Capcom has brought its dinosaur-hunting, survival-horror, third-person shooter (TPS) game to Valve‘s digital platform.

Originally released in 1999, Dino Crisis bends spacetime to unleash prehistoric threats on the survival horror genre. The game follows special agent Regina on a covert mission that takes a shocking turn when she infiltrates a facility overrun with dinosaurs. Experience the thrill of overcoming ancient terrors while unraveling the mystery behind their panic-inducing return.

In the action-packed sequel, players travel back in time to the Cretaceous Period jungles. In Dino Crisis 2, Regina returns for more intense battles against dinosaurs as part of a mission to rescue survivors of a time-displaced city. Take on greater numbers of ferocious dinosaurs with an expanded arsenal of weapons as the arcade action escalates to a whole new level.

The Steam versions of Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2 preserve the original experiences while including enhancements that support compatibility with modern operating systems and controllers. However, it might be worth spending the money on the GOG version, even though the two Dino Crisis games are available on Steam at half price ($/€5 instead of $/€10 – roughly 2,000 HUF instead of 4,000 HUF). We’ll explain why.

Capcom has recently decided to include DRM in its games. The first and second parts of Dino Crisis are no exception. They don’t have Denuvo; they have Enigma DRM, which is linked to a suspicious Russian company. It’s as if we’ve gone back 20 years in time because Starforce used to drive a lot of PC gamers crazy.

When we launch the first game, it checks our machine’s registry, but with a typo: it doesn’t read “check registry”, but rather “chack registry”. Capcom also included this DRM in Resident Evil: Revelations, but due to criticism, they eventually removed it. Does Capcom really dislike modding in its games that much?
