Mark your calendars, gamers and art enthusiasts! The Great Capcom Exhibition: Game Creations that Captivate the World is coming to the Nakanoshima Museum of Art in Osaka from March to June of 2025.
Celebrating over four decades of groundbreaking video game innovation, the exhibition highlights Capcom’s rich history. Founded in Osaka in 1983, Capcom has brought us legendary titles like Street Fighter, Resident Evil, and Monster Hunter, all of which have shaped global gaming culture. Visitors can dive into the creative ingenuity behind Capcom’s masterpieces, from concept art and original designs to the evolution of pixel art and sound effects.
The exhibition will span four immersive areas: the Game Chronicle section is set to explore Capcom’s timeline and showcase classic consoles and software, while Technology x Art x Ideas looks at the artistry and technical mastery behind their games. Don’t miss Capcom Creates Unparalleled Fantasy, where popular characters like Street Fighter's Chun-Li are reimagined using cutting-edge projection mapping. Finally, the Bonus Stage offers hands-on experiences, such as motion capture demonstrations and pixel art creation.
General admission is 3000 JPY, with discounts for students and special family-friendly pricing. For devoted fans, refill tickets are available (5600 JPY) — they allow two entries to experience the exhibition in greater detail.
Whether you’re a lifelong Capcom fan or fairly new to their creations, this exhibition is set to be a must-visit celebration of Japanese gaming culture and its global impact.
