Capcom announced a new Exoprimal beta during the June Capcom Showcase, featuring new features in the multiplayer game. The beta will run for only a short time – June 16, 2023, through June 18, 2023 – but it includes a new mode and several improvements Capcom made based on feedback from the game’s first beta in March 2023.
One of those is awarding points based on how quickly you finish a mission, rather than on how much combat you engaged in with other players.
The new Exoprimal trailer introduced an Exosuit variant called the Deadeye Alpha, with a slightly different set of attack abilities and a shotgun-style weapon. Capcom said more variants are planned for future seasons, along with other modes, cosmetics, and battle passes.
One new mode is a five-player mission called the Savage Gauntlet that changes weekly and pits you and your team against waves of the toughest dinosaurs. This and other multiplayer modes are meant to keep the game going for long after the dino-hunting campaign mode ends.
As for the campaign, Capcom seems to have gone all-in on a wild sci-fi story, complete with rogue AI, conspiracies, crews of daring mech pilots, and of course, scores upon scores of dinosaurs.
Expoprimal launches for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, and PC via Steam on July 14, 2023.
