Capcom rail against PC piracy

News - DMC4 suffering as a result

Speaking on Capcom's blog, executive Christian Svensson has railed against the tidal wave of piracy on the PC platform.

He noted the vast quantities of file-sharers distributing copies of Devil May Cry 4 online, and is clearly both concerned and aggrieved.

"I’m not sure about how Capcom in general feels, but [the PC release] is not doing as well as I would like in the US at retail," he conceded.

"It’s such a good version and it really deserves better sales. I know it’s getting pirated to hell and back (it was up on torrents literally the day it shipped)."

Capcom certainly aren't the first publisher to note the levels of PC piracy with concern, and they probably won't be the last.
