For what seems like ages, fans have been practically begging Capcom to breathe new life into the Dino Crisis franchise. While we’re still crossing our fingers for a new installment, there’s some good news for enthusiasts. The original Dino Crisis is making a comeback on PS4 and PS5, featured in the latest lineup of PlayStation Plus classics. And that’s not all—games like Dead Island 2, Ghostbusters, Gris, and several others are joining the roster.
On October 9, PlayStation dropped the big news about the latest slate of PS Plus Extra and Premium titles being added to their game catalog. Mark your calendars, as these games will start rolling out on October 15.
It’s a bit surreal to think that among this fresh batch of PS Plus additions, a game from 24 years ago, a PS1 classic no less, steals the spotlight. Soon, you’ll be able to relive Dino Crisis on modern consoles, complete with some snazzy quality-of-life updates and shiny new trophies. It may not be the blockbuster remake fans have been clamoring for, but it’s reassuring to see Capcom acknowledging the existence of Dino Crisis. It’s something to get excited about!
Also making its way to the PS Plus lineup this month is another survival horror gem from PlayStation’s past—Siren. While perhaps not as well-known as Dino Crisis, this PS2 treasure holds a special place in many hearts and boasts direction by Keiichiro Toyama, the mastermind behind the original Silent Hill.
