The easter update for Primal Carnage: Extinction is now available. It's a bumper event featuring our own version of an easter egg hunt, Oviraptors galore and a new addition to CTE mode! Check it out...
EGGCELLENT REWARDS TO BE UNCOVERED
We're running a SCAVENGER HUNT during the easter event! Look hard enough and you will find certain clues hidden around the maps. Once deciphered, these reveal a fragment of a special code. When a code is completed, players can enter it on the in-game store to receive an event item.
Each code is made of three fragments that must be entered in the right order, and there are 9 codes in all. We have a dedicated Primal Codebreakers channel on Discord, where players can work together to solve the riddles. Get involved!
(*Special item codes can be redeemed once per player)
A special thankyou to the following community creators for contributing to this event:
ArchShiranui, Akira, Ghostway, Mathew Mii, Paradox_Sox, Velociboy, Visser Al, and waddigator
NEW NESTING GROUNDS
We're thrilled by the reaction to the new Borealis map and are happy to announce that it now supports Capture the Egg mode! Those crafty dinosaurs have had plenty of time to build nests all over the cloning facility after it was evacuated, with dozens of clutches hidden all over the place. Time to get in there and clear the place out.
As a reminder- each team takes turns playing humans, after which the one with the most egg points is crowned the winner. Remember: the highest value eggs are furthest from base!
DOUBLE EGGS-P
For the duration of the Easter Eggstravaganza, players will receive double extinction points while playing Capture the Egg mode! We've also added a new throwable weapon that may or may not trick the scalies...
We call it the "Explosive Grenegg" -stroke of genius from the guys in the lab, nasty surprise if mama tries to take this one back to the nest!
So get out there and steal some babies!
Wait, that sounded wrong...
EGG-NAPPERS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE STORE!
You might have noticed a certain *feathered fiend* is everywhere in the Extinction Store today. We've got Oviraptors coming out of our ears over here! We think one of them might have found a leftover jar of brain hormone, and having hijacked a remote terminal is now trying to take control of the item list.

They pecked apart the control pad on the door, so it could take a couple weeks before we're able to get in there and clear out the chickens... In the meantime, you can browse all the feathered finery on display by using our special event page on Trello.
STAY SAFE, STAY PRIMAL.
We're aware that many, many people are cooped up at home due to the coronavirus pandemic. Hopefully all of you are regularly washing your hands and staying safe indoors! If you're looking for something to do though, you could do a lot worse than becoming a dinosaur...
We'll soon be launching a month-long discount for Primal Carnage: Extinction, because who needs to go outside when you can hunt dinosaur eggs instead of chocolate ones? Stay safe people!
