A large-scale data leak from a Japanese publisher is actively discussed on the network Capcom – the famous company was the victim of a hacker attack, which entailed theft of a huge amount of internal confidential information. Among the stolen files that have leaked onto the network, there are all sorts of legal documents, as well as plans for the development and distribution of various projects, both already announced and in the early stages of production.
In addition, the company’s general plans for a new cultural ethics have been leaked to the network, which should guide all future developments of the publishing house.
Significant attention in these documents is paid to the issues of representativeness of minorities, as well as ideas of inclusiveness.…
As the closest reference point for a well-crafted black character, Capcom’s internal documentation mentions Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales from Sony Interactive Entertainment… If we talk about the representation of sexual minorities, here Capcom will focus primarily on projects such as The Last of Us Part II – also from Sony… Examples also include Shadow of the tomb raider…

In an attempt to match the current cultural background Capcom is going to give users as much choice as possible in self-expression (for example, by allowing any customization settings in the character editor, regardless of gender), to minimize the use of elements and stereotypes that may seem offensive or racist, and also to work more closely with third-party companies- localizers in an attempt to correctly adapt content for a wide variety of markets and regions.
Talking about the sexuality of the characters, Capcom noted the need to reflect this aspect in the context of the plot – they will not just throw sex bombs on the screen. At the same time, the developers will try to make both attractive female characters and male ones – without excesses in sexualization.
