Exoprimal is the upcoming game from Capcom where you don an exosuit and head off to fight dinos. This dino survival game will have teams of players fighting against one another in different PvE and PvP game modes. Are you ready to take on some of history’s most deadly creatures?

Before you go join the full game, why not try out the open betas? There have been two so far and could even be a third one on the horizon prior to release. Here is everything you need to know about the open betas for Exoprimal prior to the game’s release.

Exoprimal Open Beta dates

The Exoprimal open beta was announced at the Capcom Spotlight in March 2023 and is great news for fans who do not only play the game in its early stages but also help out the developer to iron out any creases. The dates for the Exoprimal open beta are as follows:

  • March 17, 2023 to March 19,2023
  • June 16, 2023 to June 19, 2023

The open beta will be available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows (Microsoft Store), PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Steam (PC).

Those who play the open beta test and answer the survey will obtain a bonus that can be used in the retail version of the game.
A download code usable on the store of the platform indicated in your survey will be sent to the email address registered to your CAPCOM ID at a later date.

How to access the Exoprimal open beta

To access the Exoprimal beta, it’s really as simple as downloading the game from the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, or Steam. This is an open beta, which means it’s open to everyone who’s interested in playing. No need for a code or a giveaway!

For playing the beta, you will unlock a special Aibius Medal charm.

However, to actually play the open beta, you must have linked your CAPCOM ID to your network account on your device, be it PlayStation, Xbox, or PC. Read on to find out how.

How to sign up for Exoprimal open beta

Any open beta requires a lot of maintenance, and there are sometimes certain needs and requirements from the developers that must be met in order to participate. If you’re looking to sign up and participate in the open beta, you must have met these requirements:

Players must be within their region’s age ratings classification for the game’s target age group. Players must actively participate in the open beta test and provide feedback via the survey. Players must have a gaming environment that meets the requirements of the open beta test.

  • Players must be able to connect to the internet via a broadband connection
  • Players must have an Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, or a PC
  • A continuous internet connection is required to play.
  • The Steam client must be installed on your PC in order to play the Steam version of the game.
  • Your chosen hardware must have over 35GB of free space available.

Next, if you haven’t already, you’ll need to also have a CAPCOM ID. Players who have not got one can obtain it by signing up here.

Then, seeing as the game is online-only, you must have a network account corresponding to the device you wish to play the open beta on eg. PSN account.

After this, players must link their CAPCOM ID to their respective network accounts. If you’re looking to link your CAPCOM ID, you can do so with the links down below:

Will there be another open beta test?

Exoprimal had a second open beta test in June. If you are wondering whether there will be another beta test before the release of the game, there are currently no plans for one. Since the game is close to release, there most likely won’t be another beta test prior to the launch of the full game.

What is Exoprimal?

Exoprimal is an online multiplayer game in which players work together to take on waves of dinosaur enemies (apparently being guided by a sinister AI) in giant mech suits (called Exo Suits). It’s explosive, colorful, pretty daft, and looks absolutely great, silly fun. Different Exo Suits effectively act as different classes: with the as yet unnamed tank class having a giant shield that can hold off waves of raptors, ‘Barrage’ being the explosive expert, and ‘Vigilant’ having a sniper-like long-range railgun.

There are various game types that include both PvP and PvE elements. The main game type is Dino Survival, which has different mission modes, including ones where you have to assassinate a specific dinosaur, protect an aircraft whilst it’s taking off from waves of enemies, and some sort of nonsense involving hitting things with a massive hammer.
