Alright, here goes. So, there’s this thing with Capcom, right? I’m talking about the big Japanese game company. They raked in a cool ¥45.5 billion—not in Monopoly money, but real cash—over like three months ending June. They’re killing it, no joke. That’s a jaw-dropping 53.7% jump from last year. What’s behind this cash waterfall? Their games, obviously! Devil May Cry 5, Resident Evil Village, and Street Fighter 6. Oh, and a Netflix anime gave Devil May Cry 5 a little extra oomph.
Now, here’s a twist: Devil May Cry 5 has moved 10.5 million units. Picture this—1.7 million of those were just in the last few months. Resident Evil Village is another beast, reaching 12.2 million sales. Resident Evil 4’s catching up fast with 10.6 million. And Street Fighter 6? Yeah, it hit five million. Guess the Switch 2 launch was a good move.
Capcom didn’t just stop there. They sold 14.16 million units this period—up 48% from last year’s 9.53 million. Wild, right? And there’s more. Their operating profit? Through the roof, man. It skyrocketed 90.8% to ¥24.6 billion. Like, where do they even put all this money? Anyway, that’s the scoop.
