Capcom launches new Capcom Town Store to sell PC games

Capcom has launched Capcom Town, a digital marketplace for fans to purchase PC versions of their games directly from the publisher. The store features titles available on Steam and GOG, including Pragmata and Resident Evil 9 Requiem, but it is uncertain if Xbox or PlayStation titles will be added. The pricing on the Capcom Town Store may not be as competitive as on Steam, with older titles like Dragon's Dogma 2 listed at full retail price. The store offers a tiered discount system for bundled purchases: 5% off for buying 3 items, 10% off for 5 items, and 15% off for 8 items. New customers receive a 10% discount on their first order and an additional 7% off for providing feedback. Capcom aims to sell over 50 million games this year and may introduce direct discounts to achieve this goal.

The classic Xenosaga series is finally making its PC debut, but don’t get too excited because it’s a 2004 mobile game port

Xenosaga: Pied Piper, originally launched in 2004 for Vodafone mobile phones, will debut on PC via Steam. This title has never been released outside of Japan and was designed for flip phones. The publisher responsible for this release has a history of reviving classic titles. The exact release date is not specified, and the port will not include modern quality-of-life enhancements or an English translation. Despite its mobile origins, the game's art style is noted for its effective scaling. Nintendo currently holds the rights to the Xeno series, making it unlikely for other Xenosaga titles to be released on PC soon.
