Devil May Cry 5 sells 2.1 million copies in 21 days, 1 million increase from 2013's DmC 1.1 million; now officially the fastest selling game in the franchise. DmC currently at 2.4 million. DMC4 at 3 million.
Resident Evil 2 Remake performs very strongly at 4.2 million. Resident Evil 7 showing long legs at 6.4 million. Monster Hunter World at a staggering 12.4 million. Megaman 11 not listed, since it did not manage to sell more than 1 million.
After all the negative PR I'm impressed MvC:I still managed to sell 1.3 million.
Samuel Bell
well megaman didnt get much adverisement and its not one of Capcom's big AAA games so I'm not surprised.
Jaxon Howard
Yeah.
All though the same can not be said for Dead Rising 4.
Juan Hernandez
Old news, user. Pretty sure the game has breached 3mil now
Caleb Reyes
bump
Jace Moore
Once people stopped talking about it, the fans and casuals who didn’t buy the game because of that bad PR bought the game on sales. It’s really a fun game, it just doesn’t have the love of the previous games.
Isaiah Hernandez
Yes, but these are the concrete official numbers as of right now.
Ryan Williams
In the report they also confirm that they have several unannounced RE engine games in development.
At this point i find RE7 getting closer to surpassing RE6 before It reached 10k...Heck i am surprised RE7 is still selling,i tought REmake2 would outshines It completelly.
Jaxon Lopez
As said before the game was too huge of budget to really be a hit for Capcom They went back to horror because 6 didn’t meet there goal sales number for ages Sticking to low budget survival horror is a far safer bet
I bet It would sell more If CAPCOM WASNT SUCH A CUNTS AND GIVE VR TO PCFAGS!
Camden Diaz
>Heck i am surprised RE7 is still selling
Not that surprising when you think about how few modern AAA horror games there actually are. RE7 and REmake2 basically occupy a specific niche where not many other games are competing.
Imagine it's Halloween, people want something scary to play, they go on to Steam/PSN and see that Resident Evil is on sale-etc
You get my point.
Jacob Parker
Marvel brand name, plus a shit ton of damage control.
Grayson Anderson
>tfw playing other games and hear something about DMC5 >try to continue >itsnotthesame.mp4 >can't resist >go back to playing DMC5 >thank you DMC5
Lincoln Green
>Resident Evil 2 Remake performs very strongly at 4.2 million And it isn't it confirmed that KH3 performed better than RE2? I'm still shocked that it sold so well.
Kayden Long
Kingdom Hearts is fucking Disney dude.
People on Yea Forums might view KH as nothing but a Nomura cringefest but most normalfags view KH as "That Disney crossover game I played as a kid!" Also that shit is popular as fuck with girls, just like other Disney properties.
Joshua Thompson
I bet Capcom will still make some kind of RE6 sequel spin-off game. It won't be as lavishly produced as RE6, but there's clearly an audience for the action co-op.
Aaron Anderson
>Devil May Cry 5 sells 2.1 million copies in 21 days Vergil when capcom?
Logan Evans
I should be happy, but i wanted so much more for REmake 2. I hoped it was gonna whoop REVII's ass.
4.2 million is more or less what REVII sold at launch as well.
Jacob White
it shipped 5 million
Blake Morris
Dmc5’s lack of a full co op mode really hurt the game I think. I stopped playing because of it.
Jaxson Martin
Both Megaman 11 and X Legacy Collection are at over 900,000 sales. Give it another quarter and they'll be platinum.
Michael Wilson
Capcom should be grateful they sold >3M mhgu copies with their horrible marketing strategies Also happy for the dmc fans, it seems they'll be able to get another sequel after Itsuno does DD2 judging it sold well
Chase Carter
What about Rival Schools?
Gavin Rivera
I honestly wouldn’t mind it if I still get my survival horror RE games too
>Also happy for the dmc fans, it seems they'll be able to get another sequel after Itsuno does DD2 judging it sold well
DMC5 is very likely Itsuno's last DMC. The role of director will fall on some younger guy at Capcom now. So DD2 and DMC6 will be made simultaneously.
Daniel Allen
if DMC6 does go for a new director, i really hope Itsuno sticks around for atleast the first year of development just to monitor the new guy to make sure he isnt fucking it up
Andrew Russell
Too DMC will never be as relevant as God of War or ever come close to matching its sales figures.
How much of those GU sales are on Switch, that's probably all they're seeing. As if it matters, they'll probably just make 4U HD and call it a day. Capcom doesn't give a fuck about Switch.
Gabriel Harris

Asher Adams

Hudson Foster
>Too DMC will never be as relevant as God of War or ever come close to matching its sales figures.
To be fair Itsuno himself did say he would be interested in a new Rival Schools game among his other ideas / interests
Kevin Peterson
fighting games are a niche genre and rival schools is even more "literally who" than darkstalkers or samsho
Jack Martinez
Good, fuck Mega Man 11. As an avid Mega Man fan this game felt like complete trash. It was painstakingly easy to the point where you never feel the need to use any sub weapons, even again the bosses. And the overall designs/aesthetics were so damn ugly. I don’t want to sound like a nostalgia fag and I mean it when I say that I wouldn’t hate the 2.5D transition but the sprites in 9 and 10 seriously look so much better. Also the gear system is really boring and another factor that makes the game piss easy. The only thing I really enjoyed was the goofy voice lines all the robot masters had.
That was my blog post thank you for reading alright bye
Jason Carter
I actually like the new god of war, but its pretty sad Yea Forumsirgins can only say "it sold well" as a reason for liking it. A bunch of devoted sonyfags probably.
Jordan Rogers
Remember this the next time someone flaunts DMC5's sales over other action titles for me, would you?
Isaiah Gomez
It was probably speculation but there was a thread or two that at the time when there was a lot of talk about Nioh when it finally came out that Capcom would be watching its response / reception as a sort of gauge to determine if they ever want to make a 'new' onimusha game since the games are a little similar. Though now that the new protagonist in Nioh 2 even has a transformation mechanic they might wait again. But if nothing else they can make hd remasters of the remaining ps2 games.
Michael Fisher
This. It's the same reason why Captain Marvel made a shit ton of cash at the box office despite being garbage.
Jonathan Davis
nah no reason to. Everyone talks about the gameplay anyway, even the bait is usually about combat instead of sales.
Someone explain the MHW franchise to me. Genuinely curious since it keeps appearing at the top of various sales charts.
How is it different from a FFXI or other MMOs where you battle huge monsters?
Nathan Long
I still see it getting made. Also Darkstalkers was popular in Japan and Samsho was popular in places like Latin America, at least.
Adam Brown
>Resident Evil 2 Remake performs very strongly at 4.2 million. Resident Evil 7 showing long legs at 6.4 million. Sounds disappointing for REmake 2 to me. I thought this game was going to sell as much as RE5 at least. Either I overthought the amount of people that wanted this remake or they just didn't do enough to make it beat RE7 sales.
>Megaman 11 not listed, since it did not manage to sell more than 1 million. This fucking saddens the hell out of me.
Zachary James
it was the first of its kind and japs latched onto it once it went mobile
Nice cherrypicking but it's not like DMC5 didn't have really shitty exploration and "puzzles" which were just putting hatchlings in mouths.
Xavier Harris
It's gonna be Dragon's Dogma 2. Sorry but the trannies of reddit and the FGCuck have tainted their fighting games. There's no fucking point to even give those miserable two faced fucks a new fighting game. Especially when they are obviously gonna milk more of SFV since the PS5's backwards compatibility with PS4 games means they can easily continue making the FGCucks seethe over SFV. See you FGCucks in 8 years!
DMC5 has one 5 second walking sequence and the hatchlings are a minor obstacle with cutscenes that can even be skipped
Josiah Martinez
RE5 was riding off the coattails of RE4. It could have been absolute dogshit and it would have still sold that much
Levi Lopez
DMC was never a co-op game
Lucas Mitchell
Except Darkstalkersfags don't even play their game.
John Baker
>Megaman 11 not listed, since it did not manage to sell more than 1 million Still sold 800k, pretty good for a new game on series people labelled as dead, also I think only 3 or so Mega Man games across all series ever reached the 1 million mark.
James Lee
Concrete numbers from actual copies sold from the publisher itself is hard news, other reports are just "safe speculation" based on shipments.
Juan Young
>Street Fighter High School 3D trend cash grab edition >Good
Jaxson Wright
So that makes up for them being copy-pasted and the only puzzles in the game? Also I'm pretty sure there were more walking sequences than that especially in between the fights against V's summons and the elevators. GOW had way better boss fights and didn't constantly recycle the same ones so that's what matters most.
Oliver James
Yes and no Capcom gave a flying fuck about the console untill they saw it wasn't a flop Now they're "no, we're really doing something for the console" while trying to make time flooding it with overpriced ports Despite being crap, at least bethesda had the balls to port important games to the console at launch and has some upcoming games confirmed to be on in too
Fight me in real life you motherfucker! Rival Schools was the GOAT, in fact several mechanics from was stolen by Marvel vs Capcom that the FGC loves so much.
Mason Foster
I hate this outdated chart, while DMC3 suffered at launch because people had lost faith in the series with DMC2, a year later DMC3 SE blew up the charts and made DMC3 sell as well as it should have.
Nicholas Nelson
It's the initial opening reaction, deal with it.
Ethan Cruz
>Using the arcade sales meme >MvC Oh you mean the one shit series that pretty much absorbed your over fighters?
So then where's Darkstalkers "4" I mean you guys really must like Darkstalkers despite you cunts were blowing off Conman and Kike Z while using the "muh fightcade" excuse when Resurection was put out.
Tyler Bailey
You said Darkstalkers fans didn't play the game but Japanese arcades were massive and it was consistently in the top five. I already conceded Darkstalkers was only really popular in Japan so you're either being stupid or shitposting at this point.
I can't speak for anyone else but I bought Darkstalkers Resurrection. Capcom's fighting game division was in shambles once they started developing for the PS2. Only SF and Marvel got revivals after, I'm not even sure if a new Darkstalkers would be viable but it was a hit in arcades.
>Only popular in Japan Nice way of proving my point Feliciafag.
Jack Ward
>MHW went from 11.9 to 12.4 in 3 months Isn't that a bit low?
Connor Morgan
>reuses 3 bosses on a character that hasn't fought against them yet >constantly recycles You could've told me you didn't play DMC5 in the first place
Levi Diaz
I'm still surprised that those games will be able to surpass Dead Rising 4 in terms of sales, it took it 2-3 years to even reach one million sales.
Benjamin Allen
>"Darkstalkers was popular in Japan at least" >"Nobody played Darkstalkers" >Post statistics for Japanese arcades proving its Japanese fanbase played it >"See, nobody played it"
It'd be virtually impossible to do so due to how mentally ill the Capcom FGC is now. They will chimp the fuck out over any slightest thing not being up too their hyper autistic standards.
Leo Davis
>DMC5 fastest selling game in the franchise at 2.1 mill >when DMC1 opened at the same sales as a new IP and was restricted to a single platform
Urizen is fought by Nero twice and Dante twice. Nero's boss fights are repeated by V. Vergil is fought twice. V's summons are fought by Dante throughout an entire mission. You're the one who has to admit you're just asshurt God of War is more popular and better than Devil May Cry will ever be.
Adam Brown
So where's the outside of Japan charts then?
Jaxson Ortiz
DMC5's numbers aren't even counting the PC version, which sold 4m in the first month. Game has sold extremely well
Just pointing out even if those fantasy 4 million numbers were real Kratos still made Dante look like a joke.
Easton Clark
>t's not like DMC5 didn't have really shitty exploration t. missed all missable locations
Jayden Baker
wtf i love justin bieber now
Michael Brooks
Oh shit, he missed a few cubby holes huh? DMC5 has the blandest, most sterile level design in the series thus far, I don't know if 4 or 5 is worse. It makes the reboot's levels look masterful and vibrant in comparison.
Levi Adams
Or was since the studio shut down about a year ago. Your image really has me thinking though, at this point I wonder if a cheaply produced Legends 1+2 HD remake/Legends 3 has a chance of outselling DR4's total lifetime sales, since that sure as hell wasn't cheap to produce despite the awful visuals and buggy nature.
Nolan Bailey
and what's your excuse for RE6 selling 10 mil?
Isaac Thomas
I cant wait for MM11 to cross 1 million next quarter. Its high fucking time for "muh 2.5D" shitposters to eat their crow and admit Inti Creates was never necessary to make a good new entry.
The darkness of night falls around my soul And the hunter within loses control (Gotta let it out, gotta let it out) (Gotta let it out, gotta let it out) This demon inside has a hold of me Clenching its power trying to break free (Gotta let it out, gotta let it out) (Gotta let it out, gotta LET IT OUT) Move fast baby don't be slow Step aside, reload, time to go I can't seem to control All this RAGE THAT'S INSIDE ME Pulling shots, aiming dots, yeah I don't miss Branded by fire on the Abyss Red-hot temper, I just can't resist All this VENGEANCE INSIDE ME
I found plenty of locations with upgrades and other shit. I had more fun exploring God of War because there was more good dialogue to go along with the exploration. Also the platforming with Nero was so basic it wasn't funny.
Nah nigga, to hit RE7 numbers? Chris gotta be the protagonist. Leon just can't do it, with his baby faced manlet ass.
Robert Hall
Small fanbase of weebs, that's why.
Thomas Morris
Me and my friends have been saying for ages that Capcom needs to make a standalone mercenaries game. There was an attempt with RE3D, but the limited hardware held the game back from reaching its true potential.
Brody Baker
NOOOOO
Not like this. I'm supposed to be Exterminator de demonios. I'm supposed to be the devil may cry
And you wonder why FGCucks don't deserve a new fighting game from Capcom.
Leo Jackson
Too bad GoW's combat was changed into souls-trash
Christian Mitchell
It's early days. RE7's sale numbers initially seemed underwhelming yet it just kept on selling. I imagine the same will happen with RE2.
Carson Reyes
>That one user that was trying to tell me it "Only shipped 2 million copies" and Capcom never said they sold that many. Once I pulled out the Million sellers link that showed DMC5 sold 2.1mil he stopped replying to me.
Honestly Capcom has shown they can't do good fighting games anymore, so I'm happy if they won't resurrect series like Darkstalkers or Rival Schools only to be ruined by Division 2.
Zachary Robinson
I'd like a 4U/3U combo pack
Logan Martinez
They could probably increase those sales if they released some more character DLCs. Maybe bundle a character pass with the game.The character roster right now sucks.
Vergil Nero Lady Leon Thanos Deadpool
Any of these characters being added could gain some new hype. Dragon Ball Fighter Z is their biggest competition and it's being kept alive by constant character additions.
And release it on PC too while they're at it. Free me from handheld hell.
Robert Hughes
The worst choice switch owners made was buying that Street Fighter 2 at $40. It feels like it just opened the floodgates for publishers to screw them over just because people fall for the "On the go" meme.
Wyatt Clark
Pretty much this They should have told capcom to fuck off, it wouldn't make much difference with what's happening right now but that way they wouldn't pull shit like that again
Justin Cruz
>The worst choice switch owners made was buying that Street Fighter 2 at $40.
It's amazing how people will literally buy fucking anything just to have something to play on a new system.
Noah Rogers
Vergil expansion is next-gen re-release bait user. It's when they put in LDK and Turbo.
