Who it's for

Miniature-hunting fans and dedicated groups who want a long, atmospheric monster-hunting campaign with real consequences.

Not for you if…

About this game

Primal: The Awakening drops you into a wilderness that has not been tamed and probably never will be, hunting monstrous creatures across a full campaign of connected missions. Every quest you choose branches the story, unlocks crafting options and rare hunts, and slowly reveals what these monsters actually are and why they're here. Between hunts you gear up with genuinely useful crafted items, and the consequences of past missions follow you into the next one. Prefer a single evening instead of a campaign? Hunt mode gives you standalone encounters with none of the long-term commitment. Heavy, atmospheric and built for miniature-hunting fans.
