Capcom is currently holding an exhibition that provides a deep dive into the celebrated Japanese publisher's history that isn't just for Capcom fans but anyone interested in the art of game creation.Held at the Nakanoshima Museum of Art in the company's home city of Osaka, running from March 20 until June 22, 2025, Capcom Creation: Movings Hearts across the globe features a treasure trove of exhibits, including original artwork and legendary design documents, showcasing both the creation and evolution of its most beloved franchises, including Street Fighter, Resident Evil (known as Biohazard in Japan), Monster Hunter, Mega Man, Ace Attorney, and more.Here are some of our highlights from this extraordinary exhibition, which not only covers the timeline of Capcom but breaks down different elements of the art of game creation, such as pixel art, motion capture, and VFX, while also offering some fun interactive exhibits. Character paradeVisitors begin the exhibition walking alongside iconic Capcom characters, whose animated likenesses are projected against a 52-foot-long screen covering the wall from top to bottom. Stay awhile to them all walking in single-file, grouped in their respective series. You might even catch one of them giving a wave to the crowd! The Capcom timelineA hugely comprehensive wall display chronicles Capcom from its founding in 1983 to the present day. What's most interesting is that while it naturally includes highlights from the company--such as its first game, arcade shooter Vulgus--it's done within the context of the wider history of video games, such as the launch of new platforms. Game logosThe exhibition includes plenty of Capcom art but its graphic design for its title logos for arcade and home releases it developed and published are just as iconic, and incidentally the first that you'll see displayed, albeit just for the Japanese versions. How many of these are you familiar with? Evolution of Capcom charactersWith so many iconic characters to choose from, this exhibit can only pluck one representative from each franchise, such as Ryu from Street Fighter. Nonetheless, it offers an interesting way to explore how each character was originally conceived and how their design has evolved over the years, by comparing concept sketches to figurines and final promotional key art. Character costumesOf course, such iconic characters also allow for interpretation from fans, such as cosplay. But an interesting bonus to this exhibit are the original costumes made for stage adaptations of Capcom games produced by the Takarazuka Revue, an all-female musical theater troupe, which include The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles and Sengoku Basara (the latter a PS2 Japanese exclusive as its localization, Devil Kings, replaces all the Japanese and Sengoku references for a more generic fantasy setting). Original key art paintingsYou may be familiar with key on game packaging and posters, but it's extra special when you can admire the original artwork, like acrylic paintings of the different editions of Street Fighter 2. It even makes you appreciate the art for the Western release of Mega Man, which had a very different aesthetic compared to the anime-inspired artwork in Japan, done using animation cells. Being transparent about creating pixel artIts first exhibit showing a look behind the scenes of game creation focuses on pixel art, with particular attention paid to Mega Man's iconic 8-bit look. But the most interesting display is a case study on how developers can use pixel art's limitations to create the illusion of transparency, showing Dhalsim's Yoga Fire in Street Fighter 2 as an example. Interactive exhibit: draw your own pixel artThis also has the first of the interactive exhibits, as you pick from a selection of classic Capcom characters rendered in 8-bit pixel art to see if you can recreate them pixel by pixel using the correct colors within a time limit. After you're finished, you'll be given a rank based on your performance and can even download your handiwork to share. Evolution of game animationUsing Ryu's Hadouken as an example, this display compares how game animation has evolved from the 2D pixel art to the modern 3D era. There's naturally a huge gulf in how things are done, especially when you consider that sprites designers essentially wore the hats of multiple specialties, including animation, modeling, facial modeling and visual effects. Interactive exhibit: making facial expressions as a game characterThis fun exhibit has mirrors that use a type of digitization technology that turns your facial movements and expressions into data. Then just pick from a handful of Capcom characters, from Street Fighter 6's Juri to Resident Evil Village's Lady Dimetrescu, and do your best gurning while the time allows! Interactive exhibit: see how sound effects are madeWhile mostly focusing on visuals, a part of the exhibition does give credit to the Capcom sound. It includes this interactive exhibit where you can pick from a selection of games and watch a short clip of a game alongside the ways the sound effects are created, from the Somnacanth's Song in Monster Hunter Rise to Jack Baker's terrifying chainsaw in Resident Evil 7. Using 3D scanning to capture realismThe pursuit of photorealistic graphics usually requires referencing real data, which Capcom has been able to achieve since moving to its incredible RE Engine. This exhibit provides a sample of what a 3D scanning rig looks like. What's interesting is that the team behind Devil May Cry 5 didn't just capture real models' faces but also made custom physical clothing that were then digitally scanned. Life-size 3D character modelsOne of the exhibition's highlights is showing the creation of 3D character models with life-sized replicas of Street Fighter 6's Chun-Li and Devil May Cry 5's Dante. You'll find just their blank 3D figures before projection mapping recreates each layer of a 3D model, from its geometry to the detailed textures. The Capcom manual of sketchy anatomical drawingsFormer Capcom artist Akira Yasuda (AKA Akiman) has character design credits including Final Fight, Street Fighter 2 and Power Stone. In the mid-90s, he also created this manual, translated as Sketchy Anatomical Drawings, which has been foundational to many Capcom designers creating characters with iconic Capcom-like anatomy, with meticulous attention paid to muscles and bone structure. Short film: Saori Yoshida vs RyuIn a section dedicated to fighting games, this short film made especially for the exhibition, puts legendary Olympic freestyle wrestler Saori Yoshida inside Street Fighter 6 in a match against Ryu. It's pretty short and amusing but also includes a behind-the-scenes look at how her movements and reactions were shot to match her virtual opponent. Perspectives, impact, and impressions with Resident Evil's cameraWhile a small Resident Evil-themed exhibit includes an interactive experience we couldn't photograph, it also features a display showing the three different camera perspectives the series has used in its history, including the fixed perspective (referred here as 'objective camera'), and their intended impact on the player experience. Interactive exhibit: motion capturing iconic posesThe last of the exhibition's interactive exhibits uses motion capture technology to let you recreate some iconic poses as your favorite Capcom characters. For instance, you attempt to point out your arm as Phoenix Wright when he makes an objection, or perform a Hadouken as Ryu. Legendary design documentsSaving perhaps the best until last, the real treasure of this exhibition is Capcom sharing some of its original design documents for a selection of its games, including arcade platformer SonSon, Monster Hunter, and Street Fighter 2. The latter includes not just the original sketches for stages compared to the final version but also sketches of each world warrior's move-sets in accordance with the inputs.

Not only will it feature all of the classic cutscenes from Snake Eater, but several new ones have been created for it as well. If you're unfamiliar with it, Secret Theater was originally an unlockable extra in Snake Eater that reimagined the endings to several cutscenes. These ranged from Snake causing a time paradox to legendary sniper The End falling in love with Eva, and the videos were originally only made for the eyes of Snake Eater's production team.These short clips were eventually placed on the official Snake Eater website, and several more were created thanks to them being popular with fans. The original videos will be found as collectibles inside the game, and for the new Secret Theater videos, players will have to track down enemy soldiers carrying rolls of film on their uniforms.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Dua Lipa has confirmed her engagement to the English actor Callum Turner, months after speculation began.She went on the record about the engagement in a cover story for British Vogue’s July issue, published Thursday, calling it “very exciting.” The 29-year-old said she was obsessed with the ring Turner had made for her.“It’s so me. It’s nice to know the person that you’re going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well,” she told the magazine.Fans had theorized the ring Lipa began sporting in photos at the end of December signaled an engagement, but the pair did not publicly confirm the rumor for months, even after appearing together at last month’s Met Gala. Lipa says they haven’t set wedding plans yet — she’s still on tour and Turner is filming, “so we’re just enjoying this period,” she told British Vogue, adding that they try not to spend more than 2 1⁄2 weeks apart.Images of Lipa and Turner, 35, together began surfacing in January 2024. She told British Vogue that they had initially met at a London restaurant, before reconnecting during a dinner in L.A., where they learned they were both reading the same book: Hernan Diaz’s “Trust,” a Pulitzer Prize winner. (Lipa runs the influential Service95 Book Club.)The London-born, British Albanian powerhouse is credited with revitalizing a kind of energetic disco-pop sound in the mainstream, beginning with the release of her 2017 self-titled album and carrying throughout 2020’s “Future Nostalgia” and 2024’s “Radical Optimism.”“Dance music has such a long history of creating such a safe space. And I just want to embody that,” she told The Associated Press last year.Across her career, Lipa has won three Grammys and boasts five top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100: 2017’s “New Rules,” 2019’s “Don’t Start Now,” 2020’s “Levitating,” 2021’s “Cold Heart (PNAU Remix)” with Elton John, and 2023’s “Dance the Night,” from the star-studded “Barbie” soundtrack.Turner is known for his roles in the “Fantastic Beasts” movies as well as the George Clooney-directed “The Boys in the Boat” and World War ll drama series “Masters of the Air” on Apple TV+.

"I just got my team shirts that say, 'Next week, things chill out,'" says New York-based aesthetician Sofie Pavitt, founder of eponymous skin-care brand Sofie Pavitt Face. It's ironic, of course, in light of the volatile market and current trade war impacting the beauty industry at large. "We don't really know when things will chill out."Chaos doesn't bode well for any kind of business, especially ones reliant on foreign imports that are now being taxed egregiously. While much is uncertain, it's clear this trade war will affect almost every sector of the beauty industry, from makeup to skin care and Botox injections. "I believe nearly every brand will feel some level of impact from the tariffs," predicts Cierra Sherwin, the founder and CEO of First Production Beauty, a beauty consulting company.Here, the people behind some of your favorite brands are sharing what they want you to know about the impact of tariffs on the beauty industry.Experts Featured in This ArticleCharlotte Palermino is the co-founder and chief brand officer of Dieux. Sofie Pavitt is an aesthetician and founder of skin-care brand Sofie Pavitt Face.Agatha Relota Luczo is the founder and CEO of Furtuna Skin.Claire is the co-founder of & Tread Well.Cierra Sherwin is the founder and CEO of First Production Beauty.Robert Schwarcz, MD, is a NYC-based plastic surgeon and aesthetics expert.How Global Trade Tariffs Impact BeautyGenerally speaking, these tariffs affect three key parts of the beauty supply chain: raw materials, manufacturing, and component packaging. Global IngredientsMost beauty brands import raw ingredients - like the oils and plant extracts used in their products - from countries where those ingredients are naturally abundant. For example, skin-care brand Furtuna grows and harvests its ingredients on a regenerative farm in Sicily. Brand founder Agatha Relota Luczo says that U.S. tariffs are a serious concern as they'll impact the cost of bringing these high-quality, potent, wild-forged naturals into the U.S. Pavitt says, despite being a U.S. brand, most of her raw materials are imported from various foreign suppliers. This is the norm for many brands. Simply put, the U.S. doesn't have the infrastructure to grow and harvest skin care, which is why we import it. "To make a [skin-care] ingredient here in the United States, you'd need to find the investment, then the farmland, then grow it, then process it and test it to ensure it's at the same standard," says Palermino. "All of this takes years."Component PackagingBeauty brands are also contending with heavy tariffs on their component packaging - think the metal tip on your lip balm or the airless pump inside your moisturizer. Chinese manufacturers have developed best-in-class packaging technology, which is why beauty brands have come to rely on them almost exclusively. "There are some packaging facilities in the United States, but they don't have the same capabilities as the prices you're seeing coming out of China," says Charlotte Palermino, the co-founder and chief brand officer of skin-care brand Dieux.Again, this problem cannot be solved by onshoring component production. "The TL;DR is that there isn't manufacturing capability in the U.S. to make these components," says Pavitt.International ManufacturingOur injectables, like Botox and filler products, rely on international manufacturing and are thus subject to tariff price increases, too. While it's a household name in the U.S., Botox Cosmetic, a product of Allergan, recently acquired by AbbVie, is produced in Ireland and then imported here. Botox alternatives are international, too. "Dysport, manufactured by Galderma, is primarily produced in Canada, Sweden, Brazil, and France," says NYC-based plastic surgeon Robert Schwarcz, MD. The list goes on and on. It's a similar story for hyaluronic-acid filler products. Beauty tech devices - most manufactured in China - are now subject to super-high import duties, which have already affected prices. Earlier this month, Foreo, the Stockholm-based skin-care device company with manufacturing operations in China, announced a 20 to 30 percent price increase on its products to take effect in late April 2025. What to Know About Pricing In short, tariffs may erode accessibility, making affordable beauty products less affordable. Mass market brands operate on high-volume imports from China and sell at a low price point in the U.S. "So any cost increases resulting from the tariffs are more likely to be passed directly to the consumer," says Sherwin. "As a result, shoppers in this segment may notice pricing shifts sooner than those purchasing from prestige or luxury brands." Translation: Beauty tariffs will impact those with the least spending power.That said, the current sentiment from Pavitt and many other brand founders is to stay calm and keep prices stable. "There's a lot going on, but I don't think it's fair to pass that panic onto a customer yet when we don't know how it's going to shake out," says Pavitt.Claire Loughran, co-founder at & Tread Well, says her pricing plan is to initially try to absorb the increased tax on international imports."That's our goal. And if we do have to make them, we're hopeful that price changes will not be too drastic," she saysThe price of in-office injectables, such as Botox and filler products, also remains unchanged for the time being at many offices. "I'm holding off on making any changes until there's more clarity around the specific tariffs - especially which countries and products are affected," says Dr. Schwratz.It's still too early to tell when we can expect any changes to take effect, but most brands and companies are in a holding pattern until there's more data on how tariffs affect margins. "Early next year is when you'll start to see price differences," predicts Pavitt. "I'm guessing more companies will wait until 2026."So, What Does This Mean?Pivots are happening in real time, and pricing remains precarious. "By the time I answer your question, another tariff could be placed on another good or country," says Palermino.This may lead to less spending. "From a consumer behavior standpoint, we could see people purchasing more selectively or rebuying less frequently," says Shewin.However, Pavitt is confident that the beauty industry will fare better than others. "It's definitely going to raise prices, but I'm slightly hopeful that the beauty industry isn't going to be as crazily impacted as, say, a car company or a handbag company," she says.
