Talon is a playable character in Primal Rage 2. He returns from his role in Primal Rage 1. Just like in Primal Rage 1, he is one of the fastest characters in the game. He has brand new normals that he can do however some of his normals are actually glitched, especially his slide on ducking LP which goes almost full screen compared to the slide he had in the first game. Talon is missing some of his iconic moves such as Frantic Fury and even doesn't have an overhead attack even though the sprites exist for it, it was going to be his original HP from Primal Rage 1. Talon is also the only returning character to not get a new render for the character select screen, instead using blown up sprites of his idle and winning animation for the character select screen instead.

- I'll rule the world yet!
- I like it fast and furious!
- Nice to meet you I'll call you dinner.
- I like the way flesh sticks to my claws.
- Bite me. No, I bite you instead.
