GOG Resurrects Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2 on PC

GOG resurrects the cult classic survival horror games, Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2, with DRM-free PC re-releases. Both titles, originally released on PlayStation, are now available on GOG's platform as part of their Preservation Program, retaining their original content.

While Dino Crisis 3 remains an Xbox exclusive, and despite fan calls for a new entry or HD remake, Capcom appears to have moved on, with Exoprimal seemingly ending any hope for a Dino Crisis revival. Even creator Shinji Mikami has expressed doubt, citing the success of Monster Hunter.

However, GOG's release is a significant boon for fans. Previously difficult to run on modern systems, these PC ports offer enhanced compatibility and numerous improvements.

Dino Crisis (GOG Version) Enhancements:

• Full Windows 10 and 11 compatibility.

Dino Crisis 2 (GOG Version) Enhancements:

• Full Windows 10 and 11 compatibility.
