Capcom is hosting a special program for Street Fighter 6 on Day 2 of TGS. The program features Shuhei Matsumoto, Takayuki Nakayama, and Kaname Fujioka, the Producer, Director, and Art Director respectively of Street Fighter 6.
▍Monster Hunter Sunbreak
Monster Hunter Sunbreak is showing the new content in store for the Free Title Update 2 in Autumn later this year. Capcom already unveiled Flaming Espinas from Monster Hunter Frontier to be part of the game’s second title update, so expect to see more rare species, and powered-up monsters being unveiled at TGS!
▍Resident Evil Village
Resident Evil Village’s segment focuses on the latest information regarding the game’s new edition, Resident Evil Village Gold Edition which is set to release in October 2022. With the Gold Edition’s content being unveiled earlier this year, expect to see more info about the new Rose story campaign, Mercenaries, and third-person mode!
▍Exoprimal
Exoprimal is Capcom’s newest IP, a third-person coop shooter set in 2040, with the world being threatened by a mysterious outbreak of Dinosaurs appearing out of thin air, laying waste to cities across the globe! The game was announced earlier this year at Playstation’s State of Play in march, and had a Closed Network Test earlier this year. Expect to learn more about Exoprimal’s gameplay systems, story, and possibly a release date!
▍Megaman Battle Network Legacy Collection
Megaman Battle Network Legacy Collection was announced earlier this year and slated to release in 2023. With the collection mostly being a remaster of the original GBA games, hopefully we’ll get to see a release date for this collection, along with any news on additional features, and possibly features to let us play Online and compete with others, or how to collect old battle chips that needed to be redeemed physically back in the day!
▍Street Fighter 6
Street Fighter 6 has the entire FGC frothing at the mouth for more news, with every character reveal lighting the internet on fire, and every gameplay snippet being analyzed frame by frame, to discover any new tech the game has to offer. We’re hoping Street Fighter 6 reveals two more characters at TGS, and while a release date is probably too much to ask for, hopefully the game also announces some kind of Early Network Test so we can all sink our teeths into it!
