Capcom Promises More Focus On PC Gaming

In a post of the Capcom Unity blog, Capcom U.S. corporate officer and senior vice president Christian Svensson assured PC gamers that the Japanese giant is going to take PC gaming more seriously from now on.

Svensson revealed that there has been a push for PC gaming within Capcom over the years has been led by a select few people, including the company's European COO, David Reeves and our head of Capcom Germany, Michael Auer and others.

"I'm happy to say that those few select people are getting increasing support from a broader array of stakeholders globally," he announced gleefully. "… As we continue to expand our businesses in Russia, China, Korea and Brazil, the PC becomes increasingly important as it is the primary platform in those territories."

"PC gaming's profile is growing at Capcom," Svensson added. "Both the US and our European teams continue to request PC SKUs for new titles. We've got more titles coming with PC versions than ever before (e.g. Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, etc.). At green light meetings, our Japanese COO and the head of the consumer and online software business increasingly request a PC version if one is not being proposed at the outset of a project."
