CAPCOM's yearly financial report has been released, showing that the Japanese company has registered a new record of $979 million when it comes to net sales. It's a major increase (21%) year-over-year, and it also comes with a boost in operating income ($366 million, up 12.3% compared to last year) and ordinary income ($381 million, up 15.7% year-over-year).

CAPCOM managed to sell nearly 46 million units during the fiscal year that ended on March 31, which is also a historic record for the company. A lot of that was driven by the new games, with the Resident Evil 4 Remake selling 7 million units, Street Fighter 6 3.3 million units, and Dragon's Dogma 2 2.6 million units.
