Capcom's New Compilation Takes the Lead!

The highly anticipated **Capcom Fighting Collection 2** hit the shelves earlier this month and has already captured the attention of gamers in Japan. With positive reviews pouring in, it's no surprise that this compilation quickly soared to the top of the sales charts upon its release.

Impressive Launch Numbers!

According to insights from Gematsu, during the week of May 12–18, **Capcom Fighting Collection 2** claimed the number one spot in Japan, moving an impressive **7,801 copies** on the Nintendo Switch alone! When combined with the **4,184** copies sold on PlayStation 4, the total first-week sales exceed **11,985 units**. These figures only account for physical copies, indicating that the digital sales are likely even higher!

Beating the Competition!

Notably, this performance marks a stronger debut than that of SNK's **Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves**, which failed to break the **10,000 copies** mark at launch. In fact, **Fatal Fury** recently disappeared from the top rankings, hinting at a sluggish market response just weeks after its release.

What the Critics Are Saying!

On the critical front, the **Capcom Fighting Collection 2** is holding strong with a respectable **Metacritic score of 81** on PS4. To further engage with fans, Capcom has initiated an official survey to gather player feedback, demonstrating their commitment to community involvement.
