Capcom has recently filed an application to register the Dino Crisis trademark in Japan, and this information is now accessible to the public. While this move doesn't confirm the launch of a new game, it does indicate that Capcom is seriously considering new developments within the franchise.
By securing the Dino Crisis trademark, Capcom might be setting the stage for future endeavors, possibly including a remake of the beloved dinosaur survival horror series. The franchise, originally crafted by Shinji Mikami, the genius behind Resident Evil, first hit the shelves in 1999 for the PlayStation 1. It went on to produce two sequels before going quiet after the third game's release in 2003, leaving fans both perplexed and hopeful for more.

These speculations have a solid foundation. Last year, Capcom announced plans to "revitalize older franchises that haven’t seen new releases in recent years." This statement followed the announcement of the Okami Sequel and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Moreover, in a fan-driven poll Capcom conducted in the summer of 2024, Dino Crisis topped the "most desired continuation" category, adding to the anticipation for its revival.
