Stealth and exploration would be necessary to get past certain areas where weapons would be ineffective or in low supply. It was planned as a survival and first-person shooter game with puzzle-solving elements. Unlike the original game, Primal Carnage: Genesis would only feature a single-player mode. Gameplay would differ significantly compared to Primal Carnage, which plays as an asymmetrical multiplayer game. Environmental changes, such as broken dinosaur fencing, would convey hints about the storyline, as would basic dialogue spoken by non-playable characters. Rather than cinematic cutscenes, the storyline would gradually unfold through minimal information presented to the player, who would be left to deduce what is happening. The player would take on the role of an unnamed staff member who travels to the island and later witnesses its descent into chaos as the dinosaurs escape. The prequel would be story-driven and would focus on the island's genetically engineered dinosaurs, including their creation and subsequent escape. Primal Carnage: Genesis would serve as a prequel to Primal Carnage, taking place on an island featured in the original game.
PRIMAL CARNAGE XBOX 360 UPDATE
Circle 5 Studios subsequently took over the series and instead released Primal Carnage: Extinction, an update and sequel to the original game, in 2015. However, development was put on hold around September 2013, due to disagreements within Lukewarm Media about the project's large scope and the direction of the Primal Carnage series. The game was developed using Unreal Engine 4, and the first episode was scheduled for release in November 2013. It would be set on an island featured in the original game, and would explain the creation and subsequent escape of the island's genetically engineered dinosaurs. Unlike the original game, Primal Carnage: Genesis would be a story-driven, single-player game divided into four episodes. It was announced in March 2013 by developer Lukewarm Media, as a prequel to their 2012 asymmetrical multiplayer game Primal Carnage. Primal Carnage: Genesis was a survival and first-person shooter game planned for the PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows.
