Capcom’s Profits Rise Nearly 300 Percent, Thanks To Dragon’s Dogma
While some companies have seen better days, such as THQ and the recently-bankrupt 38 Studios, others are actually doing exceptionally well. Capcom, it would seem, is a great example of one that is doing much better than expected.
Recently they announced their first quarter earnings, and their net income was up a whopping 290.2 percent. Net sales were also up 55.8 percent. So what’s the cause for the spike? The company pointed to a number of contributing factors, the least of which not being Dragon’s Dogma.
This isn’t a big surprise, considering that the game has shipped over a million units, and Capcom recently decided to develop a full sequel. Further, they’ve decided that the game needs to be expanded into a series, which points to more titles in the future.
