Capcom has sparked excitement among fans after it renewed the Dino Crisis trademark in Japan, with many taking it as a sign that we could soon see a remake or a revival of the franchise.

The Dino Crisis franchise, which debuted in 1999, remains one of Capcom’s most requested revivals, and fans have renewed hope after the Japanese developer and publisher renewed its trademark.
While companies often renew trademarks to ensure they remain the IP owner, it hasn’t stopped fans from asking Capcom for the series’ return.
Capcom’s Hints at a Possible Dino Crisis Revival
Developed by the Resident Evil team and released in July 1999, Dino Crisis is one of Capcom’s most revered franchises, despite not having a new entry since 2003. While the last two decades have often seen talk of a possible revival, a recent trademark renewal from Capcom on March 4 has sparked speculation that it could be closer than ever.
Fans have been right to point to the recent success of the Resident Evil remakes as an example of how Dino Crisis would do with a remake or new entry, and a recent vote has shown the series’ enduring popularity with fans voting it as the company’s second best game and best game amongst gamers aged 30-70 in the annual Capcom Super Elections. A further 103,331 fans want a reboot of previous IPs, showing Capcom that old games really are the best.

Why Now? The Perfect Time for a Revival
The success of the Resident Evil remakes has proven that Capcom can modernize classic survival horror titles and satisfy fans by updating a game’s controls and visuals while maintaining its story and gameplay.
The rise of other remakes in recent years, including Silent Hill 2 and the upcoming Metal Gear Solid Delta means the demand for older games like Dino Crisis has never been higher.

Will It Be a Remake or a New Sequel?
If Capcom is working on a Dino Crisis game, the big question will be whether it will be a remake or a brand new title within the franchise. The most likely choice from Capcom would be to release a remake, which would give new and old fans something to get excited about while the company focuses on the series’ future.
Regardless of whether we see a remake or a new game, a return of Dino Crisis would be a major moment for survival horror fans, and there is no better time for it to come. What are you waiting for Capcom?

While nothing is confirmed, Capcom has renewed the Dino Crisis trademark, hinting at a possible remake or new title for the franchise. Would you like to see the series return after two decades? Share your thoughts in the comments.
