Capcom unveils sales targets for RE5, SF IV and more

Speaking in light of its financial results yesterday, Japanese publisher Capcom has disclosed sales projections for several major upcoming software releases spanning PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC and Wii platforms.

Leading the pack is hotly anticipated survival horror sequel, Resident Evil 5 (PS3, Xbox 360), which the company expects to sell in the region of 3.2 million units following its launch on March 13.

Meanwhile, Street Fighter IV (PS3, Xbox 360) is poised to sell a rather modest 1.7 million units, followed by Bionic Commando (PS3, Xbox 360, PC) at 1.5 million units.

Bringing up the rear is Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop for Nintendo Wii, which Capcom reckons will sell an estimated 500,000 units.

Stay tuned for more news on all of the above (bar Dead Rising, naturally) here at PSU in the near future.
