The T-Rex has a similar weak point on its throat, though it's very hard to hit unless you're right under it (where you'll quickly be killed) or the T-Rex is roaring.

Added DiffLines:
* VideoGameDashing: You can dodge sideways several feet by pressing the jump button while strafing sideways or backwards. This move doesn't use stamina and is ''essential'' for the game's combat, since dinosaurs can easily outpace you if you simply try to sprint away from them, and sprinting cancels your reload while dodging doesn't. Assault-class characters also have a special move in which they dash forward a moderate distance; this does have a cooldown and seems to be to quickly attack with a shotgun or similar close-range weapon.

''Second Extinction'' is a Co-OP {{FPS}} game published by Systemic Reaction (of ''VideoGame/GenerationZero'' fame). Set in a post-apocalyptic world where mutated dinosaurs have taken over the planet, humanity is on the brink of extinction.
You're among a squadron of soldiers sent on assignments to take out the mutated dinosaurs and reclaim Earth for humanity. Players can select from a variety of characters, each with unique abilities and weapons, as well as going through various campaigns including wiping out dinosaur hives, collecting dinosaur eggs for research, rescuing stranded humans, collecting and salvaging supplies from ruins of human outposts and of course fighting gigantic Alpha-class dinosaurs in lengthy boss battles.
Releases are made available for Windows, UsefulNotes/XboxOne and UsefulNotes/XboxSeriesXAndS. An updated, full release is expected around mid-2023.

!! Time to make the Dinosaurs Extinct... this time for Good!
* AbandonedMine: One of the stages, and it's abandoned nature makes it a perfect breeding ground for a new dinosaur colony. You'll need to guide a minecart loaded with C4 to it's heart to wipe out all the dinos.
* AfterTheEnd: The game is set after colonies of mutant dinosaurs, supposedly long-extinct, awakens from hibernation and starts repopulating and taking over the surface. Several levels have you coming across empty human outposts and settlements overrun by the hostile dinos.
* GatlingGood: You can collect a minigun for shredding dinosaur enemies apart.
* GiantMook: Ankylosaurs, Styracosaurs, and Apatosauruses are among the larger-than-average regular dinosaurs you'll be shooting at in several levels.
* GrenadeLauncher: One of the many weapons you can use, which fires an exploding energy projectile doing heavy damage on the dinos.
* InvisibleMonsters: One of the dilophosaurus sub-species enemies appears to have HollywoodChameleon DNA integrated into their bodies during the mutation, where it can randomly turn invisible while pursuing you.
* KillAllHumans: Owing to the mutation reverting dinosaurs to their natural, feral instincts, all the dinos (including stereotypically-docile herbivores like the ceratopses an dstyracosaurs) will maul humans to pieces by default.
* KillSat: The Orbital Shot, which drops a powerful energy beam from the stratosphere on the dinosaurs. It's especially useful on large dinosaur groups gathered together, though you'll need to pinpoint where it lands.
* RaptorAttack: Velociraptors are among the more common saurian enemies you'll encounter.
* SatchelCharge: Timed explosive bundles in pouches are one of the equipment you can use (it's even called Satchel Charge in-game) for blowing up dinosaurs. Best saved for larger enemies like styracosaurs and ankylosaurs.
* ShockAndAwe: Certain raptor enemies have started developing glands allowing them to generate electricity, where they'll shoot energy bolts on you as an attack or release a devastating electrical sphere covering a wide radius. Goes without saying that these are among the toughest opponents you'll face.
* ShootingGallery: Before you set off to shoot dinosaurs, you practice in a training stage where you shoot cardboard dinosaurs on moving panels. With little crosses spray-painted over their eyes for good measure.
* SniperRifle: One that the game calls Scout Rifle, but otherwise functions like a sniper. Which grants it's user a scope to zoom in on dinosaurs a long distance away and blast it at long range.
* SuperSpit: Dilophosauruses and certain raptors can launch their poisonous saliva at you as a ranged attack, in a manner similar to ''Franchise/JurassicPark''. The ArtisticLicensePaleontology could be justified this time however, because you're fighting ''mutated'' dinosaurs.
* TailWhip: Most of the dinosaurs does this, and their tails have a far wider range than their bite. In the case of the ankylosaurs and certain mutated raptors with spikes growing out their tails, it's BewareMyStingerTail instead.
* TemperCeratops: Mutant ceratopses will attack you on sight, and attempt to rough you up with their horns.
* TerrifyingTyrannosaur: A hostile ''mutant'' T-Rex serves as the strongest and most durable boss in the game, and a SuperPersistantPredator as well who keeps coming after you after absorbing north of 200 Gatling Gun rounds. Said T-Rex takes ''forever'' to finally put down, however killing it is optional.
* ToughArmoredDinosaur: Mutated ankylosaurs, who serves as HeavilyArmoredMook enemies capable of tanking plenty of hits before going down. Beware their RollingAttack!
