Capcom
Launches 40th Anniversary "Capcom Town" Site
|
|
Feel
old yet? Many of us grew up with Capcom games, so it's okay if the
answer happens to be yes...
This past Sunday, June 11th, 2023 marked Capcom's 40th
year in operation. To help celebrate the monumental year, this week Capcom
launched
a new website called Capcom
Town
— what they've described as "the
ultimate digital tourist destination"
— featuring
a variety of colorful content including: music, playable classic games,
art galleries, and more.
Capcom Town features a browsable map featuring recognizable characters and
locations (buildings) throughout.
Buildings on the map marked with a location icon can be opened to view
specific content or play games.
As
reported earlier, Capcom Town hosts a variety of interesting and historical content, including a
"Virtual
Museum" with original artwork and development documents for many classic
(and newer) titles. Capcom Town also features a "game corner"
where visitors can play classic games including Mega Man and Street
Fighter titles.
Take a closer look at the Capcom Town map below. Some of the iconic Capcom
series represented on the map besides Street Fighter
include: Final
Fight, Rival
Schools, Darkstalkers,
Cyberbots, Devil
May Cry, Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Ace Attorney,
Okami, Son Son, Mega Man, and even Sengoku
Basara.

official Capcom
Town
website
and check out everything it has to offer for Capcom fans! The website even
includes some "hidden" locations and characters to discover.

Generation for updates and continued coverage.
