Capcom's president has some high hopes over how many copies Street Fighter 6 will sell

Street Fighter 6 is shaping up to be a strong followup to its predecessor, and it seems that Capcom’s president has some high hopes for how many copies it will sell.

As much as fighting game players like to think that fighting games are the hottest thing since sliced bread, for the most part it’s a pretty niche genre. The genre does typically retain players quite well, assuming the game is good, but in terms of sheer units it mostly struggles compared to other genres. That doesn’t matter much to Capcom’s president Haruhiro Tsujimoto though, as he’s hoping that the upcoming Street Fighter 6 will sell 10 million copies.

Tsujimoto recently spoke with Famitsu about a range of topics, like the industry at large, and what’s coming next for Capcom (thanks, PCGamer). On the topic of Street Fighter 6, the president said that Capcom had “no hesitation,” in investing in the fighting game. In terms of sales targets, Tsujimoto noted that “if we can make use of our experience in the digital field, we should be able to aim for 10 million units.”
