of his cockpit and into an epic Zelda-style adventure exclusive

Planet, tearing chunks of the planet from its surface. If Dinosaur

wield magical weapons against predatory creatures and massive
bosses.

detailed landscapes on a planet filled with dinosaurs. Travel
through lush jungles, deep caverns, ancient temples, pristine
beaches, a deadly volcano and other incredible alien landscapes.
