Hard blow for Capcom: the famous Osaka firm has recently had its database hacked. This includes obviously sensitive information on many of its employees, but also and especially its plan for the year 2021: a lot of information on a lot of projects, announced or not, have just been disclosed on the Internet … to the chagrin organisation. As tradition dictates, we must take these details with a grain of salt, the company having been able to change its plans very well in the meantime.
- Resident Evil Village: the new opus of the saga would ultimately not be a PS5 / Xbox Series exclusive but would be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Everything would arrive in April 2021, preceded by a free playable demo.
- A new Resident Evil multiplayer game called Project Highway or Village Online, which would be a battle royale.
- A new project called “Guillotine” scheduled for Switch in February, and other platforms in May.
- A new project called “Reiwa”, apparently scheduled for May
- A new multiplayer shooter called “Shield”, focused on streaming, streamers and their audience
- Ace attorney : A compilation of the name of Ace Attorney Collection is expected on PS4 and Switch
- Monster Hunter Rise: the Switch excluded would finally arrive on PC in October 2021. Playable demos (whose platforms remain to be specified) would be released in January and March.
- Monster Hunter Stories 2: the release is scheduled for 2021 on Switch and PC. There would be solo play but also online co-op and even PvP mode. Also, paid extensions, free post-launch quests, cosmetic microtransactions and compatibility with amiibos would also be planned.
- Resident Evil 4: a version for the Oculus VR would be planned.
