Sure thing, here’s a more… human take on that article:

So, there’s this thing about Capcom—yeah, the big Japanese company that makes all those games. They just shared some news, and honestly, I’m kinda blown away. They made ¥45.5 billion, or if we’re talking dollars, $302.2 million. And that’s just from the past three months ending in June. Crazy, right?
Anyway, big part of this is thanks to their games, which they call “Digital Contents”—sounds fancy. They’re talking about games you might know—Devil May Cry 5, Resident Evil Village, the shiny new Resident Evil 4 Remake, and Street Fighter 6. Oh, and Devil May Cry got a boost because Netflix did that anime thing. Honestly, good stuff.
Get this—Devil May Cry 5 alone sold 10.5 million units. And 1.7 million of those happened in just the last quarter. Then there’s Resident Evil Village, sitting at a nice 12.2 million. Resident Evil 4 hit 10.6 million, and Street Fighter 6 is at five million. That last one might’ve gotten help from launching on the Nintendo Switch 2. Or maybe people just like punching buttons on new consoles. Who knows?
Overall, Capcom pushed out 14.16 million games this time around. That’s up quite a bit from last year’s 9.53 million. Maths, right?
Oh, and about their profits—those went up too. Like, a lot. We’re talking a 90.8% hike. Now they’re at ¥24.6 billion, which is about $163.4 million. Wild times for Capcom, huh?
