Sorry, Exoprimal fans, but Capcom has announced that the dinosaur shooter will no longer receive any updates after the game’s current season ends.
Remember Exoprimal? Probably not, but now that I’ve reminded you, it doesn’t really matter, as it’s coming to an end just a year after the game was first released. Don’t worry, the game isn’t offline yet, but as Capcom confirmed earlier this week, once Season 4 ends on July 11th next week, the new update will be over. The post reads: “Thank you for playing Exoprimal. With the release of Update 4, all planned seasonal content for Exoprimal has been completed. Season 4 will end on July 11th and Season 1 will return. From there, a new season will begin on the first of each month. Additionally, the Season 1-3 Pass will be available again. This will allow players to earn items from all seasons.”

The post also comes with a short timeline showing when each season will be open, with the aforementioned Season 1 starting this month, Season 2 in August, Season 3 in September, Season 4 in October, then Season 1 again in November, and so on. The post doesn’t mention how long each season will last, but as with most live service games, you can probably predict that the season will end at some point. Capcom has also provided a timeline for certain events and limited-time activities, which you can check out here.
You don’t have to worry about anything being cut, either, as Capcom explains that “all game modes will remain playable. This includes the main Dino Survival mode, as well as end-game content such as Savage Gauntlet and Time Loop Rebellion.” Interestingly, the post also states that if “you play the game solo or with just a few other players, bots (AI-controlled Exofighters) will still be added so that you can fully enjoy the story of Hammerheads and reach the ending,” so hopefully something similar will be implemented when the game’s servers inevitably shut down.
Exoprimal was launched almost exactly one year ago, and Connor gave it a positive review, although at the time he quite rightly questioned whether it would work in the long term.
