Capcom has made a modest upward adjustment to its FY25 financial projections, primarily due to the performance of Resident Evil: Requiem. The company now anticipates net sales of ¥195.3 billion for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, representing a 2.8% increase from the previous forecast of ¥190 billion. Net profit attributable to owners of the parent is revised to ¥54.5 billion, up 6.9% from ¥51 billion.
Resident Evil: Requiem contributed significantly, surpassing 7 million units sold since its February release, with initial sales 60% higher than Resident Evil Village in the US. This success spurred catalog sales, including boosts to Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Village via discounts and promotions. Monster Hunter Wilds remains the dominant force in catalog revenue, comprising a substantial portion of ongoing digital sales.
Operating income for the early fiscal period increased by 75.1%, supported by Resident Evil and Street Fighter titles, alongside improvements in Amusement and Arcade segments. Catalog titles are expected to account for 85.2% of total sales. These metrics reflect steady demand for Capcom's established franchises.
Reactions on X have been procedural, with accounts like Geoff Keighley and REBiohazardNews relaying the figures without notable variance. Investors will await subsequent quarterly data to evaluate trajectory.
