help Primal Carnage FAQ
How does the human-versus-dinosaur gameplay work in Primal Carnage?
Humans play a first-person shooter with firearms and tools, while the dinosaur team attacks from a third-person view using species-specific abilities. That asymmetry is the central mechanic of the 2012 game by Lukewarm Media.
How many classes are playable in the original Primal Carnage?
The original Steam listing names five playable dinosaur classes and five human classes. Each side has different movement, attacks, and team roles rather than mirrored weapons ([Steam listing](https://store.steampowered.com/app/215470/primal_carnage/)).
What is Get to the Chopper mode in Primal Carnage?
It is an escape mode in which the human team fights through dinosaurs to reach an extraction helicopter. The original game also lists 9 maps, so the mode is built around replayable online matches rather than a story campaign.
Was Primal Carnage followed by a sequel?
Yes, Circle 5 Publishing followed the 2012 PC game with Primal Carnage: Extinction in 2015. Extinction expanded the formula with additional dinosaurs, modes, maps, and Steam Workshop support, and it was also released for PS4 ([PlayStation announcement](https://blog.playstation.com/2015/10/02/primal-carnage-extinction-comes-to-ps4-on-october-20th/)).
