A new Capcom survey has led fans to speculate that once-popular horror IPs Dino Crisis and Dead Rising could be making a return. Both beloved franchises have been dormant for many years now, with Dead Rising 5 canceled in 2018, and Dino Crisis hasn't been seen since the original Xbox, despite many fans hoping for a Resident Evil 2-style remake.
Both the Dino Crisis and Dead Rising franchises were criticized for losing their way in their later entries and turning into more action-heavy titles as opposed to survival horror. In 2016's Dead Rising 4, the timers on each mission that gave a sense of urgency were eschewed to allow for more of a sandbox experience which was criticized for having no real tension. Meanwhile, 2003's Xbox-exclusive Dino Crisis 3 saw the franchise moving into the distant future of 2548 upon a spacecraft, and leaving behind the series' fan-favorite lead Regina in exchange for a new protagonist. Despite this, many fans have been hoping Capcom would return to Dino CrisisandDead Rising once again.
