The Japanese giant, Capcom, announced it's earnings results for the fiscal year ending on March 31. Revenue has shown an increase, despite some setbacks in sales expectations regarding Dead Rising 4.
Revenue rose 13.2 percent, while net income also saw improvement, rising 14.6 percent compared to last year. Their real winners of the fiscal year were Resident Evil 7 and Monster Hunter XX, which according to Capcom showed "Solid performance."
The real stumbling block was Dead Rising 4. The newest entry to the tongue-in-cheek series that released for Xbox One and PC. It was noted that the mixed reaction to Dead Rising 4 came from the "more approachable" nature of the game did not resonate with everyone.
Dead Rising 4 released in December without much notice on Xbox One and PC. They expected to ship 2 million units by the end of March, though it's unclear what the final numbers were.
Moving forward, Capcom said it will "strengthen digital download sales and increase our pipeline of major title releases according to our medium-term strategic map."
