Capcom Updates Latest Release Schedule

Capcom’s release schedule for the next several months is looking monstrously well-endowed after the latest update on its official website. Although the dates provided are the official US dates, us euro-blighters shouldn’t have to wait too long. It's highly unlikely that PAL conversions would be too far behind, as Capcom won’t want to miss out on the inevitable Christmas buying frenzy. Alongside a fresh platter of Mega Man adventures and the return of classics like Street Fighter 2, Devil May Cry and Resident Evil, Capcom are also offering a tempting selection of brand new IP's in the run up to the festive period. Shadow of Rome is generating a good deal of excitement, and Monster Hunter and Capcom Fighting Jam are sure to find plenty of homes when they eventually hit the shelves.

Unfortunately, there is no mention of a Viewtiful Joe 2 release date, and no mention of a PS2 version of Killer 7. That’s not to say that these projects have been canned, but they are unlikely to appear anytime before next spring.
