After Devil May Cry 5 outsells Monster Hunter Wilds in Capcom's latest financial quarter, publisher's share prices tumble


Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series.

After the successful launch of Monster Hunter Wilds earlier this year, the keystone franchise for the developer appears to have hit a snag, as sales have declined rapidly in the post-launch window. Our reviewer seemed to like it to some degree, although popular consensus would say that it's a bit too juvenile for most tastes (and deviates a fair amount from the source material, to boot). Despite share price woes in the short term, it's clear Capcom is still in a very healthy place, and - here's hoping - we'll get an announcement about the future of the Devil May Cry series soon.
