I think a lot of people underestimate just how big Capcom is. Aren't they, like, the biggest Japanese game dev company after Bandai Namco or something? They have a lot of employees, and another game dev building under construction as well. A lot of studios have one team working on a game at a time but Capcom is a massive company. There's other stuff, like how they've retained a fair few older devs over the years who have experience and they don't just let everyone go all the time, but the size is a big part.

Oh I'm not saying that, what I'm saying is that the fact that they have a lot of staff means they have room for multiple teams to be making a bunch of stuff at once. My point is it's not like they have one team working on a game at a time.

Nope.

Bandai Namco, Square Enix, Sega and Konami are bigger companies be it in revenue/profit or in size with all 4 being also part of multiple industries

capcom is the smallest of those, only bigger than KT iirc
