What to expect from the Capcom Showcase 22

As Capcom stated, it will go more in-depth on previously announced games. During last week’s State of Play, Sony revealed the Resident Evil 4 remake and Resident Evil Village VR, as well as debuted Street Fighter 6‘s trailer. So we may see more information on them there.

Additionally, the multiplayer game Resident Evil Re:Verse might make an appearance too. After being delayed several times, it was rated in South Korea for Google Stadia last month.

Two other games that Capcom is working on are Exoprimal and Pragmata, which both have 2023 release windows. The former was revealed earlier this year and the latter was delayed multiple times. It’s possible we could get more on them as well.

Lastly, we might see Capcom go for one last push of the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak expansion before it launches on June 30.

What not to expect from the Capcom Showcase 22

As this presentation is focusing on previously announced games, don’t expect any new game announcements. However, the one wrinkle here is Summer Games Fest that’s airing on June 9. Capcom recently launched a 10th-anniversary website for Dragon’s Dogma, fueling speculation about a potential sequel announcement. If one does indeed get revealed at Summer Games Fest, that’s fair game for Capcom’s presentation. However, it’s likely Capcom won’t have much to share beyond an initial announcement.

Forget console wars. Steam Machine may help kill lazy PC gaming ports
Valve’s expensive mini PC could become PC gaming’s new baseline
Steam Machine with Steam Controller

Valve’s Steam Machine has become easy to dunk on. The price starts well above current consoles, and the hardware sits somewhere between entry-level and mid-range gaming PCs rather than a monster rig. Early reviews have also talked about how demanding games need upscaling, trimmed settings, and realistic expectations.

With the ongoing memory crisis, it sounds like a rough time to bring a PC to the couch. Though the Steam Machine doesn't need to beat high-end gaming PCs or the big consoles. Its purpose was different from the start. And what really makes it better is how it could shift the PC gaming segment entirely.

GTA 6 may not get the real physical release fans were hoping for
The game may come in a case, but not on a disc

Grand Theft Auto 6 pre-orders recently went live, but the excitement came with one frustrating catch. The so-called physical edition of the game will not include a disc. Instead, buyers will get a box with cover art and a download code inside.

That decision immediately caused backlash online, especially among collectors who still care about owning games on disc. For a while, there was some hope that this would only be temporary. Reports suggested that Rockstar could release a proper disc version of GTA 6 in December 2026, giving physical media fans something to wait for.

The Steam Machine launch hasn’t even happened, but the resale circus has begun
Scalpers are already trying to cash in on Valve’s Steam Machine

Valve has started sending out reservation emails for the Steam Machine ahead of its June 30 launch, and scalpers have wasted no time turning the whole thing into a comedy act.

The Steam Machine is already an expensive device, as RAM and SSD prices have made hardware pricing miserable across the industry. Valve has previously said it would like to lower the price if component costs improve. That makes the resale listings even harder to take seriously, because the official price was already higher than many people expected before scalpers added their own fantasy tax.
