You would have thought Capcom’s steady commitment to multiplatform development would preclude any hopes of the publisher releasing an exclusive title for PlayStation 3, right? Well, according to a recent business strategy plan for the fiscal year ending March 2010, this might (emphasis on the word might) not be the case.
The list, which includes details on the number of titles due for release on each platform throughout 2009, confirms that Capcom intends on bringing 12 games to Xbox 360 this year, and 13 on PS3. Could this mean the Japanese software giant has a surprise up its sleeve for PS3 owners?
Assuming this is an exclusive, 1up speculates that the most likely option is a Japan-only deal such as Monster Hunter Frontier or Sengoku BASARA. No, we’ve never heard of them either. Then again, it could just simply be the Japanese version of God of War III, as Capcom has published all prior entries in the series in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Hopefully we’ll be able to shed some light on this intriguing development in the near future. Stay tuned.
