Capcom is aware of what the individuals need: Mecha Ryu punching a large dino
On: June 9, 2023
Capcom has introduced the primary of what is clearly meant as an extended collection of collaborations between its titles of the second, and it is kicking issues off with Road Fighter 6 and ExoPrimal. Eschewing any notion of getting fancy about these things, the brief trailer will get right into it: Particularly, an exosuit model of Ryu punching and fireballing massive dinosaurs.
We additionally get some footage of a daft trying Guile exosuit diving down into the jungle, whereupon he’ll presumably turtle within the nook and kick dinos within the shins.
The collaboration exhibits footage from each video games, whereas Capcom’s brief official blurb says “from the Combating Grounds to the struggle video games, Exoprimal x Road Fighter 6 customizations have been licensed for deployment in Fall 2023”. It appears like ExoPrimal will get numerous Road Fighter-themed exo fits that make the varied characters look a bit like Iron Man (Mecha Akuma? Sure please.) Considerably inevitably, maybe, the shots of ExoPrimal’s smooth fits in Road Fighter 6’s extra cartoonish and vibrant world feels rather less thrilling.
However then that is why from Capcom’s perspective this clearly is sensible. Road Fighter is one in every of its longest-running and most profitable manufacturers, which has simply obtained a significant new entry, whereas ExoPrimal is its first main authentic game in a very long time. To me ExoPrimal appears just like the continuation Dino Disaster was in any other case by no means going to get, and personally am fairly down with the concept of a load of dinaosaurs coming out of a portal in entrance of me, sporting a mech go well with with extra ordnance than the SAS.
Road Fighter 6 launched final week to extremely optimistic critiques and, outdoors of grumbles about among the microtransactions, has already bought 1 million (although Capcom needs 10 million!) ExoPrimal is out subsequent week on 14 July. The collaboration between the video games solely has the nebulous date of fall this 12 months, however hey: We get to punch dinosaurs as Ryu.
