Capcom has released the 2025 edition of its annual integrated report, confirming some plans about the company’s development projects and long-term goals. In the report, Capcom COO Haruhiro Tsujimoto confirmed that Mega Man, Devil May Cry, and Ace Attorney are key IPs that will “expand” with new releases, remakes, and ports to new hardware—likely alluding to Nintendo Switch 2, for example. Capcom wants to grow these series, including Devil May Cry, into “core IPs” like Street Fighter and Monster Hunter.
The relevant excerpt from the report can be read below from page 28:
“At Capcom, we aim to sustain our KPI of 10% or better annual operating profit growth along with our long-term goal of annual software sales of 100 million units. To improve our chance of success, we are working to resolve business challenges, issue by issue. Our efforts are focused on core IP such as the Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, and Street Fighter franchises, and mapping out mainline series entries and sequels, remakes, new IP, and ports of content to the latest hardware. We consistently release two to three major new titles each year, but recognize the need to grow our pipeline going forward.
Capcom owns a wealth of globally popular brands, such as Mega Man, Devil May Cry, and Ace Attorney. We aim to expand our user base and improve our performance through new releases, remakes, and ports of titles in these series to new hardware. By enhancing brand power and cultivating loyal fan bases, we will grow these into core IPs.
