Capcom’s Exoprimal is the company’s first full-fledged live-service offering, and it’s definitely taken the job to heart. Notably, Exoprimal‘s Title Update 1 is already available as of August 16, delivering a strong follow-up to the game’s official July 14 launch date. Players now have access to a surprisingly large roster of new goodies, the highlight of it all being the introduction of Alpha-variant exosuits.
Exoprimal is, of course, still in its early days, being a live-service title and all that. Capcom did successfully deliver a content-rich and feature-complete game on day one, however, which doesn’t always happen with games that are supposed to last for years at a time. This means that, even though Exoprimal players have had their hands full since the game’s come out, they will now be fuller still, which is always a good thing!
Exoprimal Title Update 1 Overview
The addition of Alpha-variant exosuits is bound to change up Exoprimal‘s suit tier list once players finally manage to unlock them, though it’s still unclear what the big differences are between Alpha exosuits and their regular, garden-variety alternatives. Capcom promises that Alpha exosuits “allow for different playstyles,” but the option to purchase one is only made available after the default variant reaches level 20. Or, alternatively, if players splurge on the Early Unlock Tickets.
Another Title Update 1 highlight is that Capcom’s now added the “excruciatingly difficult” 5-person PvE boss battle missions to the Savage Gauntlet co-op content rotation. Savage Gauntlet, too, came out shortly after the game launched, adding a new twist to the hectic dino-slaying core of Exoprimal.
On top of these big features, Title Update 1 also introduces:
- New exosuit skins
- New weapon skins
- War Chest drops: new decals, charms, stamps, emotes, emblems and player icon backgrounds
- New gameplay medals and awards
Players can also expect to see some changes to Exoprimal‘s UI, as well as a big list of changes to the exosuit balancing. All the pertinent nitty-gritty can be found on Capcom’s official Exoprimal Title Update 1 announcement page, though it’s worth highlighting that the majority of these tweaks are fairly minor in the grand scheme of things.
