New bosses, new map, new Exoskeleton variants, new skins and many other elements… The collaboration between Exoprimal and Monster Hunter begins this January 18 on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows, Xbox Game Pass for console, PC and Cloud, and on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC (Steam).
This Thursday, Capcom's online game pitting players equipped with exoskeletons against hordes of dinosaurs will offer its biggest content update to date. It will include various additions directly from the Monster Hunter saga, one of the publisher's true spearheads in the world.
EXOPRIMAL X MONSTER HUNTER COLLABORATION
This week, monster tracks will begin to appear in Jurassic Survival games. After collecting a certain number of traces, players will trigger a special Monster Hunter mission. In this scenario, the Exofighters will face Rathalos, the iconic fire-breathing wyvern known as the "King of the Skies" as well as hordes of Velociprey in a co-op boss fight with a 10-player hunting party1.
Exofighters can don Murasame's Rathalos armor, Skywave's Kirin armor, Barrage's Nergigante armor, and Roadblock's Rajang armor. These cosmetic sets also include a variety of Monster Hunter-themed emotes, charms, decals, and Communication Wheel stamps.
NEO TRICERATOPS BOSS FIGHT
The Rathalos isn't the only boss fight to make an appearance in Exoprimal Season 3. A Neo Triceratops is also summoned to the wargames for an exciting new 10-player co-op battle! This massive creature has grown and mutated to gain supernatural strength. She can strike her enemies from a distance by throwing spikes and has the power to enlarge her horns when she charges in melee. The Exocombatants will have to work together within a respawn limit to defeat this formidable new opponent.
NEW EXOSKELETON BETA VARIANTS
Exofighters will also have a collection of new Beta variants of Exoskeletons to equip in Season 3. These Beta variants each have unique weapons and playstyles that set them apart from the standard models and Alpha variants.
- Deadeye Beta: Laser Machine Gun – This model is equipped with a powerful laser machine gun whose energy recharges automatically as long as it does not overheat.
- Beta Dam: Breath of Fire – This variant's flamethrower annihilates ranged enemies in a devastating inferno.
- Roadblock Beta: Counter Shield – This suit's shield absorbs damage and releases it in the form of a powerful ranged counterattack.
- Skywave Beta: Lifeline – Healing allies allows this suit to gain energy which can be used to form protective barriers.
A range of new Tools and Mods will also be available, offering even more possibilities for customization in combat.
NEW CARD
The Jungle is a new battlefield for combat simulations. This tropical forest located in the heart of the island of Bikitoa has dense vegetation. Exo-combatants are encouraged to use equipment suitable for close combat and medium-range combat. Data shows that jumping over obstacles to launch surprise attacks on unsuspecting enemies is more than effective!
