Is Capcom Finally Bringing Back Dino Crisis?

Capcom quietly renewed the Dino Crisis trademark in multiple countries. Could this be the long-awaited comeback fans have begged for?

Capcom has officially renewed the Dino Crisis trademark in Brazil, filed on July 3, 2025, with the National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI). This filing comes just months after a similar renewal in Japan, pointing to a global move for the series.

The news was reported by Brazilian outlet REVIL Portal and quickly spread across various social media.

What Does This Mean?

Trademark renewals do not guarantee a new game, but they do signal that Capcom wants to keep the brand alive and under its control. That alone is enough to trigger speculation, especially since the franchise has been asleep for over 20 years.

Fans of the franchise have long been asking for a Dino Crisis remake in the style of Resident Evil 2 and 4, both of which were massive hits. With Capcom also reviving franchises like Onimusha and greenlighting sequels such as Okami 2, the timing feels right.

Capcom’s Current Momentum

Capcom is on a roll, pushing several big projects:

  • Resident Evil continues to dominate with remakes and mainline entries.
  • Monster Hunter remains a global blockbuster, even if Wilds struggles a little bit
  • Nostalgic revivals are in full swing, with Onimusha: Way of the Sword announced and even Okami making a comeback.

With all this, Dino Crisis looks like the obvious next candidate for a revival.

Fan Hopes Remain High

The community’s demand has never faded, often referring to Capcom as “Capgod” whenever a fan-favorite IP makes a return. With renewed trademarks in both Japan and Brazil, the hope is that Regina and her dinosaurs might soon roar back to life! It could be as a remaster, remake, or even a new entry.

A trademark does not confirm anything, but Capcom’s repeated renewals across multiple regions strongly suggest the publisher is keeping the door open for Dino Crisis. After years of silence, it might finally be time for this cult-classic survival horror series to return!
