Such a crime Dragon's Dogma hasn't sold more. Great game that was hurt real bad by critics being down on Japanese games at the time of its launch.

Should have made a new entry this gen, with no elder scrolls 6 it could have got the attention of people wanting that type of game. Missed opportunity imo.

RE 7 to become best selling RE, great game, 8 is gonna be amazing.

I would love Dino Crisis and Onimusha collections remastered.

Street Fighter V found redemption after the slow start.
That without rely on several new versions like SFIV had to do.

Resident Evil VII was always a winner since begining... high changes to become the best selling RE in the franchise (probably next quarter already).

Capcom, for the sake of clarity, combine different releases of the same game into one! At this point:
Resident Evil 7 is 4th;
Resident Evil 6 is 3rd and 40th;
Resident Evil 5 is 2nd, 32nd and 49th;
Resident Evil 4 is 33rd, 42nd, 48th, 54th and 86th.

Only 1 million dragon dogma in current gen...
is that enough for a 2 ?
Well until March 31 the IP had 5.0 million lifetime sales so yeah i think that's more than enough.
And in any case Itsuno had received the greenlight to start making a DD2 before he started working on DMC5 but he chose to make DMC5 first. So after DMC5 had shipped i'm sure he started working on DD2. I'm willing to bet that that was also the reason why there was no real DMC5 dlc (besides the Bloody Palace free update).

most of the sf5 sales came from deep discounts .. the lunch sales were abysmal ..
Now imagine how many players are buying the season unlock characters or other stuffs.

SFV should be F2P to be fair.

But how it is now Capcom is making money like never did with the franchise... monetizing from all sides.

It is a clear case of success.

Monster Hunter World sales are insane.
And a 30% uptake on the DLC is pretty damn good considering it is priced as a full game but requires the orginal game. Safe to say we will be seeing more Monster hunter in the future.

Nice to see Street Fighter V becoming the top 10 best selling game in Capcom history, and RE7 in the top 4 (or 3 in a few weeks).

most of the sf5 sales came from deep discounts .. the lunch sales were abysmal ..
I glad SFV has done well. I wonder how much of a boost its DLC sales contributes to Capcoms coffers?
All the other games also had deep discounts and most of them aren't in Capcom's top 10.

The launch sales didn't match their expectations due to some issues that the game had back then, but weren't abysmal. 99% of these important issues have been fixed thanks to a great amount of post launch new content, tweaks and fixes, something that also did help the game to keep a big userbase playing there.

They have been releasing a ton of DLC for this game during 4 years (and counting), which means they got a lot of money from DLC. This DLC/unlockables/free post-launch content also motivated players to come back to the game or to buy it. In Steam we can see the daily active users, and the new important content -specially new characters- caused peaks, the game now has more steady daily active users than ever, something that also did help to see that on its 5th year the game is still selling.

In addition to this, it also has been the driver of Capcom's focus on eSports that has been more and more important recently and where the company plans to invest more in the future. Big eSports events did help to promote the game, to motivate players to continue playing and also as a speaker to promote new content being added to the game. Like in the release of new characters, every year the game's active userbase spiked during EVO and Capcom Cup.

This game had a rocky start but seen in perspective it has been a clear success for Capcom and also did teach them important lessons for future similar games.

Yo, Remember Me sold 1.2m and.....where is my fucking sequel?

Tell Me Why DontNod is not working on sequel?
Game sales were too low to justify a sequel.

In addition to this, after many issues and flops Capcom had with different games and studios, some years ago Capcom decided to stop developing games in the west and focus more in Japanese studios instead and specially in-house.

This caused an important increase in quality and sales, so it's very likely that they will continue with their current strategy of developing stuff mostly in Japan, and specially in-house. They also have been hiring for this purpose.

I owned Dragons Dogma DA on PS4 for awhile, saw it dirt cheap on Steam so I bought it for PC as well, it is just one of those games in my backlog that I never get around to. need to try it out soon

Also, glad Capcom has mounted a nice comback the last few years

These numbers got me wondering if SF6 will be a PS5 exclusive? if 5 got to 4.5 million Just imagine a fully fleshed out campaign and a better launch for 6.

If SF5 launched in the state it is now, it'd would have doubled sales.
