Daily Star – Microsoft’s Xbox One was given some pretty catastrophic games news this morning as yet another Xbox exclusive game seemingly flopped.
Earlier recently Japanese video game giant Capcom announced their earnings results for the fiscal year ending March 31.
The report showed that while games such as Resident Evil 7 and Monster Hunter XX fell just below sales expectations, Capcom believed both had shown a “solid performance” following their releases.
Capcom had also mentioned that the release of ports of older Resident Evil games for new consoles “performed well,” and while the games were not mentioned specifically, it’s likely in reference to the re-release of Resident Evil 4, 5, and 6 throughout 2016.
Project Scorpio’s specs were revealed earlier this month and one of the key selling points was the console’s ability to play games in native 4K, as well as upgrading the resolution of your existing Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles. Source: Daily Star
