the “Head Start Kit” and a limited-time bonus, the “Survival Pass Season 1: Premium Tier.” The Head Start Kit grants access to three exclusive Exosuit skins and early unlock tickets for the Nimbus, Vigilant, and Murasame Exosuits. However, these Exosuits can also be obtained through gameplay in the Standard Edition. The Survival Pass rewards players based on their in-game progress and is divided into free and premium tiers. The Season 1 Premium Tier offers a wealth of content, including 19 additional Exosuit skins, 10 weapon skins, 4 emotes, 3 decals, and more.
Exoprimal invites players to embark on an immersive journey into a dystopian future, where dinosaurs roam the earth and humanity’s survival hangs in the balance. With its groundbreaking gameplay, customization options, and ongoing post-launch support, Capcom’s latest release promises to captivate gamers worldwide and establish itself as a formidable presence in the gaming industry.
