The recently released survival-horror game Dinobreak is clearly drawing inspiration from Capcom's iconic Dino Crisis franchise. The original Dino Crisis, making its debut in 1999, played akin to Resident Evil, but with the terrifying addition of dinosaurs instead of zombies. This unique premise was well-received by gamers, earning critical acclaim and establishing itself as a standout survival-horror title of its era. The sequel, Dino Crisis 2 (2000), although transitioning towards action, continued to garner positive reviews.
However, the Dino Crisis series faced a decline post-Dino Crisis 2. The spin-off Dino Stalker received mixed reviews, Dino Crisis: Dungeon in Chaos, a first-person shooter mobile game, remained confined to Japan, and Dino Crisis 3, a sci-fi shooter game, faced a complete flop. The negative reception to Dino Crisis 3 has kept the series dormant for two decades now.

Capcom has provided no indication of a Dino Crisis franchise revival. As fans await the possibility of a Resident Evil-style remake for the original game, Dinobreak offers an alternative experience worth exploring. Developed by Dead Drop Studios, Dinobreak is an indie horror game that clearly embraces the essence of Dino Crisis. Despite being a budget release at $19.99, it is resonating positively with survival-horror enthusiasts, evident from mostly favorable user reviews on Xbox and Steam.
Based on the trailer, Dinobreak appears to blend the Dino Crisis concept with a setting resembling Raccoon City from Resident Evil 2. The main character even bears resemblance to Claire Redfield, the protagonist from Resident Evil 2. Fans of Capcom's vintage survival-horror games may find Dinobreak appealing, though some might view it as somewhat derivative.
Nonetheless, the availability of classic-style survival-horror games is always a welcome addition, particularly one with a dinosaur-themed narrative, considering Capcom's reluctance to revive the Dino Crisis series. Perhaps Capcom will reconsider post the completion of their Resident Evil remakes, although fans are advised not to set overly high expectations. Meanwhile, there is a slew of new horror game releases this month, ensuring horror aficionados will have a plethora of options to enjoy this Halloween.
