What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Primal Reign: The Age of New Kings is an ambitious VR title, and we want to build it transparently with the community rather than behind closed doors. Early Access lets us put a playable, polished slice of the game into players’ hands, gather real-world feedback (comfort, performance, weapon feel, pacing, difficulty, readability in-headset), and use that to guide the rest of development.

If you’re unsure, we recommend giving the demo a try first. If you enjoy the core experience and want to help shape what Primal Reign becomes, Early Access support genuinely makes a difference—thank you.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to remain in Early Access until the game’s core systems are feature-complete, well-balanced, and stable across a wide range of PC VR setups, and until the content offering represents a satisfying “season” of the full experience.

We don’t want to lock ourselves into a date—VR development is highly iterative, and we prefer to commit to quality and clarity rather than timelines.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Over time, we plan to expand Primal Reign with additional story content, locations, encounters, weapons/tools, enemy types, and progression—alongside continued improvements to AI, interaction depth, comfort/accessibility options, and performance optimisation.

We also want to significantly raise the presentation bar as production grows. Our ambition is to bring the full version to life with full performance capture (including mo-cap) and dedicated voice talent, plus more cinematic storytelling and bespoke set-piece moments where it makes sense.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access currently delivers a playable, stable portion of the game that includes the core VR interaction and combat loop, the foundations of progression and pacing, and an Early Access segment that is longer than the demo. This is the “real game” in an earlier form—not a concept or prototype—and it will continue to expand and improve over time.

As we iterate, you should expect regular balancing and polish passes, ongoing optimisation, and periodic content updates. Minimum and recommended specifications may change as the project evolves.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to gradually increase the price as major content and feature milestones are added. Players who purchase during Early Access will not be charged extra for updates released as part of that Early Access journey.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will actively use Steam Discussions, bug reports, and player feedback to prioritise fixes and improvements—especially around comfort, controls, weapon feel, performance, difficulty, and progression. We’ll share update notes and development intentions as clearly as possible so players can see what’s changing and why.

If you choose to support us in Early Access: thank you. You are helping us give Primal Reign the time, craft, and production quality it deserves.”

About This Game

There's always time for tea and biscuits.
Primal Reign: The Age of New Kings is a cinematic VR adventure that hurls you into the chaos of World War II, ancient Egyptian tombs, and time-rending catastrophe. Step into the boots of archaeologists Harriet Edwards and embark on an epic adventure along with your partner Ronnie Smith as their desert expedition collides with Nazi forces, reanimated mummies, and predators torn from prehistory.

What begins as a search for survivors at a dig site quickly spirals into a battle for history itself. Ancient portals open. Pharaoh’s guardians awaken. Dinosaurs stampede through war-torn ruins. And at the centre of it all lies a weapon that could alter the course of the war forever.

Fight, explore, and survive as you unravel the secrets of the Tomb of the New Kings.

Key Features

  • Cinematic Adventure – A sweeping story of pulp heroism, blending WWII combat with Egyptian mythology and prehistoric terror.

  • Dynamic VR Combat – Wield authentic WWII firearms, melee weapons, and tools as you fight Von Stahl and his platoon of Desert Korps, mummies, and fast and ferocious dinosaurs.

  • Time-Bending Exploration – Step through ancient portals into forgotten ages, uncovering secrets that link civilizations across centuries.

  • Iconic Heroes – Experience the witty banter and courageous partnership of Ron and Harriet as they brave impossible odds together.

  • Epic Set-Pieces – Tank battles in the desert, collapsing tomb bridges, river chases, knife fights on crumbling platforms, and clashes with towering beasts.

  • A Living Tomb – From labyrinthine catacombs to inverted pyramids, every chamber hides traps, treasures, and terrors.

Gear Up

So Grab a weapon, load that magazine, holster the pistols and deep dive into the ancient necropolis of Egypt as you dodge traps, climb over endless caverns, ride that mine cart, tie your arm with a bandage and go full adventure mode in this epic pulp adventure experience.

In Primal Reign: The Age of New Kings, history has teeth, guns and more teeth.
Will you survive the tomb, stop Von Stahl, and close the portal before all of time is devoured?
