Capcom Hints at Exciting New Titles and Expanding Sales in Upcoming Months

Japanese Q&A in Financial Report Teases Unannounced Major Titles and More

In Capcom’s latest earnings report, the gaming giant’s remarkable performance in the 2023 financial year is not the only highlight. Capcom has enjoyed a fantastic year, marked by the release of several outstanding games, including the survival horror remake “Resident Evil 4,” the multiplayer third-person shooter “Exoprimal,” and the highly acclaimed fighting game “Street Fighter 6.” Fortunately for fans, it seems Capcom has no intention of slowing down.

In the Japanese question-and-answer section near the end of Capcom’s financial report, there are tantalizing hints about what gamers can anticipate in the coming months. Responding to a query about the company’s full-year new title sales plan, a Capcom representative alluded to the release of “Gyakuten Saiban 456 Odouki Selection” (the Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy) “in addition to currently unannounced major titles” as part of their strategy to expand sales.

This revelation opens the door to speculation about which franchises might see new additions. Capcom boasts an impressive lineup, including beloved series like Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, and the much-adored Ace Attorney. However, as of now, no specific details have emerged about the nature of these yet-to-be-announced major titles expected before March 2024.

When it comes to celebrating the upcoming 20th anniversary of the Monster Hunter series, eager fans hoping for news were met with a cryptic response. A Capcom representative stated, “there is nothing to report at this time,” leaving enthusiasts eagerly awaiting any updates related to this milestone.

The Q&A session also touched on Capcom’s approach to introducing games to platforms such as the iPhone 15 and the Steam Deck and how it has impacted the company. A representative clarified, “This is part of our company’s basic multi-platform strategy. We aim to maximize the number of users by supporting a variety of hardware.” They went on to reassure that the Steam Deck is not expected to significantly impact PC sales, emphasizing their commitment to competitive pricing and global sales expansion.

Clearly, a stellar year for Capcom isn’t enough, and the company appears poised to make a significant mark in 2024, leaving gamers eagerly anticipating the announcement of these mysterious new titles and further developments in their beloved franchises.
