Latest Steam announcements

  • Security Patch - 4 October 2025

  • Update 2.3.0 - 31 August 2025

    Changed the movement system to no longer use forward/backwards input. This brings the controls back to the original concept of the game where you'll need to think of creative ways to slow down or speed up if required. Improved support for Ultrawide and trivial aspect ratios. Improved compression of assets resulting in ~40% smaller disc size and increased FPS.

  • Update 2.2.1 - 6 January 2021

    Changed the party size limit in the main menu from 6 to 12.

  • Update 2.2.0 - 8 June 2020

    Adjusted AI to be less difficult. Increased the ambient brightness on tracks that were too dark to increase visibility of hazards.

  • Localization Support! - 19 September 2019

    - Localization support has been added for the following languages: Korean Japanese Simplified Chinese Russian French German Italian Spanish Portuguese - 32bit processor support has been discontinued due to this implementation of CJK characters.

  • Update 2.0.3 / 2.0.4 - 11 July 2019

    Fixed the game crashing in the main menu as a result of only having the Mammoth clan unlocked. (Thanks Pepsiman and Novronio). Mammoths can now also run through water. Updated menu logo.

  • Update 2.0.2 - 22 May 2019

    Fixed a multiplayer issue that was a result of splitscreen being added. (Thanks 4じょうきおと)

  • First Major Content Update - 6 May 2019

    The movement of animals has been drastically overhauled to provide a smoother yet more rewarding experience for those who can manage their speed and steering effectively. Along with this, animals can be overextended when sprinting, be it for strategy or if you haven't been paying attention and the longer you can maintain drifts for the more bonus adrenaline you will gain for boosting when you exit. We've also added a Speedster difficulty for those out there seeking more intense thrills. The new Totem Cup grand prix was designed to showcase the new movement system, featuring new types of twists and turns that we haven't seen before that rewards higher skill manoeuvres. The cup will take you through a dirt rally in the outback, over the high bridges of bluffs, a spiral descent through a large volcano and the changing beaches of a tropical island. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommu…

New keybinding and controller configuration menu for up to 4 players. Video Added screen darkening effect when close to danger. Changed cliffs to red on Ferny Trail. Improved colour gr…

  • Wallpaper Engine Collection - 20 April 2019

    While we've been busy with the first free content update for Primal Pursuit, we took some time to make a collection of scenes for those who use Wallpaper Engine. The collection features landscapes from the game including a few sneak peeks at the new Totem Cup. It can be found here or by searching for Primal Pursuit in the application. Enjoy! https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F33363558%2Fed264c03d1727c153e90af44def183a1005e4e46.jpg

  • Dev Blog - Updated Movement and New Grand Prix - 20 March 2019

    Hello racers! Since we released Primal Pursuit you may be wondering what we've been working on. Firstly, we've been looking at the movement system and have come up with some ideas to improve upon it. The most major change is that the animals will no longer run on their own without holding any buttons. The initial purpose of having them run automatically was to help you feel like you were really riding an animal. Ultimately however, this provides less control and requires no input from the player, which doesn't feel great. Now if you let go of the forwards button your animal will slow down and give you much greater control for taking turns or dodging. Among other tweaks, we will be adding to the adrenaline / sprint system to further enhance the feeling of riding a living animal and provide you with more options while racing. While sprinting and after you run out of adrenaline, you will b…
