Devil May Cry franchise surpasses 30 million units sold

Capcom is one of the few publishers to directly share transparent sales figures for its games, providing data on all titles which have sold over 1 million copies. As part of the company’s latest fiscal report, Capcom revealed that the Devil May Cry series has hit a new sales milestone.

Sharing its updated list of Platinum Titles, Capcom revealed that the Devil May Cry series has now officially sold more than 30 million units – with a good portion of that being thanks to DMC5’s 7.4 million copies sold.

Another smaller franchise which continues to perform admirably is Dragon’s Dogma. Despite only having one mainline title released to date, total sales for the series has now reached 7.9 million copies – an excellent outcome, especially in anticipation of Dragon’s Dogma 2.

Though we reported on it previously, Capcom also shared that the Resident Evil franchise has now sold over 150 million units in total, making it by far the most successful franchise in the publisher’s repertoire (with Monster Hunter coming in second place at 95 million units sold).

With Capcom promising to release a new ’massive’ title by March of 2024, it will be interesting to see how these numbers shape up in comparison. We will have to wait and see.
