Capcom Registers Dino Crisis Trademark

Author : Liam Mar 17,2025

Capcom's recent trademark application for "Dino Crisis" in Japan has ignited a wave of excitement among fans. While not a guaranteed announcement of a new game, the public filing strongly indicates Capcom is actively exploring possibilities for the franchise.

Securing the trademark lays the foundation for future projects, potentially including a remake of the beloved dinosaur survival horror series. Created by Shinji Mikami, the visionary behind Resident Evil, the original Dino Crisis debuted on the PlayStation 1 in 1999. Though followed by two sequels, the series went dormant after 2003, leaving a dedicated fanbase yearning for a revival.

This speculation isn't unfounded. Capcom explicitly stated its intention last year to revitalize dormant franchises, a statement quickly followed by announcements related to Okami and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Furthermore, a 2024 Capcom fan poll cemented Dino Crisis as the most desired franchise continuation, significantly bolstering hopes for its return.
