Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami reveals that he isn’t too fond for the RE series anymore. The developer admits that he doesn’t like the fact that someone else created Resident Evil 5 without him and that Resident Evil 6 seems “more like a Hollywood action film than a zombie game.”
The earnings reports of Capcom's Fiscal year 2024 showcase the growth of PC over console, with 60% of game sales being made on the former.
What’s interesting is that, given how well their games sell, it’s very likely most of them fall into the 25/75 revenue split bracket. The larger ones, like Monster Hunter, are in the 20/80 bracket.
So even accounting for the vastly superior regional pricing on PC, I wouldn’t be surprised if revenue-wise from digital sales, both platforms are close, or if PC is ahead as well.
Yes PC is the biggest platform and it has definitely improved as a home console of sort plug and play. It's the only platform with actual freedom for gamers with modding. I was a console gamer for over 38 years and now I only play on Pc. Whether you are buying pre-built or building it yourself it's now easier than ever before to jump in
And my experience with pc gamers has been excellent, they are helpful with any questions on pc boards
As a gamer who also loves replaying his old favorite titles, possibly with a few mods as well, I can’t imagine ever getting another console.
They spoke about resident evil and monster hunter I would actually find the monster hunter breakdown more interesting tbh as I've always felt like this game would be at home on PC
but for resident evil it's always felt like a PlayStation mainstay despite having exclusivity elsewhere likely because it was where I first played it. The game feels like it's begging to be played lights off in the loungeroom late at night or also in VR I've never been as scared as I was playing re7 in VR
Is this really suprising? Looking at the evolution of the Switch, X|S and Playstation 5?
The biggest cause is probably the lack of game purchases on the Xbox platform. Also keep in mind this is only digital sales so there is a chunk of sales not being shown here.
MHHQ - Capcom has issued an anti-cheat patent aimed at detecting and stopping game data tampering during Monster Hunter Wilds multiplayer hunts.
Capcom announced its financial results for the fiscal year between April 2024 and and March 2025, marking another winning year.
More games in development you say, Breath of Fire 3 and 4 remastered collection? Because that is what I am waiting for.
I would buy remasters of 3 and 4 in a heartbeat, although GOG did make some improvements to the BOF4, it looks great for an old game.
Man, of everything they have remastered, I’d give them all up if it meant just getting these 2 remasters.
look, capcom has found a sweet spot for their games.
the RE engine is pretty amazing.
I wonder if they'll continue to make any new ace attorney and megaman games. They should definitely revisit breath of fire at some point, remaster em, pixel remaster. Please, something capcom.
I think they will continue to utilize all their IP's. They have found how to succeed and that's by making fun games
He finally publicly speaks his opinion on the matter.
Oh well sure what can you do lol.
Ok.......
So he pretty much agrees with the majority of RE fans
Dont buy the game on launch and Capcom will learn their lesson...what is so hard about that.
If I was him I would create a new IP just like RE.....Zombies, a mansion, a special team of characters going in to check things out. Not really copying when you created the RE fanchise. That would be a giant middle finger to Capcom
maybe that's cause he knows the game sucks now.
I don't blame him one bit. Mikami's the fucking man!
Even though I still do enjoy "most" of the RE games that have come out since he left quite a bit, his games, especially the RE Remake, were the BEST hands down. They were also some of the best games in the industry and its history.
