Capcom and Konami have both announced showcases for this month

Two major Japanese gaming publishers have announced showcase events scheduled for September 2026. Konami Press Start is set to air earlier in the month, while Capcom Spotlight will take place later in September.

These digital showcase events have become standard industry practice for major publishers to announce new games, provide updates on upcoming releases, and share development insights directly with fans and media. Both Capcom and Konami regularly use these presentation formats to reveal their planned releases and strategic direction.

Konami Press Start and Capcom Spotlight represent important moments for fans of both publishers’ franchises, which span popular series including Metal Gear, Castlevania, Gradius, and others for Konami, and titles like Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Devil May Cry, and Street Fighter for Capcom. These events are typically livestreamed and allow the companies to reach global audiences simultaneously.
