Capcom leak reveals that Nintendo paid $6 million for timed exclusivity

[wraggster]

Not too long ago, Capcom was involved in a ransomware attack, which lead to over 1TB of internal data being stolen from the company. The information was leaked onto the internet, where fans were able to go through the data and learn plans that Capcom had yet to announce. One of those said documents which has recently gained traction is an agreement between Capcom and Nintendo, which led to the latter paying $6 million in order to secure 9 months of timed exclusivity for the upcoming Monster Hunter: Rise, including covering marketing costs and a flat development bonus. The exclusivity agreement also requires Capcom to wait 6 months after the reveal of Monster Hunter: Rise for the Switch before being able to announce it for other platforms, of which the documents also confirm will eventually be headed to PC.
