Capcom has revealed during its recent earnings report that fiscal year 2025 has been incredibly successful for it. The company has boasted of this being it the 12th consecutive year where it has seen growth in its profits, as well as it being the year with the highest amount of consolidated sales and operating income in its history. Going forward, Capcom is forecasting sales of 54 million units across its various franchises for fiscal year 2026.
In its report (courtesy of X user MauroNL), the company has also revealed new sales figures for its biggest franchises. The Resident Evil franchise now sits at 170 million units sold. Monster Hunter is second, boasting 120 million units. Street Fighter has 56 million units sold, Mega Man has 43 million units, and Devil May Cry has 33 million units. Along with this, the company has also confirmed sales figures for some of its less famous farnnchises, including Okami with 4.6 million units, Onimusha with 8.7 million, and Ace Attorney with 13 million units.
Monster Hunter Wilds – the most recent release by Capcom – has seen incredible success right from its release. Back in March, the company had revealed that the game had sold more than 10 million copies in its first month alone. For some context, the previous game in the franchise, Monster Hunter Rise, needed an entire year to reach the same milestone, while Monster Hunter World took even longer: five years.
More recently, Monster Hunter Wilds kicked off its Blossomdance Festival, bringing with it a host of free and paid content. As part of the Blossomdance Festival, players will be able to see new Spring-themed decorations in the Grand Hub, where the Diva can also be seen performing a new song to celebrate the festival. There are also new events that offer new armour sets for players to craft.
When it comes to larger updates, Monster Hunter Wilds got Title Update 1 back in April. The update introduced Mizutsune as the newest addition to the game’s roster, complete with a host of new armours and weapons for players to craft. The update also introduced the Grand Hub where players can hang out between hunts and take part in various activities.
Monster Hunter Wilds is available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. For more details, check out our review. If you’re wondering about why the title has been so popular, here are our thoughts.
