Dead Phoenix

Dead Phoenix is a cancelled GameCube game from Capcom. It was the black sheep of the Capcom Five.

Plot
You would play one of the last of the birdmen, a near-extinct tribe. To save your people you must fight off against a massive army.



Gameplay
The gameplay was a mix of Panzer Dragoon and Dynasty Warriors. Dead Phoenix would go a step further with allied team combat and charge attacks.

Development
Dead Phoenix was announced as one of the Capcom Five. These were five GameCube exclusive games from Capcom to recapture market share. All of them, save for P.N.03, was a GameCube exclusive. Dead Phoenix was the cancelled one.

Cancellation


The game attracted little attention. It didn't appear at E3 2003. Capcom felt it couldn't live up to its potential. Dead Phoenix was cancelled in August 2003.
