In a recent interview with Famitsu (as translated by ResetEra), Capcom's senior producer Jun Takeuchi said the Japanese company wanted to expand in size so it could handle four major projects at once.
"If we keep gradually increasing the size of our staff, I'm thinking that at some point maybe we might be able to handle four triple-A titles at once."
Apart from the three games already in development, Takeuchi teased a fourth game is actually already in production, saying how fans would be surprised when it was finally revealed:

"We're currently working on a title that will make our fans think, 'Wow, they're making that?'"
So, what are the other three games already in development? Destructoid narrows it down to Devil May Cry 5, the Resident Evil 2 remake and the remaster of Onimusha: Warlords - which has been announced for multiple platforms including the Nintendo Switch. All of these titles are due out early next year.
What do you think the other mystery game could be? Leave your thoughts below.

Whatever it is, I just can't muster any anticipation for its reveal. Capcom really kicked me in the shin with DMC5's microtransaction garbage, and I'm nervous for all of their franchises.
Megaman X9 would be nice, given that they released the Legacy Collection 1+2 on Switch shortly before MM 11.
But will it be a good or a bad surprise, that's the question.
It'll surprise fans by being Viewtiful Joe 3 and appearing on every console but Switch.
Capcom has killed the fans hype before with Mega Man.
Let's wait and see. Hopefully they can deliver.
Seeing as how Viewtiful Joe is out of the question (it’s a more complicated situation than people realize), I’m going to gamble on a long shot: a new Ghouls and Ghosts!
Here's to holding out a sliver of hope for Gotcha Force 2.
I really hope its Maximo 3, or atleast a Maximo 1/2 HD Remaster.
Viewtiful Joe 3
Maximo 3
Final Fight 4
I'll believe when I see it. Too many devs have been teasing games lately building hype only to be let down.
This is way too vague for me to get excited. I'm shocked he even bothered hinting anything this early.
Bionic Commando 2: Wife Arm’s Revenge
Pulling for Mega Man X9
In before it's a new 2D platformer that they refuse to bring to the Switch, citing performance reasons.
I'm thinking Mega Man Legends.
Disney Afternoon HD remake ??
Cross X Beats by Naoki Maeda ??
Monster Hunter Stories sequel on Switch ??
Something like Dragon Quest Builders ??
Mega Man Legends 3, please.
These are the games/franchises I want revisited:
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs
Demon's Crest
Final Fight
Ghosts 'N Goblins/Ghouls 'N Ghosts
Gun.Smoke
Knights of the Round
Little Nemo: The Dream Master
Lost Planet
Magic Sword
Saturday Night Slam Masters
Trojan
U.N. Squadron
A horse racing whodunit, obviously. That's what the people want.
The last one will shock you!
Mega Man X9!
...Please?
Don't get your hopes up. It's an arcade style fighting game for consoles, but you still have to give them a quarter every time you take a turn.
Street Fighter VI?
I hope it's a horse racing game /s
“Wow, they’re making that?”
That can mean only one thing: Mega Man X7 HD Remake with twice the raw suckage!
A resident evil game where YOU'RE the zombie
@nintendobynature Lol Nice username.
And I personally think it’s Onimusha. I’d like it to be a Capcom vs SNK 3 but, that’s not happening.
Powerstone! Do it Capcom!!!
Whoa they will make a proper Breath of Fire sequel for multiple platform
@Hordak
The gun.smoke was remade as red dead revolver. Capcom actually started the red dead games before it was handed off to rockstar.
@CptBiasAran haha it only seemed fitting. Who doesn't love Nintendo and naughty by nature? I had to mesh the two!
Rival Schools 3
Breath of Fire reboot let's go!
A) will that game come out on switch?
B) where is USFIV Capcom?! You can’t tell me the switch can’t run it.
C) kinda nervous when studios make statements like this because it’s a toss up. It will either be amazing or terrible.
D) deep down?
E) I hope they finish porting onimusha first. I don’t need them wandering off like they have the attention span of a goldfish.
Mega Man Soccer Puzzle Drop Pinball DX
@nintendobynature Haha and thus, excellence was born, my dude!
@BanjoPickles serious question, why is Viewtiful Joe complicated? Are there ownership issues?
A new Chaos Legion, please. Or Zack & Wiki 2.
Unfortunately I doubt it will be for a Nintendo system.
CAPtain COMmando 2 maybe? Lol, but whatever it is, I'm sure Capcom will make a special announcement about how it will not be coming to Switch.
Obviously it's Dino Crisis, this game has been asked by the community for ages now.
Other bets would be Captain Commando or a new Dark Stalker.
It's another horse racing game.
Phoenix Wright Vs. Rathalos, you heard it here first.
New Ghouls n Ghosts please ..or a new IP
A remake of that Aladdin snes game.
Anything for switch that isn’t a port or rehash of an old game.
It's 2018 Capcom, nothing to care about. Even if it is something interesting they'll find a way to screw it up and of course release with terrible support in Europe.
Power stone collection
Viewtiful joe collection
CAPCOM VS SNK 3...pretty pleassse
....Still waiting on a new Monster Hunter....
@Hordak Nice list. I'd add Black Tiger.
Mega Man Legends 3 or Mega Man X9
It's Capcom. It's 'triple A'. This isn't about the Switch.
Capcom Presents
'A Terrible Game'
Gamers: Wow! They're making this garbage?!
Im not going to get hyped yet, show it too me
Mega Man is the wrong reply to "wow, they're making that".
God Hand 2 or perhaps God Hands. Now that would be a surprise!
RE4 HD for switch, duh. Fortnite and Skyrim are trying to take RE4's title as "3D game ported to most systems" so they need to defend the belt.
@RedMageLanakyn RE4 has already been announced...
@Frenean lol. a bummer huh
Don't let the hype get too high before they announce another old SF hd remake
Knights of the Round as a Warriors style hack ’n slash.
Minish cap remastered for switch
Powerstone (3)? with online multiplayer.
Making vague promises and announcements like that does not stir confidence in me, it evokes a sense of dread and sometimes anger.
I could assume remasters of Onimusha 2 and 3 are coming, but it might be a new Viewtiful Joe (who I’ll put money on being a DLC fighter for Smash)
Mega man x9
Street fighter 6 (no microtransactions)
Viewtiful Joe 3
It better be the real Breath of Fire V. I don't count Dragon Quarter and that lame mobile game as part of the main line BOF games.
@MysticGengar if there's gonna be a new Street Fighter it's gonna be a new Street Fighter Alpha. And by that I mean the game will be unfinished and literally in alpha like when SF5 launched
All I need is a new Ace Attorney game!
I saw Onimusha Warlords in the Coming Soon of the eShop, watched the video, and it looked horrible to me, idk. I see myself still playing it though as I never played Onimusha properly. Hopefully the real game looks better than that...
"Wow, they're making that?" Finally, the long-awaited sequel to P.N.03!!!!
Ooh! A new IP maybe?
@Prizm
I would actually be down for that.
@brandonbwii
Shh. holds finger to nose Don't jinx us.
Mega Hunter Cry: Hyper Turbo Edition!
@hippoeater God I wish it was Power Stone. It's not though. Just so we're clear .
Zack and Wiki 2? Absolutely fine with that Capcom.
Capcom hasnt given me any reason to be excited about any of their releases, so maybe when its actually announced and if its actually on the Switch then I might be interested.
Until then they could give me a port of the arcade version of Strider to placate me.
