Capcom Will Add Dino Crisis To Exoprimal If They Get Enough Fan Demand

Exoprimal’s producer has expressed interest in adding Dino Crisis content to the multiplayer shooter.

In an interview with Siliconera, director Takuro Hiraoka was asked about what content he would like to add to the game, after they launched with the Street Fighter collaboration.

Curiously, Hiraoka did not offer up the game everyone says they wanted Exoprimal to be. Instead, he said:

“I think it would be a lot of fun to have a collaboration with the Mega Man series, which I’ve been playing since my younger days. The idea of going head-to-head with monsters from the fantasy world of the Dragon’s Dogma series personally excites me as well.

Having a collaboration with the Monster Hunter series, which we announced recently, will be pretty awesome as well!”

Now, to be fair to Mr Hiraoka, there’s nothing wrong with these two franchises. The idea behind Exoprimal’s big villain, Leviathan, is that it can draw out minions from anywhere and any time.

So, giving him those kinds of abilities, it’s reasonable in the premise of the game that it can bring over the Robot Masters, or maybe even Copy X and a bunch of Reploids. There is also some real potential in having the player play as Rock himself, or other playable characters in the lore, such as Proto Man, Bass, X, etc.

Dragon’s Dogma is a somewhat unappreciated franchise in its own time, and is only now coming into its own. While it could have been the premier fantasy franchise that Dark Souls turned out to be, Capcom was able to fully realize its potential with the rerelease branded Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen.

Now, Dragon’s Dogma’s bestiary is filled with all manner of classic Western fantasy monsters. In terms of a multiplayer PvPvE shooter, it would be a unique challenge to the
