Today, our titles\n                        are sold in more than 200 countries and regions, and Consumer\n                        Games Development Division 1, which I oversee, has long been\n                        focused on creating games for the global market, producing\n                        numerous brands that have been immensely popular overseas,\n                    such as the <em>Resident Evil<\/em> and <em>Devil May Cry<\/em> series. <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        I am grateful that the <em>Resident Evil<\/em> series, which boasts a total of\n                        127 million units in sales (as of June 30, 2022), has been loved by\n                        players around the world for over 25 years. Even today, what\n                        people want from the series remains unchanged: an overwhelming\n                        experience of terror. Added value, such as entertainment, is also\n                        important, but the key to becoming a long seller is pursuing\n                        the essence of a title. I believe that the essence of this series is\n                        terror, which is a feeling that can be understood throughout the\n                        world. While developing <em>Resident Evil 7 biohazard<\/em> (<em>Resident\n                        Evil 7<\/em>, below), our theme was returning to our roots, and as\n                        developers, we took another look at the true essence of <em>Resident\n                        Evil<\/em>. The result was an immersive and terrifying experience highly\n                        acclaimed by users around the world that became a hit title\n                        selling more than one million copies annually since it was released\n                        six years ago. Looking to the future, as part of our research into\n                        cutting-edge technology we took a proactive approach to supporting VR and providing a terrifying\n                        experience in a variety\n                    of ways. <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        In addition, the 2019 release of <em>Resident Evil 2<\/em> was not simply a\n                        remake of the longstanding popular title. We challenged ourselves\n                        to find the essence of the series and provide a new terrifying\n                        experience more realistically and dramatically using the technology\n                        available to us today. Development was a series of trials, but\n                        we made good use of the experience we acquired with <em>Resident\n                        Evil 7<\/em>. The resulting game was well-received by users, going on\n                    to sell more than 10 million copies worldwide. <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        While each title in the <em>Resident Evil<\/em> series has its own complete\n                        story, all the stories in the series are also connected. Therefore, in\n                        providing remakes our aim is to give newcomers to the series\n                        a chance to learn the larger plot line of the series that fans already\n                        know. <em>Resident Evil Village<\/em>, released in 2021 as the sequel to\n                        <em>Resident Evil 7<\/em>, also earned great acclaim worldwide from the\n                        time it was launched. I believe that this game also has the potential\n                        to become a long-selling global hit, joining the ranks of the other\n                    titles discussed here. <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        In terms of sales as well, with the global popularization of digital\n                        sales, we now have an environment where people can play the\n                        games they want to, when they want to, regardless of country,\n                        region, or how long ago the game was released. Furthermore,\n                        with the promotion of our multi-platform strategy, we are working\n                        to allow all users to start playing new games on the day they\n                        are released, regardless of what hardware they own, by aligning\n                        release dates across all hardware.\n                    <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        Continuously evolving our content to keep pace with the\n                        values and technology of the times will generate titles that\n                        will be universally enjoyed around the world going forward.\n                    <\/p>\n                    <div class=\"contBorder\"><\/div>\n                    <p class=\"mT35 p\">\n                        <strong>Leveraging the full potential of\n                            creators\u2019 sensibilities and\n                            bringing new games to the world<\/strong>\n                    <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        The cornerstone of development is people. At Capcom, we have\n                        adopted an agile development system that allows us to assign\n                        personnel to titles as they are needed in order to create an\n                        environment where each and every employee can demonstrate\n                        their talents and abilities. Being a flexible organization has significant\n                        advantages in terms of game development as well employee\n                        motivation. Our training method also changes in accordance with\n                        personality as we aim for a system that can further enhance an\n                        employee\u2019s strengths. For example, young employees are taking\n                        on the challenge of creating the new IP currently under development,\n                        <em>Pragmata<\/em>. The girl that appears in the trailer video of the game was\n                        not produced with our standard 3D scan method, but rather was\n                        created by younger employees from scratch using a completely\n                        different approach. These digital natives are bringing a breath of\n                    fresh air to Capcom with their unique sensibilities. <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        While focusing on the detailed craftsmanship of a game is\n                        important, in order to make a title successful as a business it is also\n                        important to have an objective sense of balance and take in the big picture. There are three\n                        basic rules for game development that\n                        I share with younger employees: 1. games that provide something\n                        completely new provide value, 2. games should be entertaining to\n                        people around the world, and 3. by building a track record for\n                        yourself, you can create the games you want to create. I want them\n                        to approach development from the player\u2019s perspective, while\n                        instilling Capcom\u2019s true essence into our games.\n                    <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        In addition, I consider employees\u2019 health of the utmost importance,\n                        and in step with our human resources investment strategy we\n                        are promoting the creation of a comfortable work environment\n                        with enhanced benefits and thorough labor management. The\n                        proportion of non-Japanese members on the development team\n                        is rising, and I am proud to have an environment where better\n                        game development can take place based on diverse values. I\n                        believe the role of the development division is to maintain diversity\n                        while providing the world with games that leverage Capcom\u2019s\n                        strengths as a Japanese game producer.\n                    <\/p>\n                    <p class=\"mT15 p\">\n                        One of the directions for game development going forward is\n                        for users to have fun interacting with one another within a game\n                        world. People will gather around a certain theme and enjoy\n                        games as if they live in that space. These will be content-first\n                        games. Beyond that, we are aiming for development that raises\n                        players\u2019 expectations and makes them wonder what kind of fun\n                        Capcom will provide next.\n
