You can really ruin anything with this sentence
I thought maybe the third one might end up on Xbox One via BC.
While it's speculation those occurrences do seem like a rapid change in approaching the property. I hope you get your wish, Jaw :)This year has seen a lot of Dino Crisis developemts. Probably more than any other year since I have started tracking the game and sharing news with you all. Watching it all take progress slowly but surely to me seems to indicate that Capcom might finally be interested in returning to the series in some form. While I don't have enough information to accurately say exactly what form that will be. It does seem that the series will no longer be treated as a forgotten franchise. In case you haven't been keeping track, these are the biggest events leading to this point in time.

June 9th, 2014: Capcom Vancouver adds Regina as a Costume in Dead Rising 3
Dec 5th, 2016: Capcom could revive other "Dormant" franchises
February 15th, 2017: Capcom Vancouver almost rebooted Dino Crisis (Neogaf Link)
March 7th, 2017: Resident Evil 7 Producer Masachika Kawata (Worked on prior DC games) hopes in his heart for a new Dino Crisis even if there are currently no plans
April 27th, 2017: Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite interview says Dino Crisis came up often (Season 2 character's are currently unknown)
September 28th 2017: Capcom France mentions the series in a Throw Back Thursday twitter post
September 29th, 2017: Puzzle Fighter community manager asks what character should be added. Regina receives lots of support
October 6th, 2017: Capcom Vancouver has Dino Crisis listed in Dead Rising 4's Capcom Heroes mode
October 22, 2017: (Rumor) Mikami_XKira (SFV Data Miner) lists Regina as a upcoming costume for SFV

While there's nothing mind blowing here or conclusive to post some sort of Dino Crisis return as a 100% probability. Currently it feels like the series is closer than ever before in returning to the gaming realm. If the XKira rumor itself holds true, it would be the first time since Dino Crisis 3 that Capcom Japan has ever touched the series and not just allowed Capcom Vancouver (Western Branch) to use it. That alone speaks volumes to me. For whatever reason Dino Crisis was always snubbed in any sort of crossover fare. Crossover fare that would include smaller series in both reception and sales. Whether this was just due to neglect or to position the franchise with a clean slate if it were to return is beyond me. Regardless, I wanted to share these developments with you all and get your input on the matter. I will post more Dino Crisis news/rumors/questions as I get it. Thank you all for keeping hope alive as we continue on a new platform.
Now that RE7 took that franchise back toward horror from action, it'd be great if action RE could be carried forward with Dino Crisis. RE6 action with Dinos is the dream.
I'll be also keeping my fingers crossed for a return to the series though I'm doubtful at the moment.
Come one Capcom reboot some of your other old IP Dino Crisis and Onimusha.
