Capcom’s COO, Haruhiro Tsujimoto, has officially announced that the PC is a very important platform for the Japanese publisher, something that obviously does not really surprise us. In the past few years, Capcom has been steadily improving the PC versions of its titles and after the huge PC sales of Monster Hunter World and Resident Evil 2 Remake, Capcom appears to be willing to further expand its PC sales.
As Haruhiro Tsujimoto stated (Google-translated as… well… we don’t speak Japanese).
“From the viewpoint of promoting digital strategy, expansion of PC platform spread can not be overlooked. The sales ratio of the PC versions in our main titles has been improving every year, and we will strive to further expand sales as an important platform.”
Capcom has not revealed the PC sales for Resident Evil 2 Remake, however the Japanese company stated a while back that Monster Hunter World was a big success on the PC.
Devil May Cry 5 will be the next big game that Capcom will release on both the PC and current-gen consoles. The game is powered by the RE Engine so here is hoping that it will run as smooth as Resident Evil 2 Remake, and that it will be as friendly to mouse+keyboard owners as all the previous third-person Capcom games have been so far.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
