Capcom Forecasts Lost Planet 2, MvC 3, Others To Hit 2 Million And Up

Capcom this week projected fiscal 2010 unit sales for major upcoming releases -- all big sequels with plenty of hit potential.

During the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011, the Osaka, Japan-based publisher said that it expects the PSP game Monster Hunter Freedom 3 to sell 3.6 million units. It's the highest unit sales estimate listed by Capcom in its latest financial report, despite the fact it will be released only in Japan, late in the year.

Capcom expects the Blue Castle Games-developed Dead Rising 2, the sequel to the internally-developed 2006 Xbox 360 exclusive Dead Rising, to sell 3 million units. The game is slated for an Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 release in late September/early October this year in Japan, U.S. and Europe.

mvc3 should be expected to go higher

maskedwarrior5526d ago

True. It should do around SF4 numbers, if not more.

reintype5524d ago

2.2M for Lost Planet 2? I bet they didn't see those reviews, when they made that forecast.

3M for Dead Rising 2? 1-2M Sure, but 3M? I don't think so.

The 2 figures above, make it more like wishful thinking.

But their forecast for MVC3 at 2M, is low IMO.

I feel a new DMC on the horizon.

New IP, please. Used to be (in the 80s) if it was a Capcom game, you knew it was good.

jznrpg6d ago

Pragmata is a new IP so there’s that. Another one would be nice though

Honestly Capcom is still somewhat of a seal of quality for me.

shinXseijuro6d ago

Trust me I’m a Capcom baby. Got fond memories of Megaman and all the good library they had on snes 😂 . I always felt bummed Capcom shunned Megaman tho ever since inafune left the company . Pragmata seems like it’s a new Megaman sort of
