Capcom has been thriving for quite a while, revealing eight consecutive years of record financial achievements – and, naturally, it’s been crafting some memorable games in the process.
The company is now set to establish a new base in Osaka, with construction anticipated to be finished by 2027. This information comes from remarks made by the firm during a recent financial meeting, as cited by Gamebiz.jp.
While the firm already possesses and manages several offices in Osaka, this upcoming building will enable it to increase its workforce by 100 employees annually, which will certainly empower it to vastly enhance its operations.
A primary focus for the company is to bolster its impressive RE Engine, which currently powers a variety of internally developed games, including Monster Hunter and Resident Evil. The organization is enthusiastic about refining its proprietary codebase and augmenting it with new technologies and features.
It’s a favorable period for Capcom, with Monster Hunter Wilds just launching and Street Fighter 6 reigning supreme in the fighting genre. Anticipate a new Resident Evil in the years ahead to further fuel its development.
