Resident Evil Requiem director Koshi Nakanishi and producer Masato Kumazawa stated that Capcom has no plans to retire iconic characters such as Leon S. Kennedy, Chris Redfield, and Jill Valentine.

Capcom's sci-fi IP Pragmata sold over 1 million units worldwide within two days of its April 2026 launch across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Nintendo Switch 2. Executives now suggest franchise potential following the milestone, crediting marketing, a young dev team, and years of delays that 'were worth the effort.'

Capcom released the original Resident Evil 1, 2, and 3 on Steam on April 2, incorporating Enigma DRM despite recent backlash over similar implementations. Steam users have reported performance issues and incompatibility with Steam Deck. The move follows Capcom's removal of the same DRM from Resident Evil 4 last month.
