Capcom has announced that its full-year earnings forecast has been revised and increased due to the success of its recent releases, which include Dragon's Dogma 2 and Street Fighter 6.

The details:

  • The publisher confirmed the revision of its forecast in a new statement, raising its net sales forecast by 8.9% from 140,000 million JPY to 152,400 million JPY and its net income by 8.3% from 40,000 JPY to 43,300 million JPY.

  • According to Capcom, the commercial success of Street Fighter 6 following its June release and Dragon's Dogma 2 in Q4 has resulted in increased sales of other games in both franchises, causing the publisher to expect higher earnings than originally planned.

  • The company has yet to release updated sales figures for the titles, but it has been confirmed that Dragon's Dogma 2 sold 2.5 million units in its first few weeks and Street Fighter 6 sold three million by January 2024. Capcom's list of platinum-certified games also suggests that previous Monster Hunter and Resident Evil games have continued to sell well.
