3 years ago they said it and they've done it. They're absolutely killing it.

I feel like there's at least one major Japanese dev/pub that could learn from Capcom's effort in growing their PC market share.
Capcom Is Planning on Making PC Its Main Platform in the Coming Years - IGN
According to Capcom's COO Haruhiro Tsujimoto, the company behind Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Street Fighter, and many more is planning to "mainly focus on PC software" in the future.

But Gaf told me all the Resident evil sales were on the PS5 and that Silent hill 2 would be better off as a Sony exclusive

Some games sell better on console, others on PC.
Revolutionary concept.
P.S. Yes, Silent Hill 2 has sold better on PS5.

Let them be. In the end they won’t be the one having the last laugh

They likely are?
The higher PC split is due to other properties like DD2

and i think some people just pretending physical games doesnt exist. PS5 and switch still has sizable amount of physical copies.
And this is the hardware share just for capcom games.

Not really. They're going by what worked with the
I highly doubt Rockstar is going to have any problems selling GTA6 to every individual who wants a copy. Also, they have the benefit of only having to support consoles at launch, figure that out, and then hopefully launch a mostly issue free PC version.

Gaf (PS fanboys) told me that PC is so irrelevant that it's not even worth to port games to it.
Sony might had some bad sales, but what you expect when you force people for useless PSN registration and port games few years later? Looks like Capcom and few others don't have that problem.

That's true, but I don't think anyone with a PS5Xbox AND a PC is going to wait a year or longer to play GTA6.
But you're right. It could always not work. Somehow, I think it will.

I own a PS5 and I will wait. But there are parts of the world where it is actually a total loss, where there are lots of PCs and not a lot of Playstation5s.
Given the massive marketing blitz that will accompany GTA6 launch, it is foolish not to address the broadest possible audience when the iron is hottest. The double dip 12-18 months later won't make up for that miss.

How much of the digital pie is DLC, mtx, digital sales of old titles for 2 Euros a pop etc? Knowing that would certaintly help putting it all in perspective.

Possibly. Like I said, you could be right and it could backfire. I don't think GTA6 is going to be a good gauge of that though. The game is going to do very well regardless of release strategy.
Overall you're right, however. PC is more of a factor today than it's ever been.

What these insecure posters on here are referring to is this thread....

Please find the comments they're suggesting happened.....because they didn't happen.
Considering this is unit sales doesn't suggest anything different than 95% of the arguments that were made in that thread.
The argument was...new games are selling better (generally) on PS5 and that PCs increase in units is from older games having a longer tail on PC due to discounts and older games being available for the first time..
Nothing about this data suggests any different.
The gaslighting is in full effect in this thread.

Capcom has been on a roll. They adopting PC as their main platform moving forward was the right call 3 years ago. Now they still have a lot of room of growing in the Western Market beyond Resident Evil, Street Fighter, and Monster Hunter. Capcom's potential growth is far from over.

Monster Hunter Wilds is going to make them so much money on PC.

Capcom has sold more units on PC in the first half of FY25 than on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation and Xbox combined
Capcom has shared its sales for the first half of FY25, and it appears that the big winner here was the PC platform.

Over the last 3 years it’s flat AF, it’s 2020-2022 that it exploded, I wonder what happened…
