Relive the thrill of survival horror with the return of Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2, now available on GOG for PC! These cult classic PlayStation games are back, DRM-free and fully intact, thanks to GOG's Preservation Program. Originally released in 1999 and 2000 respectively, these titles offer a nostalgic trip back to the era of dinosaur-infused terror. While a new Dino Crisis game remains elusive, despite fan demand and the release of Capcom's Exoprimal, these re-releases offer a welcome opportunity to experience these survival horror gems. The original versions were notoriously difficult to run on modern systems, making GOG's enhanced versions a significant boon for fans.
GOG's release ensures these titles are playable and enjoyable on modern PCs. The company boasts improved compatibility, enhanced graphics, and full controller support, addressing many of the technical hurdles that plagued previous attempts to run these games.
