Suit up in Exoprimal this summer
The Capcom Spotlight brought a bounty of big news for the upcoming online team-based action game, Exoprimal. We’re happy to share that Exoprimal is set to launch on PS5 and PS4 on July 14, with pre-orders available starting today!
First revealed exactly one year ago in the March 2022 State of Play, Exoprimal is an all-new game from Capcom that puts players in the role of an Exofighter working for the Aibius Corporation. Players pilot cutting-edge Exosuits and work together to fight back hordes of history’s most ferocious beasts – dinosaurs.
Today’s trailer showed our full roster of ten Exosuits in action, plus a glimpse at more of the conflict that awaits the Hammerheads – the squad you’ll be joining. As Ace, you’ll rub elbows with your colorful crewmates – Alders, Majesty, Sandy the android, and chief Lorenzo, leader of the Hammerheads – as you work together to unravel the time-bending mystery behind Bikitoa Island, the Hammerheads and Leviathan’s never-ending wargames.
We also shared details on the Survival Pass, which rewards players for their in-game progress and features both free and premium tiers. Survival Pass Season 1: Premium Tier will allow you to unlock even more fun cosmetic items, including 19 additional Exosuit skins, 10 weapons skins, 4 emotes, and more.
Can’t wait to pilot an Exosuit? You won’t have to wait long because the Exoprimal Open Beta Test is set for March 16 to March 19 (PDT)*! The Open Beta Test will include 10 playable Exosuits, allowing you to get a feel for how each one holds up against hordes of dinosaurs – and an opposing squad of players – in the game’s main mode, Dino Survival. The Open Beta Test will also feature cross-platform matchmaking, just like the full game.**
Play in the Open Beta Test and complete a survey after playing to receive an Aibius Medal charm in the full game.
*Be sure to check the official website for the Open Beta Test dates and times in your region. **A CAPCOM ID is required for both the Open Beta Test and the full game.
