Capcom has opened a countdown website, maybe an announcement for later this month. The countdown will end in six days, at 2pm JST on February 21, 2022 (12am EST / 5am CEST).
The official Capcom Twitter account posted a tweet linking to the site just minutes after the countdown passed the six-day mark. The tweet includes only two emojis: an hourglass and an eye. While there are no further details on what the announcement will lead to, there are a few notable possibilities.
