When zombies aren't enough
After an impossibly long period of hype, the October release of Resident Evil 6 seems to be relatively close.

Capcom’s heavily stylised Lost Planet spin-off EX Troopers continues to look absolutely sensational.

Presidential assassinations
Capcom’s released footage of the entirety of Leon S. Kennedy’s section from the Resident Evil 6 E3 demo.

The atmosphere certainly...

Beautiful (updated: now with trailer)
PS2 classic Okami is set to get a visit from the god of 1080p, as Capcom's announced Okami HD for PSN.

In Japan it's a retail release, but players in the West...
News RE: Operation Raccoon City Nets Much Needed Patch
Healing wounds
Slant Six’s rotten squad-based shooter Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City has been patched, publisher Capcom has announced.

Gatecrasher
Most people wouldn’t even dare try to enter a club if they weren’t on the guest list, but Dante is no ordinary person.

News Capcom Trademarks Remember Me
Don't forget
Ordinarily we’d skip on this story like a plate of smelly socks, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Japanese publisher Capcom has filed a US trademark for the title Remember Me.

News Street Fighter Collector's Set Dragon Punches onto PS3
Shoryuken
Capcom may be complaining about genre cannibalism, but that’s not stopping the Japanese publisher from releasing another boxed Street Fighter product.

News Devil May Cry Reboot Sobs into 2013
Sticks and stones
Can you see what you’ve done to poor Dante, you nasty lot? You should probably apologise for all those nasty things you’ve said. Sure, Ninja Theory’s boy-band interpretation of the classic protagonist might not be the one you grew up with, but that doesn’t give you the right to say horrible things about his appearance in...
News First EX Troopers Trailer Looks... Awesome
Seriously
You could be forgiven for reading yesterday’s EX Troopers announcement with a cynical mindset. The Lost Planet franchise — upon which the spin-off is based — has never really lived up to its potential, and the details provided as part of the Famitsu report didn’t sound particularly engaging. But it turns out we just needed actual...

Poisoned chalice
Capcom has blamed genre cannibalism as the reason for Street Fighter X Tekken’s less than stellar sales.

The publisher itself has launched three versions of Street Fighter...

News Dragon's Dogma Fires Up Online Quests
Ur it
Capcom's upcoming Dragon's Dogma is a solo-only experience, but that doesn't mean it hasn't got intriguing online capabilities too.

Essentially multiple players and their parties can tackle the giant beast asynchronously, their attacks...
News RE: Operation Raccoon City's Sales Top 2 Million
Brand awareness
Slant Six’s rotten squad-based zombie spin-off Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City has sold over 2 million units worldwide.

Preview Dragon's Dogma - The Sleeper Hit of 2012?
It's got scale
You'd think there'd be more excitement for Dragon's Dogma. Headed by staff responsible for Devil May Cry and Resident Evil, and with interest in RPGs at an all-time high thanks to Skyrim, the upcoming action RPG has generated very little heat in the past year: the game's official Twitter account has around 700 followers, and if not...

Popping heads
As if there was any doubt about its inclusion, Capcom has revealed a bunch of Resident Evil 6 pre-order bonuses which confirm the return of the brilliant score-attack mode, Mercenaries.

News Resident Evil 6's Premium Edition Costs a Whopping $1300
Sell your grandma
Video game collector’s editions have gradually got more elaborate (and expensive) over the past five years — but Resident Evil 6’s Japan-only Premium Edition sets a whole new precedent.

News Resident Evil 6 Shuffles Forward to October Release
Cites "tasty autumn brains"
Zombies don't like fire, but they're not too fond of the cold either, which could go some way to explaining why Capcom's brought its big Christmas title Resident Evil 6 forward by nearly two months to early October. Previously set for release in late November, the game's now due for 2nd October, meaning it'll be among the...

The embargo on information from Capcom's recent Captivate 2012 hasn't even ended yet and we already know there'll be a Lost Planet 3 coming to PS3 in 2013. The game is being developed by Spark Unlimited, the team responsible for Turning Point: Fall of Liberty and Legendary. It might not have the best pedigree, but Blue Castle Games...
News Grit Your Teeth Through Free RE: Operation Raccoon City DLC
There's a catch
As our Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City review established last month, Slant Six’s squad-based spin-off isn’t exactly the most polished entry in Capcom’s traditionally high-quality horror series. But if you’re enjoying the title regardless, you might be, ahem, thrilled to learn that there’s some free DLC on the way...
News Dante Does His Thing in Devil May Cry HD Launch Trailer
Bleached bombshell
We don’t advise Dante loyalists watch this Devil May Cry HD Collection launch trailer.
