While rumors are stirring that Capcom teased a new https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/dino-crisis-review/1900-2547330/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/dino-crisis-review/1900-2547330/">Dino Crisis at Summer Game Fest, an answer during a group Q&A GameSpot attended suggests you shouldn't be getting your hopes up for a revival anytime soon.





Rumors about Dino Crisis' return first started to swirl when https://www.famitsu.com/article/202606/77968" id="https://www.famitsu.com/article/202606/77968">Famitsu posted a transcript of a https://www.gamespot.com/articles/yes-resident-evil-veronica-is-a-third-person-game/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/yes-resident-evil-veronica-is-a-third-person-game/">Resident Evil: Veronica Q&A it attended during Summer Game Fest Play Days.

X user and Resident Evil insider https://x.com/AestheticGamer1/status/2064743777529733326" id="https://x.com/AestheticGamer1/status/2064743777529733326">DuskGolem shared a translated version of the Q&A in which producer Yoshiaki Hiabayashi allegedly said, "I have no comment ... even though I know the answer."





That was subsequently aggregated by https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLeaksAndRumours/comments/1u2ibpq/dino_crisis_return_possibly_hinted_at_by_yoshiaki/?share_id=Bssio1xWKtIRBZUypvAdD&utm_content=1&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1" id="https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLeaksAndRumours/comments/1u2ibpq/dino_crisis_return_possibly_hinted_at_by_yoshiaki/?share_id=Bssio1xWKtIRBZUypvAdD&utm_content=1&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1">YouTuber Centre of Evil and users on Reddit, which Dino Crisis fans took as a sign of hope that the franchise could return.

There hasn't been a new Dino Crisis game since 2003, so many people really want Capcom to bring the franchise back.

Unfortunately, https://bsky.app/profile/knoebel.bsky.social/post/3mnzc5srvb22n" id="https://bsky.app/profile/knoebel.bsky.social/post/3mnzc5srvb22n">Gematsu's Sal Romano followed up on ResetERA, stating that Hiabayashi's response was a less playful "no comment." GameSpot can corroborate that interpretation.





During Summer Game Fest Play Days, I attended a group Q&A session with Hiabayashi.

While we were told to only ask about Resident Evil: Veronica prior to the start of the Q&A, someone still took the chance to ask, "Any comment about Dino Crisis?" In response, Hiabayashi said through a translator, "Sorry, no comment.

I think you saw that one coming."





While it's possible that Hiabayashi said something different in another Q&A, his very intentional "no comment" response here shows that Capcom really isn't trying to tease a Dino Crisis right now, especially during a discussion about a different game.

In terms of new action-horror games, Capcom's sole focus is clearly on Resident Evil: Veronica right now.





Resident Evil: Veronica is slated for release on PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 in 2027.
