What's Happening?
Capcom has released an updated list of its best-selling games, showcasing the strong performance of its fighting game titles. Street Fighter 6 has sold 5.2 million copies in two years, surpassing its predecessor and becoming Capcom's 16th best-selling game. Other titles like Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and Ultra Street Fighter 4 have also seen sales increases. However, the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection has not yet reached the 1 million sales mark.
Why It's Important?
The success of Street Fighter 6 and other titles underscores Capcom's strong position in the fighting game market. The sales figures reflect the enduring popularity of the Street Fighter franchise and Capcom's ability to innovate and attract new players. This success could influence future game development and marketing strategies, potentially leading to more investments in the fighting game genre.
What's Next?
Capcom may continue to focus on expanding its fighting game portfolio, leveraging the success of Street Fighter 6 to explore new titles or updates to existing games. The company might also consider strategies to boost sales of underperforming collections like the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection.
