- Capcom has recently shown its intention to bring back more classic IPs after Dead Rising.
- The studio currently wants to focus on working on and promoting the remaster.
- Fans can expect the revival of their favourite IPs as a remake/remaster seems inevitable now.
Capcom has been working to appeal to its fandom lately. The developer outdid itself with the Resident Evil 4 remake and continues to meet expectations. While many other developers aim to stop selling physical games, Capcom has no plans to do so.
Following recent success with various re-releases and classic revivals, it is aiming to revive more classic IPs after Dead Rising.
Why it matters: Capcom has a wealth of IPs that haven’t seen much attention recently. Fan demand for revivals like Dino Crisis is also plentiful, making the publisher’s intentions quite encouraging.
In an interview with IGN, Capcom made its intent clear to bring back the old IPs to life. IGN asked the developer whether fans should take the Deluxe remaster as a sign of more things to come in the future.
The studio was also asked if it aims to go back and remaster other Dead Rising games or make a completely new entry. Capcom had an encouraging response.
Capcom would like to continue to bring back many of its IPs.
Regarding the Dead Rising games, it hopes to expand the series in the future, but of course, that depends on the reception of this upcoming release. The developer would like to promote and share the remaster with the fans before jumping to any conclusions about the series.
Recently, fans have criticized the remaster, claiming the developer is tweaking it too much for the modern audience. That could become a problem down the line, but the studio is interested in looking at the responses before making future decisions.
As for old Capcom games that deserve the treatment, Dino Crisis is very high on the list. Fans also want to see the likes of Mega Man and Onimusha back, so there is a lot of potential to explore classic franchises.
Also, the developer has recently been working with Microsoft to bring its old games to Xbox. So, Xbox fans should expect the iconic games to be on their preferred platform soon enough.
