Before it's out
Forthcoming fighter Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite has had its price cut – before it even releases. Amazon’s knocked about 25 per cent off the pre-order price of Capcom’s upcoming crossover brawler, which could just be a promotion, but probably suggests that the publisher is desperate to invigorate interest in the title...

Fortunately, the former appears to be true; World is a proper creature-crushing release, as evidenced by...

Rumour Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite's Roster Readies Up
Who's made the cut?
Injustice 2 may be the king of the comic book brawler right now, but Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite will attempt to steal the crown from NetherRealm Studios later this year.

News Is Monster Hunter Finally Coming to the PS4?
Rumours say so, but are they accurate?
Who doesn’t love a 4chan rumour? Despite the generally dreadful track record of the infamous message board, legit leaks do sometimes crop up on the site, so you can’t always disregard them outright.

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. It’s exciting, then, that Capcom is bringing more Biohazard to virtual reality; less exciting is the fact that Vendetta Z is merely a free experience designed to promote the upcoming CGI movie, Resident Evil...
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...

News Capcom Is Currently Working on a 'Major' Unannounced Game
Due out this fiscal year
Oh Capcom, you tease. Buried in the company's latest business overview document, the publisher mentions a "major title" that it plans on releasing before the end of this fiscal year - that's before the 31st March 2018, in case you're not one for technical terms. Now, this could be absolutely anything, but the wording at...

Publisher won't repeat same mistake
Street Fighter V is a great game, there's just nowhere near enough of it.

News Resident Evil 7 Falls Short of Capcom's Sales Expectations
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...
News Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite Adds Hulk, Rocket Raccoon, Chris Redfield, More
Mash-up due out 19th September
The ultimate battle between comic books and Capcom will reignite once more from 19th September, as Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite has been dated.

Go tell Aunt Rhody
Resident Evil 7's free DLC pack has been pushed back until an undisclosed later date.

Review The Disney Afternoon Collection (PS4)
The collection that flaps in the night
The early-to-late nineties were a renaissance for Disney: the company was not only producing some of the most memorable and innovative films it would ever produce but also releasing spectacular original animated television series.

News Capcom's Quest to Get Every Resident Evil Game Ever on PS4 Continues
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. That's not stopping its maker from forging ahead with Capcom Pro Tour 2017, though – the Champions League of fighting game competitions. Or something. We were going to explain the qualification process here, but it's so complicated that we're just going...
News A Familiar Face Returns in Resident Evil 7's Free DLC Not a Hero
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.

Yeah, it's coming thick and fast, isn't it? This...

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. Comprising of a mismatch of modes and bonus content, Banned Footage Vol. 1 isn't the most consistent expansion that you'll ever encounter, but it is one of the better ones – even if its proximity to the main game will leave...

We should point out that this number reflects the sum of units that...
Poll Should Resident Evil Remain First-Person for Now?
The million dollar question
For many ardent fans, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard's switch to first-person proved a bigger fright than the game itself – but as reviews proved this week, the change works better than it has any right to.

Madhouse
There are three different difficulty settings for you to choose from in Resident Evil 7, but which one should you pick?

News Resident Evil 7 Sharpens Up the Scares on PS4 Pro
Sony's new hardware leveraged to great effect
Resident Evil 7 is a stunning game. Running at a near locked 60 frames-per-second, the release has some ridiculously good lighting, which makes its Louisiana setting sing on the PlayStation 4. But the title's also making use of the PS4 Pro in some pretty positive ways, as this comparison between the two...
Feature Is Resident Evil 7 Any Good with PlayStation VR?
Back to the Kitchen
Resident Evil 7 is something of a rarity: it's a major PlayStation 4 title which can be played in virtual reality from start-to-finish using PlayStation VR. There are very few cut corners here – aside from the pre-rendered cut-scenes which annoyingly play in Cinematic Mode – and Capcom deserves credit for that; at a time when...

Bayou hazard
Ever since BSAA beefcake Chris Redfield exacted grievous bodily harm on a boulder, the Resident Evil franchise has been on a bit of a downward spiral.
