Exoprimal Reviews
We had fun with Exoprimal, but admittedly the first hours were not easy.

Exoprimal is an average title that will entertain but frustrate you at times. Exosuits are the best thing the game has to offer, but the poor implementation of playing as dinosaurs spoils the fun.

Exoprimal is a fun game but feels like it falls short due to how it can fail to open up until you invest a significant amount of time in the game. The story is worth checking out but don’t expect to be sucked into the gameplay loop of fighting dinosaurs for a long period of time.
As a straight-up shooter, Exoprimal comes with competent mechanics and polish, even if a feeling of sameness ends up as the predominant factor after a few hours of play. There’s something here to spark interest among the most competitive players, but it doesn’t feel like Exoprimal is a multiplayer game made for the ages, same as the creatures that were brought from the past to serve as the enemies in here.
Exoprimal is, as it stands, a dreadfully unfinished experience that I couldn't realistically recommend to anyone.
Exoprimal is a very promising concept that is limited by its lack of gameplay variety, lackluster release content, and monetization choices.
A decent gift for Game Pass subscribers, but not the best purchase at full price. Exoprimal is Capcom's most successful attempt at entering the multiplayer co-op entertainment market, but the length of time it takes to develop its full potential will easily scare off potential newcomers.

Exoprimal seemed like it would be a fresh, exciting new experience at first look, but unfortunately only manages to pull comparisons to other poorly executed games while making me wish I was playing something else at every turn.
Exoprimal makes a fantastic first impression as you enter the world of futuristic dinosaur combat. You have an intriguing mystery, cool exosuits, and several varieties of dinosaurs to fight. Unfortunately, the gameplay quickly becomes stale as you realise its repetitive nature. If you want to enjoy the mystery, you must play a large number of games. Only the most hardcore PvP players will want to continue, as others may tire of the lack of variety. As interesting as the concept is, Exoprimal doesn't take full advantage of the premise, instead providing a decent multiplayer experience for a few hours.
Exoprimal keeps its cards close, saving some of its best moments for later.
Take out your trusty armored umbrellas because the forecast is cloudy with the chance of...dinosaurs?! To elaborate, this is a short abstract of the absurdly sounding Exoprimal. A multiplayer PvE/PvP title with not only handful of innovative game design instances and captivating story that requires activation of the gray brain matter, but also thousands of angry reptiles, who are more than ready to eat off your limbs and head. With time traveling, mischievous AI and many real-world parallels, this is truly a blast from the past! (pun intended)

Exoprimal’s filled with intense moments as you experience its story, with exciting gameplay and impressive moments you’ll grin through.
Exoprimal may offer engaging and sometimes exciting combat and the core gameplay mechanics are what you'd expect from a shooter, but it falls into a loop of repeating itself way too early and for an online experience, that's the biggest issue. It has the potential to become much bigger and better than what it is right now, but unless those updates start rolling, I don't recommend paying the full price just for potential.

Exoprimal is a difficult game to recommend due to its distinct propositions regarding gameplay and overall experience. The action-focused gameplay is arguably the best part of the experience, delivering adrenaline-fuelled matches and exciting situations that underscore the importance of teamwork. Adding new content throughout the year will determine whether Capcom gets it right again in 2023.

Taking out dinosaurs as futuristic warfighters is both fun and ridiculous. Come for the gameplay but don't worry yourself with the narrative.
Capcom is trying to have its cake and eat it, too, with Exoprimal by using its story to lure more general fans while hoping the loop keeps hardcore multiplayer fans for the long haul. I’m not sure that will work; I have little motivation to return now that I’ve seen credits. But I had a fun time while it lasted. Exoprimal’s creative subversion of expectations impressed me in more ways than one, and its approach to telling a robust narrative within a multiplayer framework is an example I hope other titles study. I just hope it’s enough to keep the game from going extinct.
Exoprimal is a game that may not immediately hook into you depending on your expectations. I was initially disappointed in the PvPvE focus that is presented at first, but after just a couple of hours, was hooked into it. The game does manage to deliver a very flawed, but still fun shooter experience. This certainly won’t be for everyone, but despite its fair share of issues, it’s one of my favorite go-to multiplayer experiences right now.
Exoprimal is fun in short doses, and there's absolutely a foundation to build on here. Like many live service games, this could be something very special in a few months.
Exoprimal turned out to be something unexpected for me because I couldn't imagine enjoying playing it so much, because when it comes to the gameplay, it manages to wear that electrifying and frenetic tone that I love so much at Capcom. However, the design that forces you to repeat the same mode (with few maps) to progress the narrative and get rewards such as cosmetics or modules, will test players' patience too much. Despite the electricity of an arcade-tone Capcom-leaning Overwatch-influenced experience, the PvE gameplay with final PvP stage makes Exoprimal a lot of fun and even different, but the design and structure around the gameplay leaves me totally confused.
