With the latest update, Exoprimal, Capcom’s dinosaur-fighting action game that isn’t Dino Crisis, will no longer release seasonal content, Capcom announced Friday. This news comes just one year after launch.

However, Exoprimal isn’t done just yet. Not only will the game remain online for now, but older seasons will be put up for sale for the rest of the year. Season 1 will come back after Season 4 ends on July 11, Season 2 will go up in August, and so on until December. Players can also continue to check out weekly campaigns and missions, including double EXP events multiple times a week and Savage Gauntlets. Finally, all game modes will be available, including the story. And if you’re having issues finishing the campaign alone, the developers promise some AI bots will come and help. You can check out the full schedule here.

The Survival Passes offer rewards, while their premium tiers will offer additional items. You can also buy a bundle with all four seasons at a discount, although it’s unclear what the full price will be.

While Exoprimal did decently for Capcom after launch in July 2023 largely thanks to it being on Xbox Game Pass, it failed to pick up players on Steam.

If you’ve ever thought about picking up this team-based action game where you — and I can’t stress this enough — fight dinosaurs in increasingly ridiculous ways, now is the best time. You’ll still have the chance for all the rewards, and best of all, the game is on sale for $20 on Steam until July 11 during the Steam Summer Sale. It’s also available on Xbox Game Pass, and the PlayStation Store and Xbox Store at full price.

All Resident Evil games in order, by release date and chronologically

There are almost no survival horror games that last for more than few entries, let alone ones that have persisted for decades like Resident Evil. This series had humble beginnings as a small horror experience set in a single mansion to explore, solve puzzles, and fight against the clunky tank controls and fixed camera angles. Since then, the series has evolved and grown into one of the most recognizable Capcom IPs there is, with new entries and amazing remakes coming out almost every year.

Currently, the highest-numbered Resident Evil game is 8, aka Village, but you would be wildly off if you thought there were only eight entries to consider when looking to complete the series. Right from the start, Resident Evil has loved expanding its world with a massive cast of characters and new protagonists from game to game. Resident Evil 7 was a soft reboot for the series, but there is still a cannon order to the events surrounding Umbrella, the various zombie viruses, and all our favorite heroes like Chris and Leon.

Kunitsu-Gami devs break down the secret to Capcom’s new success
Soh, Yoshiro, and Villagers prepare for battle in Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess.

The video game industry is in a period of contraction. Companies like Bungie are canceling games and laying off developers so they can home in and focus on one or two big titles. Why invest in smaller, riskier projects when making larger games in well-known franchises will yield greater returns? Capcom, on the other hand, is committed to doing both.

"I believe that the experience with a series or remake is important, but the experience of a new IP is also important," Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Director Shuichi Kawata told me in an email interview following the release of one of Capcom's more experimental new games yet.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is more like Dead Space’s remake than Resident Evil 4’s
Frank talks to Jessica in Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster.

Don't let Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster's name fool you; this is essentially a full-on remake of Capcom's classic zombie game. While the narrative and core gameplay loop are the same, Dead Rising has seen a complete visual overhaul, as well as a few gameplay tweaks to make it more enjoyable to play. It's the same great game you remember, but it now just feels like something that could be released in 2024 rather than 2006. After going hands-on with Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, it's clear that this game is less like the remake treatment Capcom gave Resident Evil 4 last year and more like the one EA gave Dead Space. It's an extremely faithful modern upgrade for a horror classic that still holds up today.
