Plan your next Primal Carnage: Extinction session

Our independent guide examines how the game's distinct elements interact, offering observations that help players understand trade‑offs without promising hidden advantages. By comparing class abilities, progression routes, and available tools, you can make informed choices that suit your preferred play style.

01 / THE GUIDE

Comparing Dinosaur Roar Timing

Observe how early versus late Roar activation influences enemy positioning. Early roars may disrupt initial assaults, while later roars can finish off fleeing opponents, offering a practical way to gauge optimal timing.

  • Experiment with Roar timing to maximize its impact.
  • Pair a class with complementary human utilities for balanced team composition.

02 / THE GUIDE

Balancing Human Utilities

Match each human utility with a dinosaur threat you expect to face. For instance, gadgets that provide area denial pair well with groups of Spitters, while long‑range weapons complement encounters with distant Tyrants.

  • Choose a class whose utilities match your preferred playstyle.
  • Coordinate gadget usage with teammates to cover dinosaur weaknesses.

Exploring the Level Editor

Create a simple arena using the built‑in editor, then test it in a private match. Comparing the flow of a custom map to a standard map highlights design elements that affect balance.

  • Use the Marketplace to acquire rare cosmetic variations.

Assessing Audio Settings for Comfort
