Veteran Capcom Dream Team Unleashes Action RPG ‘Stupid Never Dies’ in 2026
Stupid Never Dies marks the debut of GPTRACK50 Inc., a NetEase studio founded by Capcom veteran Hiroyuki Kobayashi. His team comprises former developers with experience on series like Devil May Cry, Resident Evil, and Dragon’s Dogma. Shinya Shigeyoshi, lead engineer at GPTRACK50, has stated that most of the studio’s staff bring at least 15 years of industry experience. Scheduled for release on PS5 and PC in 2026, Stupid Never Dies is a Japanese-produced action RPG aiming to refresh the genre and potentially expand into other entertainment mediums. Kobayashi has indicated that the gameplay will echo the quality of Capcom’s 3D action games, though it will not emphasize complex combos to the same degree as Devil May Cry. The game’s rapid development is credited to a “systems-first” design strategy.
In Stupid Never Dies, players assume the role of Davy, a zombie living at the base of a society ruled by monsters. He embarks on a mission to save Julia, a human girl frozen in ice. Davy will partner with unique allies, confront enemies like werewolves, lizardmen, and skeletons, and acquire enemy abilities for his own use. The creators promise a distinctive adventure, highlighting the game’s “Blazing Fast Growth” action RPG style within a vibrant and rebellious world. GPTRACK50 Inc. offered a first glimpse of Stupid Never Dies at The Game Awards 2025, showcasing a music video-style teaser trailer. The teaser features Davy and Julia set to the game’s theme song, previewing Davy’s adventures and the creatures he will face. Here’s a rundown on some new releases: 1. Stake Story: A skateboarding game with grungy visuals. 2. Octopath Traveler 0: A retro JRPG focused on tactical battles. 3. Sleep Awake: A horror game featuring familiar stealth mechanics. 4. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond: Improved atmosphere, but hindered by a dull overworld and clunky psychic powers. 5. Routine: A moon-based horror game with a strong atmosphere. 6.
