Instead of the pre-rendered backgrounds of the Resident Evil games that preceded it, Dino Crisis uses an original real-time engine with 3D environments. Finding the place overrun with dinosaurs, Regina must fight through the facility to discover its secrets and ultimately escape alive with her team. The story follows Regina, a special operations agent sent with a team to investigate a secluded island research facility. It is the first installment in the Dino Crisis series and was developed by the same team behind Capcom's Resident Evil series, including director Shinji Mikami, and shares many similarities with it. Dino Crisis is a survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom originally for the PlayStation console in 1999.
