Creating a Cutting-Edge Development Environment
Capcom is constructing two research and development buildings near the Osaka headquarters, one of which is already completed. In addition to a motion capture room and a Foley studio for creating and recording sound effects, these new R&D buildings include a multi-purpose space accommodating more than 100 people and incorporate the latest equipment, which will help improve development quality.
