Capcom: 93% of sales are digital, will keep physical

Capcom reported that 93% of its game sales were digital in 2026, up from 90% in 2024. The company forecasts the digital share will rise to 95.4% in the current fiscal year and plans to continue releasing physical editions.

The numbers were disclosed in Capcom’s financial results presentation. The developer confirmed a steady increase in digital sales over the past two years and provided the 2024, 2026 and current fiscal year figures.

Capcom attributed the trend to growing use of digital distribution channels and changes in how players buy games. The company did not provide a breakdown of digital sales by platform, region or individual titles, nor did it detail how a higher digital mix will affect production, distribution or retail partnerships.

The presentation included a direct comment on physical demand, stating that ‘a significant number of end users demand physical games.’ Capcom plans to continue producing retail discs and boxed copies to serve customers who prefer physical ownership, special editions or collectibles.

The figures were part of Capcom’s financial reporting for the period. The company released no further quantitative detail in the presentation.
