Exoprimal has the greatest plot for any video game. Ever.

There is only one suitable quote for a moment like this: “Shut up and take my money!”

On Wednesday (9 March), PlayStation held a State Of Play event to give players the latest news on upcoming games and updates to existing games.

You can watch the full twenty-minute State Of Play right here:

However, the one project that immediately stood out from the crowd was the brand new title Exoprimal.

The gameplay looks a bit like Anthem, allowing players to take part in a team-based action environment, and it comes from Capcom, the folks behind Resident Evil, Street Fighter, Devil May Cry and Monster Hunter.

However, it is the plot of Exoprimal that just grabs you by the throat and refuses to let go.

The trailer below reveals that the game is set in the not-too-distant future, and a robot appears on screen to present what looks like a weather report.

However, while our bad weather days might result in a lot of rain and wind, in the future, this weather report consists of the location of a large black hole that opens up above a city, and out pours hundreds and hundreds of dinosaurs.

Yes, it literally rains dinosaurs from the sky, and it is up to you to kill them all before they completely take over the city around you.

Thankfully, players are equipped with exo-suits, complete with huge weaponry, massive shields and the ability to take flight and duck and dive all over the dino-ridden future metropolis.

See? We weren’t kidding when we said it was the greatest plot of any video game ever.

Exoprimal will arrive on the PlayStation 5 in 2023.
