Capcom is aiming to increase its percentage of female managers to 15%.
In a general Q&A at a recent shareholders meeting, Capcom said currently 21.2% of employees at the firm are female, with 13.6% of its core talent being made up by women.
It's unclear what distinction Capcom makes between employees and core talent.
When asked what it would do to increase the ratio of female managers internally, the firm said it believed it would see more women making it to director positions by "broadening [its] scope and increasing the ratio of female managers" in the long term.
The company also said it will consider non-Japanese directors when looking at candidates going forward.
