The Capcom Showcase 2023 nicely caps off Summer Game Fest
Just when you thought the announcements were over, the Capcom Showcase 2023 is here to cap things off! The Japanese developer is celebrating its 40th anniversary this June, and it seems ready to celebrate in style. While the showcase isn’t quite the blowout we’d like, Switch owners and mobile users have a few fun things to look forward to. Just maybe don’t expect any new Resident Evil games.
The showcase is focused on titles from this year, including looks at the recently launched Street Fighter 6, Exoprimal, and the upcoming Dragon’s Dogma II. Sadly, there isn’t much for Switch and mobile owners to enjoy, but we do have a couple of fun announcements.
If you’re holding your breath for more Devil May Cry on Switch, or perhaps even some new Monster Huner, well, think again. What we do have though is a few highly requested ports, a demo you can play right now, and a new take on Mega Man for mobile. So, let us walk you through all the big Capcom announcements from this year’s show!
Let’s round up all the announcements from the Capcom Showcase 2023.
