Capcom Spotlight returns June 25 with Onimusha, Dragon's Dogma II, and Monster Hunter news
Capcom has confirmed a new Spotlight stream for June 25, 2026 at 11 p.m. CEST (5 p.m. ET / 2 p.m. PT), available on YouTube, Twitch, and X. Three games are on the agenda: Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Dragon's Dogma II: Dark Arisen, and Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection. If you've been tracking any of these releases, this is the one stream worth catching live.
The lineup
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is the most closely watched of the three. The samurai action game — the first new Onimusha in roughly 20 years — carries an official release date of September 25, 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC (Windows), and Nintendo Switch 2. That date puts it in direct competition with Control: Resonant and Silent Hill: Townfall, both slated for September 24. Retailer listings at Best Buy and PNP Games have quietly shifted to September 4, suggesting Capcom may be eyeing an earlier window to sidestep that congestion. Insider Gaming reports the change but notes no official Capcom statement has been made — making the Spotlight a natural place to clarify.
Dragon's Dogma II: Dark Arisen has a confirmed launch date of October 9, 2026. Capcom's Steam page lists the expansion DLC at $29.99 and a bundle with the base game at $49.99. The Nintendo Switch 2 version packages both together. UK and EU pricing hasn't been officially confirmed yet, so regional figures remain to be announced. The Dark Arisen name echoes the 2013 expanded re-release of the original Dragon's Dogma, which was widely regarded as the definitive edition of that game.
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection already launched on March 13, 2026 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, and PC. Its inclusion in a new Spotlight suggests Capcom has DLC or a collaboration to announce rather than anything new to reveal about the base game.
A Capcom Spotlight arrives on June 25, 2pm PT, focused on #MHStories3, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. Tune in to the 30-minute livestream for a round-up of the latest news updates on our announced lineup of games.

What to watch for
The Onimusha date question is the headline item. If Capcom moves it to September 4, that's a meaningful change for anyone who pre-ordered or built plans around the original window. The Dark Arisen regional pricing is the other gap — $29.99 is a reasonable DLC price in US dollars, but UK and European players are still waiting on confirmed figures before deciding which version to buy.
The stream runs roughly 20 minutes based on past Spotlights. All three games are already on sale or in pre-order at major retailers.
