Beast: The Primordial is the tenth major supernatural game for the Chronicles of Darkness, published by The Onyx Path. Matthew McFarland is the leading developer. The game was designed with crossover compatibility in mind, the Beast's mythology viewing almost all types of supernaturals as kin. As such, even though e.g. Forsaken are seen as "cousins", they are still considered offspring of the Dark Mother. It is also one of the first gamelines of the New World of Darkness that is not directly based on a gameline from the Classic World of Darkness.
