The exhibition explores the creative history, technologies, and characters behind Capcom’s globally influential video games, offering visitors an in-depth look at the company’s approach to game development.

Organised by the Yomiuri Shimbun and CREATIVE MUSEUM TOKYO, with special cooperation from Capcom, the exhibition traces the evolution of Capcom’s game creation process through original materials, character displays, and interactive experiences. Featured franchises include Rockman, Street Fighter, Resident Evil, and Monster Hunter, all of which have played a major role in shaping global gaming culture.

A special gallery tour event will be held on February 2, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:45 p.m., at CREATIVE MUSEUM TOKYO. The tour will be led by Takayuki Nakayama, director of Street Fighter 6, together with exhibition producer Yasuyuki Makino. Participants will be guided through the exhibition while learning about behind-the-scenes stories and the creative process behind the displays. The event is limited to 40 participants and is free of charge, with advance registration required. The tour is in Japanese.

The exhibition also offers a wide range of exclusive merchandise. Highlights include a special-edition official exhibition catalogue with a sleeve case featuring the exhibition’s key visual, clear files reproducing original planning documents from classic Capcom titles, lenticular postcards inspired by projection-mapped displays of Chun-Li and Dante, pixel-art character rubber keychains, and a complete boxed set of character parade postcards.

In addition, collaboration food and drink items inspired by Capcom’s game worlds and characters are available, allowing visitors to enjoy themed menu offerings alongside the exhibition experience.
