![]() ![]() ![]() Street Fighter series: 34 million units.No word on that coming West, but a Chinese beta is planned for this year.Ĭapcom wheeled out some franchise sales as well, strongest first: That should shorten development times as well, which will save a few pounds.Ĭapcom is also keen to do more download-only releases, and "beef up" it's online gaming business, with the end goal of making it attractive outside of Japan - the key title here being PC MMO Monster Hunter Frontier G. Capcom hopes to "raise development efficiency and quality by producing more titles internally", too - something we've heard a bit about this before. Wait, what? Yes: fewer better games that are elongated and bolstered by DLC. And it plans to do this by releasing fewer games than ever, 30, compared to 46 last year and 68 the year before. This time next year, Capcom expects sales to be roughly the same but profits to be more than double - up to 6.8 billion yen (£44 million). There was mention of Ace Attorney 5 and Sengoku Basara 4 launching in Japan as well. ![]() Bullet point one: "Establish a new organisational framework for next-generation game hardware." End. The only other thing Capcom said about next-generation consoles was in relation to becoming "more competitive overseas by deepening global ties between development and marketing". "Development is proceeding on Deep Down, a new title for PlayStation 4," was Capcom's robotic remark. And very nice it looked too, like a mix between Dragon's Dogma and Dark Souls. Modest forecasts, but there are higher hopes for gangbusters series Monster Hunter and Monster Hunter 4 on 3DS, which Capcom believes will shift a meaty 4 million units this summer in Japan and other Asian countries alone.Ĭapcom also mentioned its in-development PlayStation 4 game Deep Down, revealed at Sony's PS4 extravaganza earlier this year. The figure was nestled in a forward-looking document concerned with the year ahead - a compliment to yesterday's annual how-we-did paper.Ĭapcom also revealed that it wants Resident Evil Revelations, due out 24th May in Europe, to shift 1.2 million units as well. Capcom expects Lost Planet 3, due out 30th August in Europe, to sell 1.2 million copies. ![]()
