I suppose Monster Hunter is a big success for them even though I personally don't get the attraction with that game as I bought it and got bored really fast with it. I actually liked a few of the dead rising games but the formula got a little stale. I still think they should make a new Onimusha game.
I think if any developer is actually starting to get their mojo back after losing it, it's Capcom.

-Resident Evil VII was very well received and a big hit.
-Monster Hunter: World, great reviews and their best selling game ever.

Upcoming we have:

-Mega Man 11, first true new Mega Man game in 8 years after many thought the franchise was dead.
-Resident Evil 2 Remake. Looks awesome.
-Devil May Cry 5 -- also looks good, first game in the series in 5 years.

And they're doing a remaster of Onimusha coming out in January, so clearly testing the waters on that franchise again.
