Primal is an action-adventure video game developed by SCE Studio Cambridge and published by Sony Computer Entertainment exclusively for PlayStation 2. On May 2016, the game was made available for the PlayStation 4 through the PlayStation Network.
Jennifer Tate (Hudson Leick) is pretty ordinary – or so she thinks. Sure, her life has been tough, losing both her parents as a baby and growing up in a string of foster homes. But Jen is a fighter – she knows how to get by. Now 21 years old, she works as a waitress, scraping together money to put herself through college. Jen lives with her boyfriend Lewis (Eric Loren), lead singer in an up and coming rock band. It is hard to believe that it was almost two years ago that fate brought them together, two souls more alike than either can quite comprehend.
Just lately, Lewis has been having really bad nightmares. Dreams that make no sense, dreams that he can't even begin to explain to Jen. Then one night, as his band nears the end of their set, Lewis spots a huge, staring, misshapen figure. He is unnerved and leaves the stage in a sweat – even Jen is unable to reassure him – something is not right.
As they leave the club, Lewis's nightmares become real. A monstrous creature bellows into the night. Jen is knocked to the ground, hitting her head hard. As she blacks out, her last vision is of her boyfriend, lifted away into the night-sky as if he were a rag doll.
As Jen slips in and out of consciousness, images of doctors and nurses standing over her give way to visions of talking stone gargoyles. She sits up, looks down on her still unconscious body. Scree (Andreas Katsulas), servant of Arella, goddess of Order, is a about to change her life, forever.
The game received "average" reviews, according to video game review aggregator Metacritic.
