Capcom will showcase playable demos of Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, the new Mega Man title, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, and Street Fighter 6 at Gamescom 2026. The booth features 60 stations across more than 950 square meters with live German-language programming.
Following player feedback that the demo felt too easy, director Akihito Kadowaki posted a video on the official Onimusha X account stating the final game’s difficulty will differ.

Capcom confirmed official Mega Man and Roll outfits for Pragmata at Gamescom Opening Night Live, after years of denying the game was secretly part of that series. No unlock date or price was given.
Capcom will hold a Spotlight showcase on June 25 focused on the next Monster Hunter Stories, Dragon's Dogma 2's Dark Arisen DLC, and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. The event arrives as the publisher reports multi-million sales from its February releases of Pragmata and Resident Evil Requiem.
Capcom will discontinue Dragon's Dogma 2's deluxe edition and remove several progression microtransactions on 24-25 June ahead of the Dark Arisen expansion. The changes come with a permanent base-game discount and a two-part improvement roadmap for the title that has seen no major updates in over a year.
Capcom announced Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance during State of Play, a 2027 PS5 expansion featuring new monsters like Gundoraja, the Skybound Eyrie locale, and a story set years after the base game. It introduces Boost Action combat enhancements for all weapon types and continues the Expedition Team's adventures in the Forbidden Lands.
The sequel exits early access as version 1.0 on December 11, 2026, and becomes free-to-play across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. After more than a year of paid testing, the full build will include sign-ups that grant exclusive launch rewards.
