3 more CAPCOM crossovers we want beyond Resident Evil and Street Fighter
By Chad Porto
Fortnite has already brought in Street Fighter and Resident Evil, so here are three more franchises we want.
Fortnite brought in CAPCOM franchises in Street Fighter and Resident Evil, and in doing so really shook up what fans can expect from not only the Epic Games side of the coin, but the CAPCOM side as well. While we wait for the next installment of Resident Evil characters, we hope Fortnite will come around and drop some rare CAPCOM franchises into the game sooner rather than later.
And why shouldn’t be, there are so many franchises under that CAPCOM banner, so many so that not bringing in more via some sort of crossover would be a huge disappointment. If the individual crossover idea isn’t strong enough, maybe Fortnite could do its own version of the CAPCOM 5, which was five games unique to the Game Cube from the developers of Street Fighter and Resident Evil.
So whether it’s with the individual releases as we’ve seen with past video game crossovers, or whether it’s in their own version of the CAPCOM 5, these are just three of our picks for the next branded crossover.
Three more CAPCOM games we want in Fortnite
Devil May Cry
The fans would love Devil May Cry characters to pop up in Fortnite, especially with the most recent designs in DMC V, which had arguably the best-designed Virgil of all time. Once nothing more than a vailed Resident Evil concept, Devil May Cry rivals anyone under the banner at CAPCOM and fans everywhere would love characters from the title.
Viewtiful Joe
The folks who made Viewtiful Joe really nailed it. The art design, music, and gameplay are among some of the best the GameCube has ever seen. Bringing in the characters from this series, even if just as unlockable cosmetics or back blings and such, would be a big treat.
Okami
It would be hard to bring Okami in as a purchasable outfit, but what if it’s more of a glider? That or a back bling, but like with Viewtiful Joe, Okami was a game that just did so many things right and it should be celebrated for that.
