Capcom has been thriving for quite some time, proclaiming eight consecutive years of unprecedented financial outcomes – and, naturally, it’s been delivering some remarkable games throughout this journey.
Currently, the entity aims to establish a new headquarters in Osaka, with completion anticipated by 2027. This information comes from remarks made during a recent financial conference call, as noted by Gamebiz.jp.
The organization already possesses and manages several offices in Osaka, but this new facility will enable it to enhance its workforce by 100 individuals annually, which will undoubtedly allow it to considerably boost its activities.
One aspect it seeks to fortify is its outstanding RE Engine, which already drives multiple internally produced games, including Monster Hunter and Resident Evil. The firm is enthusiastic about refining its proprietary codebase and enhancing it with new technology and functionalities.
It’s an opportune moment for Capcom, then, with Monster Hunter Wilds just launching and Street Fighter 6 continuing to reign supreme in the fighting genre. Anticipate a new Resident Evil in the forthcoming years to further stimulate its growth.
