You can see part of the Cedar Woods intro sequence with Rei, Ryu, and the Currs on the side screen. This is a still taken from the Capcom Friendly Club CFC Style VHS Vol. 1 (May '96), given out to club members.

The 200,000 unit increase is no doubt thanks to Breath of Fire IV’s PC re-release on GOG and Steam. Keep up the good work, BoF fans!
The sales numbers are taken from Capcom's recent August 7th sales data update and reflect sales data up to June 30, 2026: https://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/business/salesdata.html
Squaresoft collaborated with Capcom Japan to bring the first game overseas.

Who was your ride-or-die party lineup? 🐉🐦🐺🔓🐟🐂🐍🕳️
Did you make the mayor of Parch weep with joy over your shisu recipe?
💨 + Frost = Jolt ⚡
💨 + Iceblast/Icicle = Lightning ⚡⚡
💨 + Blizzard = Thunderstorm ⛈️
💨 + 💧 + Pa Bing'ah (requires a cheat device) = Mjollnir ⚡⛈️⚡
Interestingly, Mjollnir normally cannot be pulled off by the player without a cheat device. That's because Ryu does not normally have access to the "Pa Bing'ah" dragon water spell (only Fou-Lu does). Otherwise, the spell can be inflicted on the party by the boss Dragonne.
By the way, the YouTube version of this video has captions for the voiceovers, if you're interested!
In the latest update by the Video Game History Foundation, there is some vintage E3 1997 footage featuring a Capcom sizzle reel of Breath of Fire III filmed by developer and attendee Anthony Parisi!

Q18: Please tell us what Capcom brands or series you like. *Please select all that apply.
Breath of Fire is a selectable choice in this list. Be sure to select it!
Q19: If you have any requests or additional thoughts about Capcom digital events, feel free to share them here.
This is where you write in your requests for more Breath of Fire! If you’re not sure what to write, consider something like the following blurb:
“Please bring back the Breath of Fire series. Breath of Fire IV’s PC re-release on GOG last year and Steam this past April was a great start, but I really want to see Breath of Fire I – V get ported and/or remastered for all consoles and PC, in addition to remakes and brand new Breath of Fire titles. It would be excellent to include Breath of Fire content in cross-collaborations with other Capcom games. Please offer more Breath of Fire merchandise, as well. The franchise has been inactive for too long, and it would be a dream come true to see Capcom give it proper attention again.”
Breath of Fire IV introduced a fun combo system that lets you mix spells to great effect. Here’s a breakdown of the Fire+Wind mix combos you can pull off.
