Capcom revises down DmC: Devil May Cry sales by 800k

The initial target for sales had been 2 million units for Ninja Theory’s DmC: Devil May Cry by the end of this fiscal year for Capcom, but that looks most unlikely as the publisher drops it to 1.2 million.

So far around one million has been shipped. Despite receiving a top spot in charts, DmC has failed to at least match sales figures for Devil May Cry 4 at launch, achieving just a third in the UK.

PC sales aren’t included in the Capcom spread sheet of misery. The new DmC also sold less than half of Devil May Cry 4 during launch week in Japan. Trouble ahead?
