Capcom is back with a brand-new Capcom Spotlight, officially scheduled for Thursday, June 26, 2025. The event kicks off at 3:00 PM PDT / 6:00 PM EDT / 11:00 PM BST / June 27 at 7:00 AM JST, and fans can tune in live via Capcom’s official YouTube and Twitch channels. The showcase is expected to run for around 40 minutes, packed with new trailers, gameplay updates, and behind-the-scenes looks at the company’s upcoming lineup.
One of the most anticipated appearances is Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest entry in Capcom’s best-selling action RPG series. Fans are hoping to see more footage from the newly revealed Iceshard Cliffs region, along with deeper gameplay details, a closer look at the Leviathan-type monster Hirabami, and official dates for the second open beta. Given the success of its previous beta and the hype building toward its February 2025 launch, this will likely be a major focus.
Capcom is also expected to provide updates on other big projects. This includes the Onimusha franchise, which is making a major comeback. We may get new gameplay or story reveals from Onimusha: Way of the Sword, set in feudal Kyoto, and possibly a first trailer for the remastered Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny, coming later this year.
Fighting game fans should also keep an eye out for news about Capcom Fighting Collection 2, which bundles together classics like Power Stone 2 and Capcom vs. SNK 2 with modern online play. There’s also a chance we’ll see new character or costume DLC announcements for Street Fighter 6, and potentially more information on the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics, which is already drawing attention from longtime fans.
Other rumored appearances include a fresh trailer for Resident Evil Re: Requiem, the anticipated continuation of RE Village’s saga, and possibly a long-overdue update on PRAGMATA, Capcom’s mysterious sci-fi adventure that has remained quiet for years. There’s also buzz around a potential Ōkami sequel, especially after Capcom teased a bundle featuring Ōkami HD and Kunitsu-Gami, alongside comments from original director Hideki Kamiya hinting at a return to the franchise.
With a blend of returning classics, new IPs, and deep dives into some of Capcom’s biggest franchises, this Capcom Spotlight on June 26 is shaping up to be one of the most important mid-year gaming events of 2025.
