The first two entries in the Dino Crisis are now available on PC via GOG, and they both come with several enhancements over the original releases.
Among the various enhancements included in the new releases of the two classic survival horror series developed by CAPCOM are full compatibility with Windows 10 and 11, all localizations, Original, Arrange and Operation Wipe Out modes for the first game, Easy difficulty, Dino Colosseum and Dino Duel for the second, improved DirectX game renderer, new rendering options including V-Sync control, gamma correction, integer scaling, anti-aliasing and more, increased rendering resolution to 4K and color depth to 32-bit, improved geometry calculation, smoother animation, video and music playback, cloud saves support and much more. The two games are available as standalone purchases for $9.99 each or as a bundle costing $16.99.
The Dino Crisis series has been left dormant for a good while and has only recently seen some attention from CAPCOM with the re-release of the first entry of the series on the PlayStation Store for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. While series creator Shinji Mikami believes the Japanese publisher won't bring back the series while the Monster Hunter franchise continues to be so successful, CAPCOM not only recently registered a new trademark, but is also showing how it is more than willing to bring back dormant franchises with the announcement of new entries in the Onimusha and Okami series. Hopefully, the Japanese publisher will show Mikami-san that Dino Crisis and Monster Hunter can easily coexist in the future.
