Dead Rising Survey asks if you want DMC, Dino Crisis and Okami Remakes

Key recommendations

  • Capcom is asking fans if they want remakes similar to the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster for series like Devil May Cry, Dino Crisis, and Okami.
  • Many of these are long-dormant similar games, so it's a glimmer of hope that Capcom will dig deep into its back catalog and bring more than just Frank West back.



Dead Rising made a comeback last week with the Deluxe Remaster, sending us once again to the zombie-infested Willamette Parkview Mall after 18 years. But Capcom is already looking to the future, asking fans in a new poll what other games they'd like to get the DRDR treatment.

While DRDR runs on the new RE Engine, Capcom doesn't consider it a remake. So these games would be 1:1 “remasters” with a fresh coat of paint, rather than Resident Evil-like reimaginings.

Topping the list is Dino Crisis, which Capcom revealed earlier this year was among the most requested series to return. However, creator Shinji Mikami believes there is “no room” for the game because of… Monster Hunter. Regardless, Capcom is still gauging interest in the survival horror classic, but there are other incredibly popular games among that poll list;


  • Dino Crisis
  • Lost Planet
  • devil may cry
  • The power stone
  • resident evil
  • Onimusha
  • Darkstalkers
  • Okay

More faithful remakes (sorry, remasters) of classic Resident Evil games is definitely an interesting idea; we've had reimaginings of 2, 3 and 4, but keeping the classic tank controls with modern quality of life features in a new engine at DRDR would be a great way to let people experience the originals in the modern day.

Alternatively, we could see Resident Evil 0 and Code Veronica brought up to date. But I had tons from Resident Evil, so I'm sure DMC, Okami, and others on this list would be more popular choices. One of our executive editors, Jade King, even wrote about how much we need a reboot of Onimushatwo years behind—ahead of the curve, right?



Take this with a grain of salt

Capcom has been asking fans about the return of Dino Crisis for years, so don't take this as a guarantee that it will happen. But Dead Rising appeared in many of these polls, so it's at least a glimmer of hope that Capcom's long-dormant games won't be stuck gathering dust forever.

We also don't know how well the Deluxe Remaster does, which will no doubt factor into whether Capcom pursues similar remakes. Time will tell, but if you want to join the chorus of fans clamoring for these games to finally return and still enjoy the sun, you can fill out the survey here.
