Apparently the newest issue of The Official Xbox Magazine UK says that capcom is preparing a reboot to Dino Crisis that will be unveiled later this year. Not much more information than that was shared in the issue. Gotta say as much as I want this news to be real, I have my doubts. There's been a few rumors in the past stating as much that amounted to nothing. Though I wouldn't be a fan if I didn't at least hold a single thread of hope. If this is indeed real I have a feeling it'll be another third party effort. Since I believe all of Capcom's internal teams are currently working on other projects. I suppose they could go a RE6 route, internal with a lot of outside help handling different aspects....but we all know how that went.


Couldn't find any English Sites to use as a source, but a lot of european sites have been posting the story. Went with the site with the most validity.

[Mendrox]

Yes! F2P

 

[ShinobiFist]

Man, I hope they use the RE 6 engine.

 

[SuperÑ]

Yessssssssssss

 

[Ooccoo]

Onimusha too please kthx

 

[u_neek]

Next-gen dinos? DO want!

 

[Mets39]

Hope for the best, expect the worst

 

[nampad]

That would be interesting. After a gen full of zombie games shooting some dinosaurs would be a quite welcome change.

 

[Queen of Hunting]

could be xbox exclusive if oxm is talking bout it.

could make a huge uproar like bayonetta 2 lol

 

[goldenpp72]

If they turned this into a RE4 like, i'd probably go insane with joy

 

[GHG]

Hope for the best, expect the worst

This.

I refuse to get my hopes up in anticipation of this no matter how much I'd love it to be great.

 

[News Bot]

GIVE IT TO SHU FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

 

[Acquiescence]

That would be great. I only ever played the first Dino Crisis, but it was good stuff back in the day; proper panic-inducing. Would love to see the series make a comeback.

 

[RubberJohnny]

Is just re-introducing old series the new "new IPs"? Peak AAA stagnancy?

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Well, something has to replace DMC.

 

[Raytow]

Another mediocre western developer to helm the remake, prepare for disappointment, yeah!

 

[Xater]

Man, I hope they use the RE 6 engine.

Why would they use MT Framework when they have a new engine for current gen?

This just sounds so unlikely. It has been so long since the last Dino Crisis and they basically ruined it themselves with DC3.

 

[Itchy//Tasty]

Even with the state of Capcom/Resident Evil, I'm all for this. This could become the action series whilst Resi could lean back towards horror.

 

[tei15]

If they do it right (i.e. develop it internally and not outsorce to western devs) this should be awesome. I just bought original xbox to plat Dino Crisis 3 and I'd love to see new game on next gen.

 

[spawnsniper]

Of course they're making a dino crisis, they need to ruin this game just like they did with all their other IPs.

 

[ZeroX03]

I do feel the need for more dinosaurs in my games... I'm in.

 

[Hurley]

Dino Crisis reboot on panta rhei pls.

 

[Dusk Golem]

I'll be interested in it, horror or action. Of course hoping more for a horror route, but we shall see.

 

[Blablurn]

I cannot wait for later this year. Give it to me now.

 

[Xater]

Of course they're making a dino crisis, they need to ruin this game just like they did with all their other IPs.

It has already been ruined by the third game. Can't get much worse than that.

 

[big_z]

could be xbox exclusive if oxm is talking bout it.

after dead rising 3 I would say the odds of it being xbox exclusive are pretty good.

 

[abstract alien]

Hope for the best, expect the worst

Yep, so iOS/Android it is. Anything more than that and I'll be happy to take it.

 

[Scanna]

Of course they're making a dino crisis, they need to ruin this game just like they did with all their other IPs.

well they did not ruin dead rising

 

[Takamura-San]

THANK YOU NINJA THEORY!!!

ALL OVER MY FACE!!

 

[goldenpp72]

after dead rising 3 I would say the odds of it being xbox exclusive are pretty good.

Well, DC3 was exclusive and that worked out really well

 

[sector4]

Huge fan of the first two, despite how different they are. DC1 had one of the best underwater levels I've ever had the pleasure of playing.

Would absolutely love to see it make a comback on PS4/XB1.

 

[Neff]

If it's Japanese, I'll take one.

If it's another in the long line of franchises that met their end in Capcom's Western outsourcing abattoir, then no thanks.

 

[8bit]

Oh good, more dinosaurs in space.

 

[JimmyRustler]

Man, would really like to see another game with Dinosaurs. It's been so long...

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Its a marketing stunt. Pretty much the MO of Future publishing Mags.

Notice, it says "confirmed for PS4" not "exclusive to PS4"

The Xbox mag releases earlier so they break the story, then the PS4 mag breaks the Multiplatform development, followed shortly by capcoms official annoucement.

 

[The Giant]

Yes, please.

 

[Hellraider]

And we all know who the developer is

 

[Ushojax]

I'm sure this will be of the same high quality as recent Capcom classics like Lost Planet 3 and Resident Evil 6.

 

[CouchMaster]

So this what that Ninja Theory tweet was about

 

[spawnsniper]

well they did not ruin dead rising

Not yet. I did enjoy the game.. but it seems they have something good going and then they go and ruin it. Typical capcom.

 

[Rizzi]

I'm sure this will be of the same high quality as recent Capcom classics like Lost Planet 3 and Resident Evil 6.

Wait, Lost Planet 3 released?

 

[spawnsniper]

It has already been ruined by the third game. Can't get much worse than that.

Ooohhh I had forgotten about 3... what are the chances of capcom redeeming themselves? Close to none?

 

[Contra11]

I'm sure this will be of the same high quality as recent Capcom classics like Lost Planet 3 and Resident Evil 6.

Huh .. It seems recently that nothing good comes from Capcom either from internall teams or outsourced

 

[Ban Puncher]

Just keep those feathers off my dinos, Capcom.

#WereYouThere

 

[Tenki]

Spark Unlimited's new chance.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

That will do me, remember really enjoying the original

 

[n0tail]

I hope this will be for current-gen only. I loved the first Dino Crisis and I have been wanting this series to come back for quite some time. Hopefully they'll do it good with co-op like RE5.

 

[Winterfang]

Hope it's more like RE5 and less like RE6.

 

[ZROCOOL]

Please, let it be true.

 

[Seven Force]

A Dino Crisis in the vein of the post RE4 games would be nice. Hell, it's arguably suited to that style more than RE is. Dino Crisis 2 was already kinda halfway there by switching focus to action.
