Exoprimal, an action-packed third-person shooter title developed by Capcom, immerses players in a thrilling battle against relentless dinosaurs and their formidable counterparts, the Neosaurs. Engaging in intense PvP and PvE multiplayer gameplay, players form teams with fellow adventurers, utilizing a range of Exosuits that can be switched based on team dynamics. The game currently offers ten distinct suits, each possessing a unique play style and role, accompanied by an exclusive Alpha Variant that introduces modified weaponry.
How to Get the Alpha Variants in Exoprimal
Alpha Variants will be accessible starting from August 17, 2023, coinciding with the commencement of Season 1. Players will be relieved to know that there is no need to purchase a season pass or undertake any additional tasks in order to obtain these variations. The Alpha Variants will be automatically available as soon as the update for Season 1 is ready for play. Moreover, Exoprimal players will have the delightful opportunity to enjoy these Alpha versions along with all the suits they have already unlocked. However, it should be noted that this does not encompass the unlockable Exosuits such as the Nimbus, which can only be accessed upon reaching the required level.
What Do the Alpha Variants Do in Exoprimal?
Alpha Deadeye Exosuit
The Exoprimal introduces the Alpha Variants, which not only modify the appearance but also enhance the overall experience of the various Exosuit types. Players will have access to unique weapons, altering the way each support, assault, and tank suit handles in combat. Get a sneak peek of what to expect from these suits when August rolls around.
The original Deadeye Exosuit in Exoprimal carries a low-recoil assault rifle, but the Alpha Variant of the Deadeye will have a shotgun with a short-range spread.
Alpha Zephyr Exosuit
Alpha Barrage Exosuit
The Zephyr, an Exosuit designed for close combat, features minimal armor. As a result, players must rely on their agility to evade enemy strikes. Moreover, the Alpha Zephyr suit integrates a chakram into its arsenal, granting players a ranged attack option.
The Barrage suit focuses on utilizing grenades and explosives to detonate bombs at close or mid-range. In the upcoming season 1 of Exoprimal's Road Map, players will receive an upgraded version of this suit - the Alpha version, which includes a long-distance rocket launcher as a replacement.
Alpha Nimbus Exosuit
The Nimbus is a suit that can be unlocked in Exoprimal at player level 10.
Alpha Skywave Exosuit
The Alpha Skywave, while still functioning as a support unit, diverges from its healing-centric counterpart. In addition to its healing capabilities, this iteration incorporates a lightning attack that can immobilize foes, similar to the original Witchdocter suit. Furthermore, it introduces a potent new ability, unleashing intense lightning strikes on individual targets.
Alpha Witchdoctor Exosuit
The Witchdocter's base suit emits beams that not only inflict damage and freeze enemies, but also grant a significant boost to allies. However, with the Alpha variant, players have the ability to modify these beams, enabling them to concentrate their attack or healing powers on a specific target, thereby augmenting their effectiveness.
Alpha Krieger Exosuit
In addition to the automatic machine gun for swiftly eliminating adversaries, the upgraded Alpha Krieger exosuit incorporates a reloadable shotgun that boasts a broad dispersion for hitting a larger target area and the option to release tightly concentrated blasts of firepower.
Alpha Murasame Exosuit
Alpha Roadblock Exosuit
The Alpha Murasame suit enhances the suit's already formidable samurai sword with the ability to unleash frost power. According to Capcom, this upgraded suit also has an additional feature: defensive maneuvers transform into energy that can be released as ground-based waves of ice. These icy waves have the capability to immobilize enemies, creating opportunities for devastating attacks.
The tank suit, true to its name, offers unparalleled protection. It boasts remarkable durability that ensures no harm permeates its formidable exterior. The Alpha variation of this suit empowers the Roadblock to strategically deploy energy shields throughout the battleground.
Alpha Vigilant Exosuit
The Vigilant is the third unlockable suit, offering a powerful tank suit with an abundance of firepower. Equipped with a sniper rifle, this suit excels at long-range attacks. Alternatively, players can opt for the Alpha version, which presents a semi-automatic rifle that has a random chance to land critical hits.
Exoprimal is currently accessible for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S/X.
