The Japanese company “Capcom” has released many classic titles that have great popularity and has managed to bring many of them back to the fore again, starting with the second part of Resident Evil 2 Remake and other new titles.
The Japanese company started 2022 with record financial profits and sales last year, which showed a clear growth in the company's profits. The last quarter.
In the three months ended September 30, 2022, net sales decreased by 29.9% year-on-year to 49,067 million yen, operating income decreased by 24.3% to 21,895 million yen, and ordinary income decreased by 22.6% to 22,996 million yen.
The company attributed this decline and decline to the release of a “new flagship” in the same period last year, which is likely to be Resident Evil Village.
This is despite the fact that Capcom's operating income for the first six months of its fiscal year is currently 25% below the previous year (21,895 million yen versus 28,924 million yen). Despite this, the company has confirmed that it aims to make up for this in the remaining half-year to achieve ten consecutive years of growth.
It is worth noting that Capcom officially announced a few days ago that sales of Devil May Cry 5, which was released three years ago, have surpassed 6 million copies worldwide. This number also includes sales of the Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition released on the current generation.
