Video game publisher Capcom announces that it will deliver strong marketing support for two of its upcoming titles, Monster Hunter 4 and Lost Planet 3, in order to get an operating profit for the coming fiscal year.

In a briefing to investors, the company states that it “will take an aggressive stance focusing to promote large-scale titles ‘Monster Hunter 4’ (for Nintendo 3DS) and ‘Lost Planet 3’ (for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360) focused on the domestic and overseas markets.”

Lost Planet 3 will be the first title launched, mixing on-foot sequences with mech-based action on the frozen planet of E.D.N. III.

Monster Hunter 4, a sure hit with fans of the series, will be launched in the summer on the Japanese market. It’s not yet clear when the game will be delivered to Western players.
