On March 25, UNIQLO held an event to celebrate the launch of “CAPCOM 40th UT,” a collection celebrating Capcom’s 40th anniversary.
This special collection collaborates with seven of Capcom’s greatest titles in video game history: “Makai Mura,” “Mega Man,” “Final Fight,” “Street Fighter II,” “Devil May Cry,” “Monster Hunter,” and “Resident Evil RE:4.
The lineup will consist of eight exclusive UNIQLO items, seven of which are based on motifs from different games and one featuring a group of Capcom’s popular characters.
Also, from today until March 31, a 3-meter high “giant arcade machine” will be set up in the UNIQLO Harajuku store where visitors can play “UT ADVENTURE,” an original game supervised by CAPCOM. This “action shopping game” consists of three stages, in which the main character tries to recover the “CAPCOM 40th UT,” which has been stolen by aliens while fighting against them.
With a retro atmosphere reminiscent of 40 years ago when CAPCOM was founded, the game is said to be enjoyable for both those who were familiar with video games back then and those who are unfamiliar with 8-bit games. The game can also be played on a special page on the official UNIQLO website.
Stage 1,” in which Street Fighter characters appear in the motif of a UNIQLO store, “Stage 2,” the space stage where Mega Man unfolds, and “Stage 3,” the conclusion of the story, are revealed only in the “mini-arcade game machines” of which there are only 40 in the world. The story’s conclusion, “Stage 3,” is revealed only on the “mini arcade game machine,” of which only 40 exist in the world.
A campaign to win an actual miniature arcade game machine and a “CAPCOM 40th UT” in its original packaging is also underway until March 31.
Actress Mai Shiraishi, who serves as the image cast of UNIQLO:C, and former wrestler Saori Yoshida, who is also the subject of a “Street Fighter 6” web commercial, appeared as special guests at the launch event held at the UNIQLO Harajuku store on the same day.
Shiraishi showed off a white CAPCOM 40th UT with a beige wide pants style, saying, “The back print with all of Capcom’s representative characters is awesome! I feel protected. I feel protected.” “Please find your favorite from the eight different collections and enjoy the fashion.
When asked by the MC about his favorite characters, Mr. Yoshida, who is also a fighting game enthusiast and a member of the Stofi generation, said, “I used Ryu and Ken for a long time. They move quickly and their moves match my own, so I can relate to them.
When he tried his hand at playing the giant arcade game machine set up in the store, he struggled with the difficulty level and looked excited, and he called out, “I hope you will come to the store and experience the power of this game.
Both “CAPCOM 40th UT” items are available in short-sleeved (oversized fit) XS-4XL and are priced at 1,990 yen each. They will be available at UNIQLO stores nationwide and online.
