What To Expect From Capcom Spotlight
Resident Evil Requiem & Pragmata Gameplay
Monster Hunter WildsandStreet Fighter 6will certainly be of interest to those who already play each.Wildswas wildly successfulwhen it launched, andis set to regularly release content between now and its expected expansion, some of which is sure to be detailed at the showcase.Street Fighter 6is in a similar boat, and the Capcom Spotlight will likely provide an in-depth look at upcoming characters.
The other two games confirmed for the Capcom Spotlight,Resident Evil RequiemandPragmata, will likely be the two to keep a keen eye on, though. It’s likely that theResident Evil Requiempreviewshown off behind closed doors at Summer Game Fest will be made public, giving everyone a look at its gameplay.Pragmatasimilarly had a hands-on demo for SGF attendees, soa deeper explanation of its design will probably be its contribution to the Capcom Spotlight.
Capcom Has A Strong Roster Of Upcoming Games
A Showcase To Look Forward To
Single-publisher showcases can be hit or miss, butthe Capcom Spotlight is shaping up to be one you won’t want to miss. Capcom has been on a roll withResident Evilsince its major misstep withRE6, andRequiemis already looking promising.BiohazardandVillagehave taken the series in a bold new direction, andRequiemappears to be setting up quite a bit of closure for the iconic survival horror franchise with a return to the destroyed Raccoon City. Not to mention, it’ll be the best of both worlds with both first- and third-person gameplay.
Pragmataalso looks very compelling, and the Capcom Spotlight will hopefully dash any remaining reservations stemming from its repeated delays. Previews from Summer Game Fest describe an odd blend of hacking minigames and third-person shooter gameplay, and with positive first impressions, it would seem the protracted development has paid off.Resident Evil RequiemandPragmatawill likely be the standouts, butCapcomprobably has plenty of exciting news forMonster HunterandStreet Fighteron the docket as well.
