Capcom’s new hair caps will turn you into a Licker and Palico

Capcom is launching a new line of unique hair caps, each based on a popular character from some of its most recognisable game franchises.
The Japanese game developer is known for creating iconic series such as Monster Hunter, Resident Evil (known as Biohazard in Japan), and Mega Man (known as Rockman in Japan).

These new hair caps allow fans to incorporate elements from these games into their daily routines in a practical and fun way.
Each hair cap is designed to be both useful and aesthetically pleasing, transforming fan favorite characters into three-dimensional, wearable items.
They can help reduce hair drying time after shampooing or serve as a convenient hair band during skincare routines.
The collection features four distinct designs:
- Palico (Hope Cat Series) from the Monster Hunter series.


- Palico (Acorn Cat Series) from the Monster Hunter series.


- Licker from the Resident Evil series.


- Mettaur from the Mega Man series.


The standout item in the collection is the Licker hair cap, which includes a button that allows its tongue to be attached to its side, recreating its “tongue out” look without compromising the functional use of the hair cap.
Each hair cap is priced at ¥3,300 (tax included) and will be available online starting May 29th, 2025, at 12:00 PM JST, followed by in-store sales on May 30th, 2025.
