Dead Rising 3 and Monster Hunter 4 were the star performers for Capcom during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, the publisher has revealed.

Xbox One exclusive Dead Rising 3 sold 1.2 million copies as of March 31, up from the 1 million units shipped as of December 20, 2013.

Capcom hasn’t offered details on the success of the Dead Rising 3 DLC.

Monster Hunter 4 on 3DS eclipsed all others, however, shipping a pretty hefty 4.1 million units since launch in September 2013. The game becomes Capcom’s sixth best-selling game of all time. The franchise has now sold over 28 million units.

Look out for a localised version here in 2015.

Elsewhere Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Dual Destinies “basically achieved” its projected sales, while DuckTales: Remastered overperformed.

Lost Planet 3 sold below Capcom’s expectations, but we already knew this.

For the year Capcom reported sales of 102 billion yen (£592m) and profits of 3.4 billion yen (£20m).
