Resident Evil 2 & Devil May Cry 5 "Indisputable Successes" - More IP Revivals & Remakes Planned

[Jawmuncher]

From the recent Capcom Integrated Report
Source: http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/data/pdf/annual/2019/annual_2019_01.pdf

"Our initiatives are to (1) strengthen digital sales, (2) bolster our title lineup through the full-scale execution of our 60-month and 52-week maps and (3) awaken dormant intellectual properties."
(As RE2 and DMC5 count as both sides of this coin for this FY, looks like we're in for another REmake and another IP Coming back for the next FY. My guess would be likely tied to either MS or PS next-gen unveiling).

Titles Outperforming Expectations (Since this was a worry due to the numbers not lining up with the typical AAA expectations)

DMC5 Reestablished as a Series (Bolds well for more content such as DMC5:SE and/or DMC6 not taking 11 years to happen)

Looks like Capcom has really found their stride when it comes to Division 1 and the future of their brands which still have a lot of fan fervor even when they're dormant. Hopefully it won't be much longer for my new Dino Crisis game, it's been long enough already.

This. A real one, not mobile gacha type of game.

 

[kadotsu]

Let me just for a moment think of a 3D Strider game with the production values of DMC.

...


Fine, all done, continue with doing not that.

 

[XaviConcept]

Once you get to the Breath of Fire's , Rival School's and Dino Crisis of the world I'll believe you, Capcom ;)

 

[LonestarZues]

It's time for Dino Crisis Remake. I tried playing the original recently and let me say it doesn't hold up.

 

[Deleted member 6233]

How about Little Nemo Capcom?

 

[Kewlmyc]

Dino Crisis that plays like RE6 please.

[BasilZero]

Good

Please do Breath of Fire revival and Darkstalkers too.

 

[defaltoption]

That's awesome, hopefully they'll tackle other IP with the same effort too. Can't wait for RE3 and even more the eventual RE4 remake on PS6 and Xbox 3/4ths

[SinCityAssassin]

Zack and Wiki pls.

 

[Neoxon]

Music to my fucking ears. It's good to see Devil May Cry get the comeback it deserves. Hopefully more Capcom IPs follow suit in the near future.

They probably mean the RE remakes, which makes sense given that RE3 is next in line for a remake.

 

[Deleted member 721]

breath of fire and megaman legends are the ones i want the most, but my hope is very small

 

[Taliax]

Any way a God Hand Remake could be considered?

 

[Strike]

Power Stone!

and Rival Schools/Project Justice

 

[DanteLinkX]

Capcom give us DMC5 SE addon/expansion/rerelease, we shall buy it again.

 

[BadWolf]

A Dino Crisis sequel/remake in RE engine would sell a lot.

I think somebody else also owns the license to Strider. Making it a bit more complex.

Would like to see some smaller budget spin-off action games from Capcom that utilize DMC5's engine.

 

[Richietto]

Mega Man X, Power Stone, Breath of Fire, Rival Schools, Dino Crises. Bring back the second age of Capcom STYLE.

 

[Deleted member 3815]

Give me Viewtiful Joe 1+2 HD on the Switch with subtitles for deaf/Hard of Hearing and I will buy it.

 

[Deleted member 1839]

Another Lost Planet in the vein of 2 please. 2 itself was fantastic to point where it's my favorite game from Capcom and one of my all time favorites. There was such much possibilities that I hoped they expanded in the 3 game.......but nah, that shit didn't happen.

 

[RochHoch]

So how about that Ace Attorney?

It's not like it even needs to be revived, they just refused to localize a good chunk of the games and have been radio silent for a while now.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

Dino Crisis that plays like RE6 please.

[supernormal]

What does this mean for Onimusha?

 

[s y]

DMC5 SE for next gen launch pls.

Nero, no dante/vergil DMC6 pls.

 

[Poimandres]

I'd like a new Ghouls and Ghosts, and a new Lost Planet, a new Powerstone, a new Rival Schools, a new Dark Stalkers, a new Dino Crisis urghhhh so many IP's!

 

[AshenOne]

The PC version of Monster Hunter: World has also achieved success as a Global Brand.

I do wonder what this really means...

 

[PlanetSmasher]

How about a new Breath of Fire?

 

[ditusjack]

Well i think you know what time it is then right Capcom?

 

[BadWolf]

I do wonder what this really means...

That it sold a ton and grew the series outside of Japan.

 

[thekonamicode]

I'm here to stan for Zack & Wiki.

 

[Okabe]

So....what Im hearing is everyone wants a DMC2 remake yes ?

 

[L Thammy]

aww yeah gotcha force 2 confirmed

 

[ultracal31]

Bring back Clock tower

 

[Champion]

Where are the new IP though? :(

 

[YourFriendLevi]

Make Dragon's Dogma 2 and turn Lost Planet into a sci fi Monster Hunter World / non-asymmetrical Evolve

 

[IsaOfTheWorlds]

Even though I'm a massive fan of JRPG's, I couldn't bring myself to play more than a few hours of the original Breath of Fire. Subplots just happened and were over and nothing felt like it had any impact. The pacing hurt it a lot and it made it hard for me to care much about doing anything.

That being said, though, I know they're pretty popular for an un-popular JRPG series so I hope the series gets brought back (hopefully fully remade) so I can give enjoying the series another chance.
