Hideaki Itsuno retires from Capcom at the end of August.
X(@tomqe)I have a report for my followers. I have resigned from Capcom after 30 years and 5 months of service at the end of August 2024. Thank you for your long term support for the games and characters I have worked on. I would be happy if you continue to support Capcom's games and characters. I will start developing new games in September in a new environment. I hope to create a fun and beautiful game that will leave the same, or even more, lasting impression on you as before. Please look forward to my next work. Hideaki Itsuno
Mr. Itsuno joined Capcom in 1994. He has worked on many high-profile titles, including the "Justice Academy" series, the "Devil May Cry" series, and the "Dragon's Dogma" series.
He is also the author of "Dragon's Dogma 2", which will be released in March 2024 after a 12-year hiatus.
In September 2024, Capcom has already decided to start developing games in a new environment. We can look forward to Ituno's future and new games, and we can also look forward to playing the "Power Stone Series" and "Burn! Justice Academy," which will be released in 2025.
