Capcom could be working on bringing back more of its older titles following the release of Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster next month. Capcom has come a long way since it began manufacturing video game Arcade machines in 1979. While newer gamers might only recognize a few of its popular franchises such as Street Fighter, Mega Man, Ace Attorney, Devil May Cry, Monster Hunter, Dragon’s Dogma, and Resident Evil, the company has had many other fan-favorite titles over the decades. IGN spoke with the DRDR team and asked what might next be in store, perhaps a new Dead Rising game, maybe even another older IP brought back for the modern gaming audience, and here’s what they had to say.
Per the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster team (via IGN):
- “Capcom would like to continue to bring back many of its IPs. In hopes of expanding upon the Dead Rising series in the future, we’d first like to put effort into promoting Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster and share its appeal with fans around the world.”
So even though Capcom could be working on bringing back older IPs, it’s not quite ready to let the world know about them, yet. According to a recent survey, Dino Crisis is a title often brought up as possibly having either a remaster or new entry, as is Onimusha, Darkstalkers, Ace, more of its many vs. games, and Breath of Fire. Other older titles that some might wish to see brought back might include Bionic Commando, Lost Planet, and maybe even Ghost ‘n’ Goblins.
Brief company description (via official site):
- “Groundbreaking franchises like Resident Evil™, Street Fighter™, Devil May Cry™, Monster Hunter™, Ace Attorney™ and the Mega Man™ series set the standard in creative innovation, character development and unsurpassed gameplay. Guided by the idea of fostering a culture of entertainment, Capcom has consistently acted on this view by creating innovative and hugely popular games that push technical and creative limits.”
