Top 10 Capcom Game Series that Most Need to Be Revived
Capcom has a lot of game franchises, some of which have become obscure as time passes. However, with the success of HD compilations, there is a strong possibility for Capcom to revive some of their dormant series.
Thanks to the success of the X Legacy Collection, it's highly possible that Capcom may bring back this series after its conclusion with X8, much like the original Mega Man with 9 and 10.
After so many compilations and re-releases, the series has yet to have a proper sequel since the third game. Hopefully, if Capcom reuses the engine from Street Fighter 5, it will shed light on what a fully fleshed-out sequel could be.
I freaking loved Darkstalkers 3! What happened to this series?
After the disappointment left by the third game, the series has become extinct for quite some time. However, with the success of the Resident Evil 2 remake, it's possible Capcom may use the same engine to revive this series one day.
An underrated gem that only saw two games for the Dreamcast and was ported to the PSP. With how unique the game feels, it's a shame that Capcom decided to bury this treasure.
I've never played it, but from what I've seen, it looks really fun and unique. Also, I had no idea Capcom made these games.
A funky beat 'em up with lots of parodies and references to popular movies and tokusatsu. The series has seemed to phase out after Red Hot Rumble and hasn't seen action ever since. Let's hope that Capcom will reuse Mega Man 11's engine to revive the series.
Just when the long-awaited sequel was about to happen, Capcom decided to pull the plug following the departure of Inafune from the company. Now, there's no telling when Capcom will decide to give the series a proper conclusion. Only time will tell.
Capcom's attempt to cash in on the success of Double Dragon. The series has only three games for the SNES, as well as a poor sequel for the PS2. If Double Dragon Neon is a thing, surely an HD sequel would have been possible.
A fighting game with customizable mechs and fast-paced action is surely a match made in heaven. It is truly an underrated gem under the rubble left behind by its fellow competitors.
The series mixes the hack 'n slash genre with Resident Evil, becoming the seventh best-seller in Capcom's library. With that said, the series hasn't seen action since 2006's Dawn of Dreams (excluding the browser game Soul from 2012).
Capcom's equivalent of Konami's Castlevania, being a notoriously difficult sidescroller set out to fight off some demons. The series was last seen in 2010 with Gold Knights II on the iOS.
