Capcom
will be celebrating its 40th anniversary coming up on June 11th,
2023,
as
the date marks 40 years since the company's founding on June
11th, 1983. On Wednesday, Capcom shared a special illustration
that captures and celebrates many of the company's iconic IPs, along with
a special message for fans. On social media, Capcom thanked fans and the
community for their ongoing support over the years with the slogan,
"From Osaka to the world, here's to Capcom's 40th Anniversary!"
As
reported earlier, Capcom has opened up a teaser
website for Capcom Town — a digital online destination for
fans around the world which goes live on June 12th, 2023. Capcom Town
will host a variety of interesting and historical content, including a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 will also feature a "game corner"
where visitors can play classic games such as Mega Man and Street
Fighter II.
Take a closer look at Capcom's 40th anniversary illustration,
below. Other series represented in the artwork besides Street Fighter
include: Final
Fight, Rival
Schools, Darkstalkers,
Cyberbots, Devil
May Cry, Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Ace Attorney,
