Although it’s not yet known whether Exoprimal is set in the same universe as the Dino Crisis games, Hiroyuki Kobayashi – who was co-designer on the first Dino Crisis and produced Dino Crisis 2 and 3 – has confirmed that he’s working on the game.
Kobayashi recently tweeted that he was “deeply involved” in a new title, then proceeded to list all the series he’d worked on in the past, includingResident Evil, Dino Crisis, Devil May Cry and Dragon’s Dogma.
At the bottom of the list is Exoprimal, suggesting that Kobayashi is involved in its development.
