GOG brings back the dinosaur-filled survival horror classic Dino Crisis with updated features for modern PCs. Alongside the release, GOG launches a new 'dreamlist' tool to let players vote on which classic games they want to see on the platform next.
A survival horror classic is getting a new lease on life on PC — and it might be the first of many. PC games shop GOG announced the release of Dino Crisis and its sequel, both available starting today. Alongside the launch, the service also unveiled a new tool called “dreamlist,” designed to allow players to vote on which old games they want to see on GOG next. For those unfamiliar, Dino Crisis is essentially Resident Evil with dinosaurs.
That’s not meant as an insult: the first game was directed by original Resident Evil director Shinji Mikami, so the two series share a lot of similarities. Dino Crisis features the same methodical, survival horror gameplay but with faster (and occasionally much bigger) enemies to contend with. GOG states that the new port supports Windows 10 / 11 and includes updates like support for “~4K resolution” and modern gamepads. The two games can be purchased individually on GOG or as a bundle.As for the dreamlist, GOG describes it as an enhanced version of its existing wishlist feature: >It’s a place where your memories meet action. You tell us what matters, and we work to make it happen. Each vote is a spark that inspires publishers to act. With the brand new design, it’s easier than ever to champion your favorites and make sure your voice is heard — because we believe that together we can keep the classics alive. This development is particularly noteworthy given the inaccessibility of most classic games; a 2023 report from the Video Game History Foundation claimed that 87 percent of games released before 2010 are “critically endangered.” Today’s news follows the launch of GOG’s preservation program last year, which aims to keep classic games playable and accessible, even if they’re no longer maintained by their original developer or publisher
