Capcom Trademarks Dino Crisis

by Scarlett Apr 05,2025

Capcom has recently taken a significant step by filing an application to register the Dino Crisis trademark in Japan, which is now publicly accessible. While this move does not confirm the development of a new game, it certainly indicates that Capcom is considering various possibilities for the franchise's future.

By securing the Dino Crisis trademark, Capcom could be setting the stage for exciting new projects, possibly including a much-anticipated remake of the beloved dinosaur survival horror series. Originally crafted by Shinji Mikami, the creative genius behind Resident Evil, Dino Crisis first hit the shelves in 1999 on the PlayStation 1. The series saw two sequels, but after the release of the third game in 2003, it went quiet, leaving fans both puzzled and hopeful for its revival.

These speculations are not without foundation. Last year, Capcom expressed its commitment to "revitalize older franchises that haven’t seen new releases in recent years." This statement followed closely on the heels of announcements for the Okami Sequel and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Moreover, in a fan-driven poll conducted by Capcom during the summer of 2024, Dino Crisis topped the "most desired continuation" category, adding fuel to the fire of anticipation for its return.
