With the positive reaction to both Monster Hunter: Rise and Resident Evil Village's presentations within the last few weeks, Capcom continues rebuilding itself as a top-class developer and publisher after kick-starting its own redemption and revival in 2017.
Both these games are gonna be critical and especially commercial successes from the looks of it, and Capcom still has a lot in store. Some bizarre actions and slimly practices aside (another multi RE game?), Capcom is one of the best 3rd party publishers right now.
Resident Evil 7, MS:86, sales: 8.6m
SF5: Arcade Edition, MS:87, sales: 5m (all versions)
MH World, MS:90, sales: 16.4m
Mega Man 11, MS:82, sales: 1.3m

SF5: Arcade Edition, MS:87, sales: 5m (all versions)
MH World, MS:90, sales: 16.4m
Mega Man 11, MS:82, sales: 1.3m

DMC5, MS:87, sales: 3.9m

In a few years, they managed to reclaim ResiEvil's spot as a premiere horror franchise; Monster Hunter hit an unprecedented worldwide acclaim; DMC was revived with arguably its best entry to date; and even Street Fighter 5 experienced a massive turn around after a botched launch
Jury's still out there if they can strike the same cord with new IPs like Pragmata (whenever it comes), but so far, Capcom managed to make its three top IPs relevant again with rumors and leaks for more to come. I'm really excited for their future releases!
