Forums - Gaming Discussion - Capcom making PC its main platform going forward

G2ThaUNiT on 04 October 2021

I don't think I ever would've expected news like this from the likes of Capcom, but I'm all for it! The RE Engine runs BEAUTIFULLY on PC!!! I've played Resident Evil Biohazard, Village, 2&3 Remakes, along with Devil May Cry 5 on my pretty decent rig, and it's amazing the graphical fidelity, lighting, along with the insane performance these games get. Village did have issues I will say, though. 

I can't wait to see what Monster Hunter Rise will look like running on PC with this engine! First game in the franchise to be on the engine too I believe.

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

If they want to do that, they need to start making sure they don't have the stuttery nonsense that was RE Village which took 4 months to fix and DF had to rant about it. Also they should have simultaneous releases with MH and other games instead of delaying the PC version.

Still, good to see they are committing to PC. Just goes to show how the platform continues to grow.

curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.

What does "main platform" even mean?

That is a great question lol we'll have to wait and see over the next few years worth of game releases from Capcom to actually find out.

The way I interpret it though is Capcom will make the PC version first and foremost for all their new games and then port the games to console. Which it has been the other way around up until this time.

I highly doubt a game like monster hunter (rise)will sell a lot more on pc then even the switch alone(no idea why the game is not on xbox and playstation .

I think he ment it more like they want to make sure both console and the pc version of there games come out the same time and same quallity.

Nintendo paid like six million dollar for the console exclusive.
