It seems that Capcom has been one of the few major developers to consistently post record-breaking sales reports year after year for quite some time now (while also keeping all of their core teams intact too).






Capcom just released their latest financial report for the last quarter of 2024 ending in December, which revealed some new sales figures for the developer’s best-selling games, including Street Fighter 6.









As can be seen in the official third-quarter presentation, Street Fighter 6 was Capcom’s seventh-highest selling title of the fiscal year up to that point.


In that nine-month period, SF6 managed to sell 1.095 million copies around the world, which is nice to see for the fighting game’s second year, even if it was still behind the likes of Monster Hunter: World, Monster Hunter Rise, Resident Evil 4, and Resident Evil Village.


This puts Street Fighter’s new total sales numbers at 4.4 million.


That’s an additional 300,000 from the last quarter ending in September, which would be just under the average for the rest of the fiscal year, but still pretty impressive nonetheless.

At this same juncture of time, Street Fighter 5 had only managed to sell 1.9 million copies, so SF6 is still putting up more than double the performance of its predecessor.


On the flipside, we still don’t know exactly how much the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection has sold since its launch in September, but we do know some goals it hasn’t reached just yet.


The report shows that Devil May Cry 5 was Capcom’s 10th best-selling title of the fiscal year up to this point at 979,000 copies.


Since MvC is nowhere else on that list, we can safely assume the new collection has yet to hit 1 million copies, but it’s not time to worry yet.


Previously, Capcom stated the MvC Collection was selling exactly as they forecasted, and that’s not all.


The company also finally updated their series sales rankings, which put Marvel vs. Capcom up from 11 to 12 million games sold across all entries.


So the needle is being moved, however, we don’t yet know how much of that is from the collection and how much is from Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite — especially with the MvCI Beyond mod project giving the game a boost late last year too.


Moreover, we can also look to the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection because while it may be sitting at 3.4 million copies now, it took quite a while to reach that point.


That collection launched in May 2018, but it didn’t reach the 1 million mark on Capcom’s sales rankings until over a year later as of September 2019.


Considering the MvC collection did top some U.S. sales charts upon release, that hopefully means it sold even better than the Street Fighter one at the start and will reach 1 million faster than it.


And we’re sure Capcom will be the first to let everyone know when Marvel does one day reach that million mark.


We still don’t have Capcom’s fully updated Platinum Titles numbers yet, but those should be coming soon.


Plus looking ahead, we’re curious to see if Mai Shiranui’s launch for SF6 will boost the sales any more than normal for the current quarter too.
