Capcom's latest earnings report has revealed more than just how well the publisher has done in the last financial year.
Capcom has had a terrific year in 2023, launching some fantastic games. There's been the survival horror title Resident Evil 4 remake, the multiplayer third-person shooter Exoprimal, and of course the superb fighting game Street Fighter 6. Thankfully, it looks like the publisher isn't prepared to take a break anytime soon.
In the Japanese Q&A section towards the bottom of Capcom's financial report, there are some hints as to what fans can expect in the upcoming few months. In response to a question concerning the company's full-year new title sales plan, a representative points towards the release of Gyakuten Saiban 456 Odouki Selection (that's theApollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy) «in addition to currently unannounced major titles», as part of a plan to expand sales.
There are numerous franchises that could benefit from new titles. You have Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, and a personal favorite, Ace Attorney. However, there is no more information as of yet concerning what new title could pop up before March 2024.
When asked about information concerning releases related to the upcoming 20th anniversary of the Monster Hunter series, all a representative could say was that «there is nothing to report at this time».
The Q&A also goes on to cover the introduction of games to the iPhone 15 as well as the Steam Deck, and how it has affected the publisher. «This is part of our company's basic multi-platform strategy. We aim to maximize the number of users by supporting a variety of hardware», a representative said. «There will not be a major impact (on PC sales thanks to Steam Deck). We will continue to promote pricing measures and aim to expand sales globally.»
It seems that an impressive year for Capcom isn't enough, as the company is clearly gearing up to take 2024 by storm.

I keep Caves of Qud and Dwarf Fortress in the same mental filing cabinet. Both consist of a very thin layer of graphics (though thicker now in Dwarf Fortress' case) spread atop a fathomless clockwork of interlocking gameplay systems and strange simulations. They are, if you ask me, two of the best and most impressive games ever made, and now Qud has gotten even wider, deeper, and weirder.

It’s great news for fans of The Witcher 3, and especially those who like creating and using mods. Over on Twitter, the official Witcher account has confirmed that a mod editor is currently in development for the PC version of CD Projekt Red’s eternally popular 2015 role-playing game.
CD Projekt have announced that they're working on a free mod editor for The Witcher 3, allowing you to write entire new quests for grizzly Geralt, or just make him walk around with no trousers on, which he spends every other cutscene doing anyway. There are already many mods for the venerable fantasy RPG, of course - the options range from mods that give you Henry Cavill's face to mods that simulate the effects of long Covid to raise awareness - but the editor should make life easier for the internet's Geralt-whisperers. Better late than never.

Compared to what we’ve come to expect from Sony where its yearly output of single player games is concerned, 2023 has been a light year, with the recently released Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 being its only major release this year. With no major single player release officially confirmed for 2024 either – with the exception of Team Ninja’s Rise of the Ronin – should we expect next year to be a lighter one as well?
