Capcom takes advantage of next-gen consoles
Capcom is currently at the heart of a major restructuring, which falls just in time for the release of consoles from Sony and Microsoft. Editor Dead Rising 3 was in a rather difficult financial situation in April with earnings down sharply compared to 2012.
In April, during the presentation of its annual results, Capcom made frown. With a lower net profit of 55% initially forecast for fiscal year 2013, sales are also far below expectations, the publisher feared for his future, and wanted to turn the tide before it is too late . 74 million dollars were incurred in restructuring to "fully review the strategy" of the company.
For 2014, the company had reviewed its ambitions concerning its sales volumes to decline from 14 million units to 13 million, while reversing the profit curve, since the latter should simply double. Partly thanks to next-generation consoles, which allow the editor to question and try new things.
"I think when a new generation console develops, there are lots of new things happening then. Deep Down on PS4, Dead Rising 3 on Xbox One, the attempt to give birth to Strider ... Capcom has made some mistakes. We learn, we really try to make quality content. I can say that Capcom has always emphasized quality. This message may not always be obvious does not appear, but from the inside, I can promise you that all decisions are taken Capcom to try to offer the best possible content, "said Mike Jones, producer studio Capcom Vancouver to Official Xbox Magazine
However at present, the company does not yet seem to have decided which path to follow to achieve its objectives, and nothing is set in stone. The producer says "Capcom is in a period of adjustment and growth. The rules have changed, the new consoles come out ... There are discussions about our portfolio of games for the next-gen, mobile, paperless media and that sort of thing. They [Editor's note: Capcom] are all aware of our history, our strong licenses, and they absolutely want to do the best content for the players, ".
For the moment, the publisher can count on Dead Rising 3 for the Christmas sales. Although opinions are mixed on the title side of our colleagues, it should take advantage of the lack of competition on the Microsoft console to get a place, pending new franchises next year.
