Capcom has officially acquired Minimum Studios, turning it into a subsidiary through a purchase of shares.

The animation production company, based in Taiwan, has a track record of collaborating with Capcom on several projects such as Resident Evil Village, the remake of Resident Evil 4, and Dragon's Dogma 2.

Established in 2018, Minimum Studios focuses on keyframe animation and motion capture technology.
