Capcom has announced that they have sworn off the practice of games being exclusive to one console like the PS3 or Xbox 360.
“All major titles launched during the next fiscal year or thereafter will be developed as multi-platform games,”
With this, Capcom will develop many of its games using the internal MT Framework technology which is “an integrated development environment built to provide common development tools for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC platforms.”
As a result, the company “will aim to increase revenue and dramatically increase the number of users by launching, for example, Resident Evil 5 … Street Fighter IV … and Bionic Commando [on multiple platforms].”
Capcom’s strategy may already be in action as the Wii port of Dead Rising: Chop Til’ You Drop was once exclusive to the Xbox 360 platform, as well as several titles such as Street Fighter 4 maybe Wii-bound.
