Today, Capcom hosted the Exoprimal Showcase, a special presentation revealing exciting new details about their online team-based action game, Exoprimal. Director Takuro Hiraoka took the stage to provide a glimpse into the future of Exofighters, the brave warriors in the game, as they gear up for the wargames starting on July 14th, 2023. The digital event unveiled forthcoming seasonal updates that promise to bring a wealth of new content to the players, including a new game mode, Alpha and Beta Exosuit variants, crossovers with Monster Hunter and Street Fighter 6, and much more.
Early Look at Seasonal Updates
The Exoprimal Showcase offered players an exclusive sneak peek into the upcoming seasonal updates, ensuring their excitement will reach new heights. The highly-anticipated Season 1 will kick off alongside the game’s launch this Friday, and two weeks later, on July 28th, 2023, players will be introduced to a thrilling new game mode called Savage Gauntlet.
Savage Gauntlet: A Co-op Challenge
Savage Gauntlet presents a cooperative gaming experience where teams of five players tackle intense late-game player-versus-environment (PvE) missions. These challenging missions will rotate on a weekly basis, offering players the opportunity to replay them for higher rankings and greater rewards. It’s a true test of teamwork, strategy, and skill.
Augmented Arsenal: Alpha Exosuit Variants
On August 17th, 2023, Exoprimal will receive its first major title update, marking the beginning of Season 2. This update introduces ten Alpha variant Exosuits to the game’s roster all at once. These unique designs feature completely distinct weapons from their standard counterparts, providing players with fresh gameplay approaches for both Dino Survival and Savage Gauntlet modes.
Collaboration Extravaganza
The developers at Capcom have been hard at work crafting exciting collaborations with other renowned franchises, and players can expect some thrilling content in the upcoming seasons.
Street Fighter 6 Crossover in Season 2
Season 2, set to commence in mid-October 2023, will bring the much-anticipated collaboration with Street Fighter 6 to life. Players can prepare for epic battles, as the ferocity of the Street Fighter universe spills over into Exoprimal. The update will also introduce a new map and Final Mission, along with additional rigs and modules, ensuring an exhilarating gaming experience.
Monster Hunter Series Collaboration in Season 3
In January 2024, Season 3 will mark another significant expansion of the Exoprimal armory. This update will introduce the Beta variant Exosuits, alongside an exciting collaboration with the renowned Monster Hunter series. Players will have the opportunity to face off against the formidable Neo Triceratops, a new and challenging adversary. This collaboration promises to bring the thrilling world of Monster Hunter into the Exoprimal universe, providing an immersive and action-packed experience.
Final Mission Selection
One of the exciting new features highlighted during the Exoprimal Showcase is the “Final Mission Selection” feature for the game’s main mode, Dino Survival. This feature grants players the ability to choose their desired mission type, offering three options: player-versus-player (PvP), player-versus-environment (PvE), and random matches. PvP games pit two rival squads of Exofighters against each other in fierce battles to determine the ultimate victor. PvE missions focus on speed, as teams compete to complete objectives before their opponents. The random option adds an element of surprise and provides adventurous players with a small experience bonus. Players can freely adjust their preference settings and switch between mission types at any time, ensuring a customizable and dynamic gameplay experience.
With the unveiling of the post-launch roadmap, Capcom has demonstrated its commitment to keeping Exoprimal fresh and exciting for players. The addition of Savage Gauntlet, Alpha and Beta Exosuit variants, crossovers with Monster Hunter and Street Fighter 6, and the highly anticipated “Final Mission Selection” feature all promise to enrich the gameplay experience and keep players engaged for months to come. Exoprimal is set to revolutionize online team-based action games, and players are eagerly counting down the days until they can embark on their thrilling Exofighter adventures.
