Capcom confirmed that the year 2025 was another in a series of record years for the company, with which it achieved even the 12th consecutive year of growth in operating profit. In addition, this is the tenth consecutive year with double-digit growth and the eighth year in a row with record financial results. One of the key reasons for this success is the increasing focus on the PC platform. Capcom revealed that the PC today accounts for around 50% of the total sales of their games, making it the most important market for the company - ahead of consoles such as PlayStation and Xbox.
This trend shows a big change in the strategy of the Japanese publisher, which a few generations ago often released PC versions with a delay. Today, PC has become the primary platform, and Capcom plans to further invest in the development and optimization of its games for this audience. Successful titles like the Monster Hunter series and the continuous sale of older games through digital channels also play a big role in growth, which enables stable and long-term income.
Capcom's business model, which combines big new titles with strong "catalog" sales of older games, is clearly delivering results. If this trend continues, PC could become an even more dominant segment of the gaming industry in the future - at least when it comes to Capcom.
