Capcom's EXOPRIMAL to Release July 14, 2023 - Insider Gaming

Insider Gaming sources have revealed prior to today's Capcom Spotlight that the upcoming Exoprimal title will release on July 14, 2023.

insider-gaming.com

Exoprimal takes place in the year 2040, when a sudden outbreak of dinosaurs has engulfed the globe in a crisis that threatens humanity’s very existence. In response to the outbreak, players will take the role of exofighters and fight the dinosaurs in Aibius exo-suits. The player takes the exofighter aptitude test and joins the ranks of Aibius’s heroic pilots in their fight to stave off the extinction of the human race.

The producer of the Dino Crises series, Hiroyuki Kobayashi is credited as the producer of exoprimal, but it's been confirmed that it’s not related to the Dino Crisis series.

Exoprimal will release July 14, 2023, on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

Interesting game, but I'm not paying full price.

 

[Schmendrick]

Every time I see this game I´ve forgotten all about it a mere 10 minutes later.

 

[Umbasaborne]

I would care if it wasnt a live game

 

[anthony2690]

Capcom a month after release.

We have concluded our fan base isn't interested in dinosaurs and decided to cancel Dino Crises remake

 

[adamsapple]

edit: Oh shit I thought this was about Pragmata

 

[Tomi]

Who gonna buy this lol

This is babylon's fall 2

 

[Punished Miku]

I'd watch a TV show with dinosaurs raining from the sky. HBO should pick it up.

 

[John Bilbo]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this a day one Gamepass game?

 

[Punished Miku]

I never heard that. Guess we'll see.

 

[Fbh]

The PVP aspect still kills my interest in this.

Never heard of that, maybe you're misremembering John, unless of course MS pulls a last minute move like they did with Outriders...

Anyway, if this doesn't release as a complete clusterfuck (i.e : borked servers , low player count, low on content, wrong price/MSRP etc like say, Anthem) I think that just by word of mouth and goodwill since this is Capcom were talking about (Mohun) it'll probably manage to do okay-ish especially in Japan, plus, this is a smaller project for them and have probably low-ish expectations in place already, guess we'll have to wait and see.

 

[Evolved1]

Yep.

 

[Alan Silvestro]

This is the Suicide Squad of Capcom.

 

[The_hunter]

Gaas? If so, no.

 

[Draugoth]

I'm 100% convinced that this started as a Dino Crysis reboot but some capcom executives decided to turn it into a GaaS instead.

 

[adamsapple]

This is the Suicide Squad of Capcom.

This looks a hell of a lot more interesting and fun than Suicide Shart.

 

[Naked Lunch]

If they are going to abandon Lost Planet - this looks like the closest we are going to get out of Capcom.
Looks right in the Lost Planet 2 wheelhouse.
Im optimistic about it.

 

[ANDS]

I'm fine with how this looks. I didn't think the PVP gameplay video they showed awhile back looked too terrible (I'm not sure how it plays in practice); would definitely much rather it be co-op mecha dino-shooter, but the PVP looked mostly PVE until the end anyway, and still a healthy dose of PVPVE unless you were falling behind and needed to do more P than E.

With a BETA there's an easy way to figure out if this is going to be for you.

 

[Captain Toad]

GaaS or "live-service" is the new "mobile". Once I hear those words, I stop giving a shit.

 

[Vasto]

 

[Barakov]

That's one way to kill interest in your dinosaurs raining down from the sky game. I check out the beta but this kills a lot of my hype.

I just want to know if there even is a proper story component to this.

 

[Pedro Motta]

I’ll play it for 2 hours and never pick it up again, leave it on the SSD until I delete it to make space for another game I’ll play for 2 hours and then drop it.

 

[8BiTw0LF]

Third party Game Pass day one title, so a meta around 65 prediction is not too far fetched.

 

[remember_spinal]

This game didn’t really stand a chance as a full price release

 

[Kacho]

Oh boy another GAAS. Can’t wait!!!!

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

what if success?

 

[remember_spinal]

what if success?

 

[LostInTime]

Disappointed in this one alittle after seeing that new trailer. I don't understand why they couldn't just put some Dino Crisis characters in it? It probably would sell better.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Interesting game, but I'm not paying full price.

This, so much. After Anthem's failure (which I didn't try either) people should be extra vigilant.

So every game were not looking forward to gets compared to ANTHEM? The two have nothing in common beyond robots you control. Why not compare it to BattleTech or ArmoredCore - has about as much in common as anything else.

Totes.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Looks good for a 2007 looking game.

 

[shaddam]

2023's Anthem

 

[YukiOnna]

I'm not getting the Anthem comparisons. What does EA have to do with Capcom?

 

[nbkicker]

Not intrested at all in online multiplayer or coop games, if this had been single player game would have been intrested as it stands a hard pass

 

[John Bilbo]

Gonna check it out with mates.

 

[bluecowboys]

Get game pass.

Sorry I was a day early. My time machine has been acting up.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

Hehehe, either you were right from the beginning John or, MS did indeed pull a day1 like they did with Outriders !

Cheers brother

 

[Keihart]

i was interested in the game but its releasing at full price with a season pass that's more like a battle pass....
Way to send it to die Capcom, chill a little, at least give the game a chance to build a player base.

 

[Alebrije]

This game will bomb...Capcom killed dinosaurs again...

 

[DemonGamerTTT]

Who the was the dumb fuck that greenlighted a game here you have Ubber high tech exo armor to figh fucking dinossaours?

What a wasted potential...This shit just looks like one of the hundreds kids games we have already....

I thought you like Horizion.

 

[Ezekiel_]

It just seems weird to me that they sell it full price, and also will sell a 'Survival Pass' (AKA Battle Pass).

Just make it free to play if you're going to try to monetize the fuck out of it.

 

[M.W.]

Game is live using NZ trick on Xbox and PC.

Game is on Game Pass as well.

 

[fart town usa]

The PVP aspect still kills my interest in this.

Same. I played the beta and it was fine but I feel like the PvP aspect will ruin the game, much like REsistance.

I'm by no means a PvP expert but Capcom seems bad with balancing and then when it's exploited, the game just feels broken.

Capcom changed it from the beta, you can choose PvE or PvP, no mandatory PvPvE it seems.

Guess I'll try it tonight.

I believe you can play it focused on just PvE.

Capcom ID ... LOL.
