Primal Carnage

On a remote island overwhelmed by dinosaurs, players join either armed human mercenaries trying to reclaim facilities and secure objectives or the prehistoric predators opposing them. The online team shooter pairs five human classes, each with different weapons and utilities, against five dinosaur types with distinct abilities. Humans fight from a first-person perspective, while dinosaurs play from a third-person perspective. Matches take place across nine large maps. In the “Get to the Chopper” escape mode, humans push through dinosaur attacks to reach their only way off the island; achievements, unlockables, and cosmetic content are also included.

On an overrun island, human mercenaries and playable dinosaurs battle in class-based team matches and a human escape mode.
