How Capcom Is Reviving The Game Genre It Once Pioneered
While 2024 was a low-key year for Capcom, the Japanese publisher has been on a recent tear of bringing back beloved franchises. Finishing its spree of Ace Attorney remasters and translations with Ace Attorney Investigations Collection was just the start, as it quickly followed that with the launch of Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics and Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster. What really blew old Capcom fans away, though, was its announcements at The Game Awards 2024. Not only was Onimusha: Way of the Sword a new mainline entry in its franchise, nearly twenty years after the last one, a console sequel for Okami was finally announced.
