When the trailer for Second Extinction starts showing dino’s and your first thought is “damn, Turok!” Don’t worry, me too.

In Second Extinction you’ll team up with two friends (or play solo, if that’s your mad approach to things) and you’ll fly down to Earth from an orbital space station and attempt to slowly reclaim the planet from the terrifying mutant dinosaurs that have taken over.

The game is certainly high-concept, but it looks like it could be a lot of fun, especially in co-op.

After each mission, you’ll be able to buy new guns, upgrade the ones you have and prep for the next one.

One thing that stands out from the trailer is the dino designs themselves, and Brynley Gibson, the lead producer at developer Systemic Reaction spoke about this on the Xbox blog following the games reveal.

“We love dinosaurs but wanted our own take on them for Second Extinction. We had to keep a balance so they were recognizably dinosaurs, and not the cute kind. These freaks of nature each have unique traits that require different approaches in combat. How they even exist, the root of the mutations, and their seeming intelligence will be a mystery for players to discover over the coming campaigns.

We set out to make a game that could deliver on the spectacle you would expect from our heritage. We wanted a beautiful natural world, a ton of crazy looking enemies on screen, huge explosions, and as much blood as Nadia, our VFX artist, could pump out. It isn’t subtle, nor did we want it to be. Part of the joy of playing this game comes from that intensity of the action as bombs burst and limbs fly.”

What do you think? Are you excited to play some co-op dino-slaying in Second Extinction?
