The June 2025 Capcom Spotlight is here to deliver all of the latest news on games like Resident Evil Requiem, Pragmata, Street Fighter 6, Monster Hunter Wilds, and more.
As promised, Capcom kicked off its latest digital presentation just moments ago, leaving fans eager to see everything it has in store for the near future. With some titles recently showing off updates elsewhere, many are expecting today’s Capcom Spotlight to offer a deeper dive into some of the Mega-Man and Devil May Cry publisher’s most exciting upcoming titles.
We know today’s showcase is around 40 minutes long, so expect a closer look at some of the company’s biggest games. We’ll be collecting all of the announcements you need to know about right here, so be sure to stick around to see all of the biggest Capcom Spotlight news.
Kicking Off With a Pragmata Gameplay Deep Dive
Capcom kicked off today’s presentation with more Pragmata gameplay footage, revealing a closer look at how players will be able to utilize the powers of an android girl named Diana and a lunar investigator named Hugh Williams as they team up to fight off a variety of dangerous robots. Gameplay involves thinking on your feet by hacking and shooting enemies in an adventure set on a seemingly abandoned lunar research facility.
Pragmata launches for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S in 2026. The public will be able to go hands-on with its puzzle-infused combat at gamescom 2025 this August.
Sagat Comes to Street Fighter 6 August 5
The latest post-launch Street Fighter 6 character addition is Sagat. Today’s Capcom Spotlight gave viewers a release date for the character, setting launch for August 5, 2025. We got a closer look at this updated take on the classic, eyepatch-wearing Street Fighter face with a special video.
Capcom Talks Resident Evil Requiem and (Kind of) Addresses the Leon-Shaped Elephant in the Room
A closer look at Resident Evil 9 means more details about protagonist, FBI Agent Grace Ashcroft, its gameplay, Raccoon City, and more. Although this was mostly an opportunity for the Capcom team to talk about some information that fans have already been made aware of, such as third- and first-person gameplay, the developers did touch on one hot topic: Leon S. Kennedy.
Unfortunately, it remains unclear if the legendary video game survivor will be playable at some point in Resident Evil Requiem, but the team did touch on why it’s hard to make Leon the main character of a horror video game.
“We always thought about making Leon the protagonist, but making a horror game based around him is difficult,” Director Koshi Nakanishi explained. “He wouldn’t jump at something like a bucket falling. No one wants to see Leon scared by every little thing. So he’s actually quite a bad match for horror.”
Capcom has Big Plans for Monster Hunter Wilds
The latest entry in the Monster Hunter series, Monster Hunter Wilds, took up most of the Capcom Spotlight today, bringing news about future updates, a roadmap schedule, additional content, and so much more to the table. Highlights include a gameplay showing underwater fights with Lagiacrus, a treasure trove of quality-of-life updates, and even a collaboration with Fender guitars.
Monster Hunter Wilds fans can go hands-on with Free Title Update 2 when it launches Monday, June 30, adding in much of what was shown during today’s presentation. The Festival of Accord: Flamefete seasonal event will then follow from July 23 through August 6, with Arch-tempered Uth Duna arriving from July 30 through August 20, and the Fender Event Quest available from August 27 through September 24.
Even more Monster Hunter Wilds content and gameplay adjustments are set to arrive in the future, too. Free Title Update 3, for example, is scheduled to launch in late September, adding a new Monster as well as another Festival of Accord seasonal event.
