Capcom looking to focus its announcements around other events in 2013.
Capcom isn't planning to hold its annual Captivate event this year, the publisher has confirmed. It has been running the event, which is designed to showcase its annual lineup, since 2008.
"This year we're likely to be looking at announcements around other events or not at events at all. So there isn't a Captivate planned this year," said Capcom staffer Sven on the Capcom Unity forums.
Capcom will, however, be attending E3, Comic-Con, and PAX.
Capcom is currently working on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and Wii U versions of the well-liked 3DS adventure Resident Evil: Revelations, and Capcom veteran Yoshinoro Ono unveiled the studio's newest game, Deep Down, as part of Sony's PlayStation 4 announcement last week.
The publisher is also working on Ace Attorney 5 and Monster Hunter 4 and will be releasing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on the 3DS and Wii U in North America and Europe in March.
Last year Captivate was held in Rome; in 2011 it took place in Miami.
Martin Gaston has absolutely never at all had the song from Beauty and the Beast sung to him at any point during his life, ever.
@hyper_trunkx nope they will be releasing super duper ultimate street fighter IV ki$s my aSS edition and ultimate mega blockbuster marvel vs crapcom arcade edition version 1000b

Smart financial move really. They're saving costs by piggy backing on other events that they don't have to organize and were probably already going to attend anyway.
1 Like New Megaman, Dragon Dogma2, Dead Rising 3 and Resident Evil 7 with Panta Rhei Engine and of course Deep Down :)
I want a new Streetfighter Capcom and no On Disc Dlc funny business. LOL who i'm kidding we'll propbably have to pay to unlock half the roster and the file size will be 100kb
This could be for no reason.but it may have something to do with a possible April 26 xbox 720 reveal

@BoatlessG Maybe they've planned with Microsoft to announce some games for the 720 (possibly with some early exclusivity deals) to help bolster interest in the console, so they can't announce them till the 720 reveal. In which case it would just make more sense to marry their two events.
Dark Arisen adds some great new content to the excellent Dragon's Dogma, though the new dungeon's unbalanced difficulty turns fun into frustration.
