But how does this gigantic brawler actually play? Well, that question's...

News Capcom's Bringing More Resident Evil to PlayStation VR
You are dead
Resident Evil 7 is considered, by many, to be one of the best experiences that can be had on Sony’s PlayStation VR headset.

News Here's How Resident Evil: Revelations Looks on PS4
The first one, to be clear
Capcom refuses to rest until you can play every version of Resident Evil on the PlayStation 4, and… Y’know, we were going to finish this sentence with something snarky, but we suppose there are worse things the publisher could do with its time. Resident Evil: Revelations (the 3DS one, not its superior successor) is the...

Due out this fiscal year
Oh Capcom, you tease.

Despite selling over 3.5 million units so far
Resident Evil 7: Biohazard has failed to meet the sales expectations of publisher Capcom, the firm's latest financial report has revealed.

News Street Fighter V Scores Capcom Cup 2017 Content As Single Player Wilts
Revenue to go towards tournament prize fund
Can we safely say that Capcom is all in on e-sports at this point, and won't be responding to the complaints that single player fans had with Street Fighter V? Probably, because the game continues to bloat in content, but virtually all of it seems aimed at the more competitive players enjoying it online...

Simply Redfield
Capcom won't rest until you can play every single Resident Evil game ever made on the PlayStation 4, and next up in its quest appears to be Dreamcast entry Resident Evil Code Veronica.

News Street Fighter V Still Kinda Sucks, But Capcom Pro Tour's Back
Yay?
A year later, Street Fighter V is still very much a shadow of the game that it should be.

Well, not that familiar
Chris Redfield will star in Resident Evil 7's free Not a Hero story expansion this spring, though he won't look like you remember him.

Review Resident Evil 7: Biohazard - Banned Footage Vol. 2 (PS4)
Cards against humanity
Oh, Capcom – why, oh why did you cut Resident Evil 7: Biohazard - Banned Footage Vol. 2 from the main game? Banned Footage Vol. 1 served up a couple of quality VHS tapes, and its successor – launching less than a month after the core campaign – is arguably better. The DLC is cementing the survival horror as a modern...
News Deep Down Once Again Trademarked By Capcom
Here we are again
Capcom's filed a trademark for the words Deep Down in North America, prompting some optimistic onlookers to wonder whether the publisher has anything new to share.

Review Resident Evil 7: Biohazard - Banned Footage Vol. 1 (PS4)
Don't let the bed bugs bite
Much like the core campaign, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard's first DLC drop is a pleasant surprise.
