How cross save and cross progression works in Exoprimal

Exoprimal supports cross save and cross progression. To see how these features work in this online multiplayer game, you can take a look at this guide from Seeking Tech.

Limitations

While Exoprimal supports cross save and cross progression, you are limited by ecosystem.

The Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and Windows PC versions support the same progression with each other.

If you are playing on the PlayStation ecosystem, then you can only share your progress between the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro and PlayStation 5 versions.

If you have the Steam version, then you won’t be able to carry your progress to any of the other versions of the same game.

How cross save works in Exoprimal

The player’s progress is saved through the Capcom ID cloud storage. So, in order to transfer your save data, all you need to do is log into the appropriate accounts on the new platform.

In the Xbox ecosystem, you should be using the same Xbox Live account and Capcom ID to log into the Exoprimal servers.

For the PlayStation ecosystem, you need to use the same PlayStation Network account and Capcom ID.

Any changes you made in the Settings menu on the original platform won’t be carried over to the new platform. For this data, you need to use the PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live cloud storage servers for transfers. Alternatively, you can simply adjust the Settings on the new platform to match your customize preferences from the old platform.

Can add-on content be carried over between different versions?

Any add-on content you purchased should be carried over to a different version of the game as long as you are in the same ecosystem.

Therefore, DLC you bought with your Xbox Live account should unlock for the Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and Windows PC versions.

The DLC you purchased with a PSN account should work for the PS4, PS4 Pro and PS5 versions.

Will achievement progress carry over?

Thanks to the Smart Delivery feature, Exoprimal achievements should carry over if you are playing the game on the Xbox ecosystem.

Will trophy progress carry over?

Your trophy progress won’t automatically carry over from the PlayStation 4 to the PlayStation 5 and vice versa.

With that said, you may be able to unlock specific trophies after finishing the first wargame session on the new platform and then viewing the results screen. Any progress-based trophies you previously earned on the original platform may unlock on the new platform.

How to fix ‘server error has occurred’ issues in Exoprimal

When playing Exoprimal, you get kicked out of your gaming session with the following message popping up:

  • “A server error has occurred. Failed to communicate with the server. Returning to the title screen.”

To see how you can prevent these disconnections from happening in the game, you can take a look at this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.

Before we begin, it is important to note that Exoprimal requires a constant online connection. So, if you decide to suspend the game and/or put your system in rest/sleep mode, then you will eventually be logged out of the servers.

If you are playing this game on the Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S, then you will keep getting this error due to Quick Resume. The only way to avoid it is to manually exit out of the game before turning off your console or putting it in sleep mode.

1. If you are seeing the “server error has occurred” messages outside of resuming a suspended session, then you should make sure that you don’t have any concurrent streams or downloads happening on the same network you are using to play Exoprimal online.

Otherwise, these will eat up your bandwidth and may, as a result, cause the servers to be disconnected.

2. You can also try power cycling your networking devices to see if you can get a faster and more stable internet.

In order to power cycle, turn off your modem, router and other electronics you are using for online connection. After waiting for at least 2 minutes, turn your networking devices back on again.

Once your internet connection has been re-established, try to play Exoprimal to see if you are still seeing disconnects.

3. If possible, try to switch over to a wired Ethernet connection as it is faster and more stable than using Wi-Fi.

If you are stuck with wireless internet, then you should make sure that there aren’t any physical objects that may be weakening the Wi-Fi signal. Other wireless devices may also hinder your wireless internet as well.

4. The disconnects may occur due to server problems as well. To check for sure, you can visit the official Exoprimal Twitter page to see if there are any announcements with the game servers.

If there are, then you should wait until the issues get resolved before trying to play online again.
