Resident Evil Re:Verse is shutting down in June

Capcom’s mainline Resident Evil titles have been for the most part highly praised across the board, with the publisher continuing to maintain this string of quality across its successive entries. That said, RE’s multiplayer spin-off titles have struggled in this regard – with their latest effort (Resident Evil Re:Verse) set to be shut down in just a few months’ time.

Making the announcement on their website, Capcom confirmed that Resident Evil Re:Verse will be officially shutting down in a couple months time, writing:

“Thank you for playing Resident Evil Re:Verse. This is to inform you that service will be ending for Resident Evil Re:Verse, which comes packaged with a purchase of Resident Evil Village for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, or Steam. The application and all of its related DLC will no longer be available for download or purchase.”

From the 3rd of March, the game will be removed from digital storefronts, meaning no new players will be able to check Re:Verse out. Additionally, at the same time all of the game’s DLC will also be removed from online stores.

Re:Verse Shut

Finally, on the 29th of June, the service will officially fully shut down, with no one being able to play the game anymore, regardless of whether you previously added it to your library.

Speaking on this end-of-service, the team explained that “Resident Evil Re:Verse was developed in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Resident Evil series, and your overwhelming support for the game has far exceeded our expectations since the time of its release. Now that we've reached a new turning point for the series, we feel that Resident Evil Re:Verse has served its original, celebratory purpose admirably.”

Whether this is the true reason for its closure or not, Resident Evil Re:Verse was far from the greatest RE experience, and so it reaching its end-of-life is not too surprising. Hopefully a more comprehensive multiplayer RE game is in the works.

KitGuru says: What did you think of the game? Was it worth your time? How would you like to see Capcom approach future multiplayer Resident Evil games? Let us know down below.

Monster Hunter Wilds standalone PC benchmark tool now available

A couple weeks ago, Capcom announced that they would be releasing a standalone PC benchmark tool for the much-anticipated and upcoming Monster Hunter Wilds. As part of the latest Capcom Spotlight showcase, the publisher has now released the tool on Steam.

Available now through the Monster Hunter Wilds store page on Steam, all those planning to get the game when it releases at the end of the month can test out their rigs to see how the upcoming title performs, prior to spending any money unnecessarily.

Monster Hunter Wilds Benchmark

Even if you took part in the first open beta test, you might want to give this new benchmark tool a go as it should more accurately reflect how Wilds will perform at launch due to being based on a newer build.

With the first open beta for Monster Hunter Wilds seeing almost half a million concurrent players on Steam alone, it’s safe to say that millions of fans are eagerly anticipating the game, and so knowing ahead of time whether it will run smoothly or not is welcome to see.

Devil May Cry 5 hits new major sales milestone

Following a lengthy hiatus, the Devil May Cry series returned in a big way with DMC 5 in 2019 – quickly becoming the best-selling entry in the series. While we have yet to get a new game since, interest in Dante and co. has not waned, with the latest Devil May Cry 5 having now officially sold 10 million copies.

Every quarter, Capcom publicly publishes its updated list of ‘Platinum Titles’ – games which have sold over 1 million units. Sharing the latest stats across their franchises, the publisher has now revealed that as of the 31st of December 2024, 2019’s Devil May Cry (in combination with its Special Edition remaster / expansion) has sold 10 million copies, making it by far the best-selling entry in the entire franchise.

For context, the second-best-selling title is 2013’s DmC Devil May Cry which pushed a total of 3.1 million copies – 1/3rd of DMC 5’s total sales.

Devil May Cry

Unfortunately, as mentioned, there’s been no new activity in the DMC space ever since Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition.

That said, with how much of a success the latest entry continues to be, hopefully the chefs over at Capcom are cooking up something great. We will have to continue to wait and see.

KitGuru says: Are you surprised by the success of DMC 5? How much longer will we have to wait for a new Devil May Cry? What would you want from the next entry? Let us know down below.

Mega Man 11 becomes the best-selling entry in the series

Despite being an undeniable icon in the video games space, Capcom’s Mega Man franchise has never been a massive seller. While this somewhat remains the case, it seems Rock Man is having a slight reassurance with the latest Mega Man 11 now becoming the best-selling entry in the series.

Every quarter, Capcom publicly publishes its updated list of ‘Platinum Titles’ – games which have sold over 1 million units. The publisher has now released its latest figures, revealing that the latest entry in the Mega Man series – 2018’s Mega Man 11 – has surpassed the ‘Mega Man Legacy Collection’ to become the best-selling entry in the series.

Even so, the numbers are relatively modest when compared to Capcom’s other contemporary franchises, with Mega Man 11 just selling north of 2 million copies – 400k more than the aforementioned Legacy Collection.

Mega Man 11 Series

As stated, Mega Man 11 is the latest entry in the series, however in the years since its launch we have seen further collections released to great success, including the ‘Battle Network Legacy Collection‘ which managed to shift 1 million units in its first two weeks back in 2023.

Still, with what will likely be Capcom’s biggest game of all time (Monster Hunter Wilds) set to come out later this month, the publisher’s focus is unlikely to be on Mega Man at the moment. Hopefully some time over the next couple years maybe.

KitGuru says: Are you surprised by Mega Man’s relatively low sales? Will it ever be one of Capcom’s biggest franchises once again? Could we see a Mega Man 12 one day? Let us know your thoughts down below.

Capcom to host a Spotlight Stream next week, featuring Monster Hunter Wilds and more

Monster Hunter Wilds is almost here, with Capcom having recently announced the second and final open beta test set to take place before its launch next month. While we don’t yet have a date for this beta, Capcom has now announced a Spotlight Stream set to go live next week – featuring the much-anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds, Onimusha and more.

Taking to Twitter, the official Capcom USA page announced their next Nintendo Direct-styled online showcase (Capcom Spotlight) writing:

“Tune in live on Feb. 4 at 2pm PT for Capcom doubleheader! Join us for a 20-minute Capcom Spotlight followed immediately by a 15-minute Monster Hunter Wilds Showcase!”

The general Capcom Spotlight will feature new information and updates on Onimusha: Way of the Sword; Street Fighter 6; Capcom Fighting Collection 2; and MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics.

The Monster Hunter Wilds presentation meanwhile will unsurprisingly feature a brand new trailer, alongside details on the previously-announced second beta test.

Typically with Capcom Spotlights, what you see is what you get, and so don’t expect any major surprise announcements. Still, it is exciting to finally be hearing more about the second beta test for Monster Hunter Wilds – and given the fact that the game is under a month away, its arrival could be imminent.

KitGuru says: Will you tune into the Capcom Spotlight? When do you think beta 2 will go live? What do you hope to see from Onimusha? Let us know down below.

Monster Hunter Wilds becomes the most wishlisted upcoming game on Steam

Late last year, Capcom hosted a beta for their upcoming Monster Hunter Wilds – amassing more than half a million concurrent players on Steam alone. With the game just one month out from release, it seems the hype has reached an all-time high, as Monster Hunter Wilds has now become the most wishlisted upcoming game on the platform.

Going to Steam’s ‘most wishlisted’ section sees Capcom’s upcoming Monster Hunter Wilds sitting pretty in first place, overtaking the years long hype for Hollow Knight Silksong as well as Valve’s upcoming multiplayer project Deadlock. Rounding out the top 5 are Civilization VII and Elden Ring Nightreign.

Monster Hunter Wilds Steam

Ever since the release of Monster Hunter World back in 2017, the franchise has quickly grown to become one of Capcom’s biggest, with the aforementioned World becoming the publisher's best selling game of all time at more than 20 million copies sold – and its follow-up ‘Rise’ taking second place with 16 million sales.

Given the ever-increasing hype and awareness for the Monster Hunter franchise, Capcom could have a record breaking hit on their hands when Wilds releases on the 28th of February.

Capcom’s iOS ports continue to underperform as Resident Evil 2 brings in just $102k

Apple took a big swing with their iPhone 15 series of phones, introducing a renewed focus on gaming with the announcement of iOS ports for a number of major AAA titles. Unfortunately, all of these games, including multiple Resident Evil releases, underperformed pretty significantly. It seems little has changed in the months since, with Capcom’s latest mobile port for RE2 Remake reportedly bringing in just over $100k.

As reported by MobileGamer.biz, the latest AAA title to come to iOS – Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 Remake – has brought in just over $100,000 since it launched on the platform back in December of last year.

According to the publication, during the game’s first 4 weeks on sale (in which it was discounted heavily to just $10), RE2 Remake brought in a total of $95K from 9500 purchases (via Appmagic).

Resident Evil iOS

In the week since, the game has seen these modest sales figures drop significantly, with the return to its full $40 price tag having tempted just 175 additional players – for an extra $7k in revenue.

While it’s impressive to see these modern AAA games running on a smartphone, it seems as though a majority of players aren’t comfortable enough yet to switch to mobile as their gaming platform of choice. Perhaps in time this will change.

KitGuru says: Are you surprised by the performance of these ports? Do you think Capcom expected higher sales for these games? Could AAA gaming be viable on a smartphone? Let us know your thoughts down below.

Capcom travaille sur des « licences dormantes » | Le retour de Dino Crisis ?

En marge de l’annonce du prochain jeu Onimusha, Capcom s’est exprimé sur le retour de ses anciennes licences.

Il faut souligner que l’éditeur est en forme puisqu’il a également révélé une suite à Okami.

En parallèle, Capcom s’est exprimé sur l’avenir et le plan est clair : « dans le but de sortir des titres majeurs régulièrement chaque année, nous nous concentrons à réactiver des licences dormantes qui n’ont pas eu de lancement dernièrement »

Difficile donc de ne pas penser à des franchises comme Dino Crisis, Breath of Fire ou encore Viewtiful Joe pour revenir sur le devant de la scène.
